Default 3M Paint Defender

I know you probably think this is the same old thread topic about paint protection.......

but........3M has a new spray on product in a can with a 3 hour cure time.

Great for days at the track, long trips with no cutting and fiddling with heat guns and solvents.

Seems like a winner to me!

just bought the kit..45 bux with free shipping on amazon prime. I install clear bras for my family and friends on thier cars....this looks like it sacrifieces thickness of the bra for more ease of use. I will test it out and see how it goes....I currently have clear bras on me hood and front quarter panels and the side skirt piece that runs up the quarter panel...
