Title: Car version of Scotchguard ?
Post by: albitz on 16 November 2011, 18:14:20: A mate has just bought a 1 year old Fiat (yes I know !) and the dealer tried to charge him a silly amount of money to coat the seats with a product which prevents staining and makes it easier to clean. I ve heard of similar (scotchguard ?) for furniture in the home.Anyone know the details,name of the product etc. which is used in cars ?
