Why protect a new car straight away?

New cars rarely arrive perfect. Dealer prep washes often leave light swirls, and there's usually fallout and residue on the paint from transport and storage. Factory clear coats are also thinner than they used to be, which makes them easier to mark.

Protecting the paint now means you're keeping a good finish good, rather than paying to correct it in a couple of years.

What's included

A full wash, chemical decontamination and a clay bar, then a light machine polish to take out any dealer marks. After that we coat the paint and the wheel faces with Reign's 7-year package.

  • Full wash, chemical and mechanical decontamination
  • Light machine polish
  • Reign 7-year coating on the paint
  • Reign on the wheel faces
  • Glass coating available as an upgrade

The process

How it's done, step by step.

The order matters: every step makes the next one safer and more effective.

  1. 01

    Full wash

    Wheels, arches, door shuts, pre-wash and a careful contact wash.

  2. 02

    Chemical decontamination

    Tar and iron fallout removers dissolve the contamination picked up in transport and storage.

  3. 03

    Mechanical decontamination

    A clay bar takes off what's left, so the paint is smooth to the touch.

  4. 04

    Light machine polish

    Takes out dealer prep marks and brings the gloss up before it's locked in.

  5. 05

    Reign coating

    Paint and wheel faces coated with Reign's 7-year ceramic coating.

FAQs

New Car Protection questions.

When should I book new car protection?

As soon as you can after collection, ideally before the car has been through a winter or an automatic car wash. The less it's been used, the less polishing it needs.

Does a brand new car really need polishing?

Usually a light one. Most new cars arrive with some marring from the dealer's prep wash, and you don't want to lock that under a 7-year coating.

Can you do new car protection at my home?

No. New Car Protection includes a machine polish and a ceramic coating, so it's only done at our unit at Amalgam Park, Sheffield S9 5DL. Deep cleans, valets and maintenance washes are the jobs we do at your home or work.

What does the glass coating upgrade do?

It helps rain bead and clear off the windscreen, and makes ice and bugs easier to remove. Ask for a price when you book.

How much is new car protection?

From £450 for a small car, £500 for a medium car, £550 for a large car or SUV and £650 for a 7-seater or van.
