Default 3m bra 1 year later

My 1 year evaluation on the 3m car bra 1 year and 18,000 miles later.

I gotta say, it is worth every penny. I gave my car a good wash yesterday and looked hard at the exterior condition. The front of the car is stone chip free. The bra iteself is holding up very well and is holding its clear look. It is not peeling, and it does not have any wrinkles. The car looks as good as if it had zero miles.

By the way, the car has been driven in 100 degree heat and below freezing temps, with rain, snow, and ice conditions. Weather seems not to matter.

It is also very easy to clean. Got some road dirt, bugs, or other items that may fly up onto your car? They wipe right off with some mild soap and water.

I highly recommend the bra, and will do it again on my next car, especially if you drive a lot of highway miles.

Nice write-up/review!

My bra has been holding up quite nicely as well. I've had it on for about 2 yrs now.

I kind of prefer the term 'clear mask' - I have had the 3M on for my last 3 cars, all Lexii, and the '07 got 18" on the hood, both outside mirrors, and the entire front facing surface of the front bumper. About $500.00 - My only regret, should have gone 24" on the hood, or maybe the whole hood...
