Paint protection has come and gone the way of a number of dealer-added
gimmix intended on jacking up the price of a new car.  Your thoughts
on Polyglycoat (now out of business) are true.  A good wax job is just
as effective.  Another problem with paint protection coatings is that
they are usually applied to a new car, with new paint.  Car paint dries
from the outside in (at least the stuff used by most modern auto
manufacturers does) and most new cars' paint isn't completely dry yet.
So it's not such a hot idea to wax a new car for a while, much less
apply Teflon gunk to it.

Save the $100, or use it to buy something useful for your new car.
