    different package, different product?

    hey guys, something got me thinking. Does anyone use different products in different packages? let me explain.
    If you apply use something like Reload for a sealant after a correction package, do you use the Reload on a basic wash & wax / valet? or do you use a "cheaper" one, with less durability?
    I can imagine that you would use Gtechniq C4 trim coating for a correction package, but not for a basic package, or you would barely get any profit from it...

    Re: different package, different product?

    i think a lot factors play a huge role in this

    for one, you could give options to the customer. good, better, best as far as LSP grade theyd want to go with

    same goes as when you do a 1/2 step polish. obviously for someone who wants long lasting durability youll go with a coating.

    if they want a show car finish or if the owners just love the idea of wax.. give em wax

    all in all, i wouldnt say "cheaper" but what the customer wants and budget for LSP

    I pick LSP by package usually. If I know one looks great on their particular color I'll upgrade them to that.

    I don't think an expensive high quality product should be applied on a low tier package because they aren't paying for the best.

    I offer upgrades to each package so if they want the better wax/sealant they can have it. You should be doing the same. Explain the benefits of the 2 year trim protection/restoration and if it fades before 2 years apply another coat for them. Think about up selling and how things will benefit the customer.
