Paint/fabric protection package

We are in the process of purchasing a Winnebago View from Lichtsinn RV in Iowa. They are trying to sell us a exterior/interior protection package called Protect that is guaranteed for 5 years. No waxing and the bugs come off easily. I got a paint protection on our current RV 5years ago and it lasted 6 months was reapplied and lasted another 6 months. Needless to say, I'm some what leary of these products. Is any one familiar with this product and how well it works?

I worked at a dealership in the 90's as well. They really pushed the ceramic coating on the cars with a 5 year guarantee. I was talking with the installer and ask if there was any maintenance involved after the application. His reply was he would recommend a good paste wax twice a year.

OP these treatments do nothing more than lighten your wallet.

You didn't purchase the extended warranty for $$$$ did you? Pretty much worthless gimmicks that reward the seller generously.

This is the answer to the OP's question.

Put your $$'s into a good hand/paste exterior wax job. If you have slides-get the sides and top waxed as well

I think you already know the answer . The only thing that allows rv protection is a roof.
