Yes, I was dumb enough to pay $400 for the dealership's paint sealant application to my jet black F30. Of course, before I did that, they made all kinds of promises of a lifetime warranty, dramatic reduction in swirl marks, etc. Guess what ... Took my one-month old beauty to a reputable hand car wash (let's omit the place's name for now) and now the big-ass swirl marks are all over the car. So, I have a dilemma: claim paint recovery from the dealership under warranty or try and get the situation resolved by the car wash place. Has anyone used paint sealant's warranty to make the dealer remove the swirl marks on a practically new car?
