The CBB Advantage
What is the CBB Advantage?
For many years, Certified Benz & Beemer (“CBB”) has been proud to provide its customers with the CBB Advantage to help customers keep their vehicles looking fabulous, both inside and out. It also helps maintain the value of their substantial investment.
Ceramic Coat Paint Protection
A key element of the CBB Advantage is what we do to protect your vehicle from damage to its paint. Many people use wax to protect their vehicles but it is not the most effective solution, especially in extreme weather environments such as the Southwest.
As part of its Advantage program, CBB provides a ceramic coating on most of its vehicles in partnership with Clear-FX. What is so special about the Clear-FX? It is a combination of resin, solvents and additives to protect and strengthen the vehicle's paint surface. It’s high level of resin allows the Clear-FX to bond directly to the vehicle's surface to create a hydrophobic layer which causes water to bead up and roll off the surface. This makes it so much easier to wash your vehicle as dust and dirt will come off easily with a simple splash of water and without any scrubbing. It also eliminates the need to regularly wax your vehicle which saves you time and money.
Clear-FX protects against larger headaches caused by nature such as sun fading, rain, bird droppings, tree sap and acid rain and comes with a lifetime, nationwide warranty against these harmful issues.

Clear-FX also reports to Carfax ensuring your vehicle is credited with receiving this valuable protection. This makes your vehicle more desirable if and when you decide to sell it in the future.
Ceramic Window Tint Protection
The CBB Advantage also includes Solar Gard Vortex IR, a ceramic window film that leverages ceramic particles pulverized on a nanoscale level that produces unmatched performance, privacy and comfort. Metal particles found in many other window tint films reflect heat, light and radio waves---causing more glare from your windows and a spotty cellular signal. The ceramic nanoparticles in the Solar Gard Vortex IR absorb energy from the sun which keeps your car’s interior cool and your interior from fading. It comes with a LIFETIME warranty against fading, peeling and scratching. If it fails to do so, we will replace it for free. It provides other benefits such as:
1. Safer Driving Having the sun directly in your face while driving isn’t just an annoyance – it can be deadly. The chemical compound in our window tint protects the driver from the sun’s ultra-violet light as well as it shields your eyes from glare.
2. Temperature With the right window tint, you can reduce the heat inside your car in the scorching summer months by up to 60%. A recent study from LiveScience.com measured the interior car temperature of vehicles sitting in the sun. A car’s interior gets much hotter than most people realize. For example, a car's dashboard can get upward of 157° F. The steering wheel may climb to more than 127° F, and the temperature of the seats can reach more than 123° F. Window tint will not eliminate all of the heat that is inside your vehicle but it will effectively help to keep it much cooler.
3. Upholstery Protection The heat and UV rays from direct sunlight can turn your upholstery into a mess in a few short years. This is easily preventable. Window tint keeps your car’s interior from getting hot enough to warp, fade, or crack.
4. Staying Healthy Direct sunlight and the associated UV rays doesn’t just damage your skin and accelerate aging, it can also cause skin cancer over a prolonged period of exposure. Window tint is an important protection from the dangerous UV rays that car passengers are exposed to. For example, car windshields, without any tint, can block up to 96% of UVA rays, however, side windows are a different story! The UVA-rays block in the side windows of vehicles varies from 44% to 96%. The Skin Cancer Foundation now recommends getting all of your vehicle windows tinted in order to protect against UV rays. Our window tint will protect ALL of the windows in your vehicle against 99% of the UV and UVA rays.
5. Privacy and Appearance Let’s face it, in some of the more unsavory parts of town, it’s a good idea to keep a low profile. Window tint guards your personal privacy no matter where you are. It also protects the things inside your car when you’re not around. No more need to stashing your valuables out of sight every time you park.
6. Shatter Proofing Tint helps to keep your car’s window from shattering upon impact with an object or in the event of an accident. This can go a long way to protecting the health and lives of your passengers if anything unexpected happens on the road.
7. Signal Friendly. The Solar Gard coating is signal-friendly and will not interfere with your mobile phone, GPS navigation, satellite radio and other electronic devices
8. Energy Savings. Having a cooler car means less use of your vehicle’s air conditioner. This means less fuel and/or battery consumption.
Not everyone lives in a sweltering climate such as Arizona, but almost everyone appreciate the benefits of a cooler vehicle with UV ray protection from the sun during various times in the year.
In an effort to make our vehicles continue to look immaculate, CBB contracted with various vendors on a bulk rate to get to get the best pricing on these products and is passing that on to its customers. The Ceramic Clear-FX Ceramic Coating as well as the Solar Gard Vortex IR Ceramic window film has been applied to the majority of our vehicles for an addition of $998.00 to the Sales Price as mentioned in the Vehicle’s Description.
CBB Loyalty Discount
In addition to the products above, the CBB Advantage comes with the CBB Loyalty Discount on their next CBB vehicle. As a market-based priced store, CBB provides their customers with their best price right up front. It’s the price that a customer gets whether they are calling from the East Coast or a neighbor that just so happens to walk into our dealership. However, many of our customers love the CBB Advantage because when they get their next vehicle from CBB, they get a $500 Loyalty Discount taken off CBB’s best price. This is a legitimate savings as it is not provided for any other customers who may be interested in that particular vehicle at that time. CBB provides the Loyalty Discount as a “Thank you” to its happy customers and as a means to maintain those relationships. If you have any questions about the CBB Advantage, please feel free to speak to one of our Product Specialists about the benefits of these products.
