Hi
I have ordered a Macan S recently and have already received an email from the dealer regarding PPF from Topaz London. I have also read about Gtechniq coating etc here.
My situation is that I am not that obscessive about the car. I drive around 50miles daily on dual carriageway for work. I normally will pay for your typical hand wash service off the A road. My previous cars had coating from the dealer and I found that helped to keep the car clean. I am OK to pay for similar again.
Given the situation, should I go for any special coating? Which type?
Many thanks for any input.
PPF / Gtechniq/ no coating
If you’re not particularly obsessive, don’t wash the car youself and rely on local hand car washes then don’t waste your £600 (?) on a coating...

Yes, agree with not spending £600.
Some of the dealer coatings appear to be quite good for keeping the car clean. My son had a Mercedes that never looked dirty. Might be worth getting something like that if it is a reasonable price.

I would save your money if you are not obsessive. A lot of people on here are obsessive and, for them, a coating is worthwhile. However, if you are planning on keeping the car a long time then a decent ceramic coating and/or PPF film will keep it looking much nicer for longer

In that case, don't waste your money on any paint protection.
