Yes, 3M is very expensive and only small part of area.Oh those... You can visit 3M website. But they're expensive and there are a lot of misconceptions that it is to be applied to the whole car.
Actually 3M recommends that it be applied to bumpers and lower parts only due to the high cost of applying to the whole car. Better get you car coated bro ;)
Yup true, will see the different those wrap area and without. That why I not looking at 3M as very small piece. If u see the YouTube , it can wrap entire car.that will affect your original paint color (color not same compare not wrapped area) mostly people wrap the hood & bumper to prevent stone chips.
Yes agree. Heard some detailing sites/sifus in Asia mentioned that it will yellow after a while. Those that put it on expensive cars change it regularly every 1 to 2 years. Do update us if you've done it. Would be interested to know how it performs in our climate.Think I know what you mean bro... I've seen it. A new tech that makes paint unnecessary for cars. They start to apply it to some models in Germany. A layer of coloured skin is wrapped around the car. So I guess for the clear bra, it is like that same material but transparent.
Well, the reason why that is not widely used here yet is due to it is not proven to stand the tropical heat and rain. So i guess the clear bra should be the same case. Anyways, i would be good is one wants to try out. If you do, would you please start a thread and update us? Show us how it looks...
Can't find anywhere here doing this clearbra.Yes agree. Heard some detailing sites/sifus in Asia mentioned that it will yellow after a while.

That is what I heard of as I've not installed it. I still love my sealant/wax on paint with clearcoat. Seems to be the only first batch of 3M adhesive turning yellow and not he clearbra. Later versions of the adhesive does not. No idea who does it here, good luck in finding it.Can't find anywhere here doing this clearbra.
Why turn yellow? My car tinted windows doesn't turn yellow after 5 years.
Well, sealant/wax/glass coating and PPF (Paint Protection Film) are two different products.That is what I heard of as I've not installed it. I still love my sealant/wax on paint with clearcoat.

Yup, I know they are two completely different things. That's why people use PPF for front headlights/bumper/bonnet as a sacrificial layer due to stone chips/scratches. My intention is to protect from the elements which leads to oxidizing, fading, etc.Well, sealant/wax/glass coating and PPF (Paint Protection Film) are two different products.
PPF is to protect the lens and painted surface from scratches and stone chips, but for sealant and wax there is no such properties or abilities to protect your car from stone chips.
There are many brands of PPF are available in the market. They are quite no. of manufacturer offer the good quality PPF.:proud:
Mind to share what are the different PPF brands available said:Every brand's PPF has its own properties, like the thickness, elongation, adhesive, clear coat and so on. But this properties only important to the installer, not the end users.

Is true, some of the PPF adhesive will give you trouble not just when removing but also during installation.There's lots of good quality PPF out there....but there's not a lot that comes with good quality adhesive. Has anybody tried removing adhesive from those double-sided tapes on paint or plastics? The PPF would protect the paint from chips and bruises, but what's going to protect it against the adhesive from eating through the paint?
Just throwing out something to think about.....
Did you find the adhesive stick on the paint when removing. Can I know what PPF you installed?
