Thats the way I look at it :) A high glossed, clearcoat like plasti dip.. but probably a little more expensive hehe

cool, I'll try this out if I can get my hands on one

$24.99 for the spray film. It covers 10 sq. ft. I may try this on the rocker panels when it's available.

I use something similar for track days, called Road Warrior Plus. I was skeptical at first, but thought I'd give it a try. It takes me 5-10mins to apply...once it dries, it has a rubbery saran wrap texture to it. After my track day, it peels right off.

Looks like the kit is under $35. Wax then spray on... I might pick this up to cover the areas my XPel film didnt touch (mirrors, lights, edge of roof, door handles, moustache (maybe). Nice find!

I've been messing with this stuff, it is a nightmare to use. If they manage to make it so it can be sprayed on without professional masking; and add some sort of anti-clog nozzle to the cans, it may be worthwhile but as it is it's kind of a mess.

does it spray out blobs every now and then?

anyone else have experience with this?

ordered the starter kit from amazon but theres a 1-3 week shipping delay. I'm going to try it on the front bumper and hood. Hopefully some painters or clearbra dealers can get access to this so there can be a professional install.

clear bra is expensive for a reason. ~8 mils of protection vs this thin crap, and the craftsmanship it takes to do a clean job.

abutterman 05-09-2013 10:30 PM

can this be used on matte black painted wheels? Would be nice to have some protection from road crap

That's between me and my urologist

Anyone else w feedback or experience w this?

Mustang88_357mag 05-12-2013 08:26 PM

much is the clear bra. It came on my car along with the spoiler, TRd exhaust, TRD drop in filter. All of which were not listed on the options on the sale sheet so I don't think the dealer knew what car they sold me. MSRP was like 25000 for mine.

Xdragonxb0i 05-14-2013 12:31 AM

wouldnt clear plasti dip do the same thing? seems like a good product to try when you go on a road trip, it would make cleaning bugs so much easier

White64Goat 05-17-2013 02:14 PM

Why does the can in the video not look like the can in the kit? Looks more like a high pressure cannister than what the kit has...........

zc06_kisstherain 05-17-2013 03:26 PM

hmm....maybe it's good for road trip or where you need to drive long distance. yeah i would like to have some feedback from members.
checked amazon review, not great reviews there

Did you use the trigger handle or finger spray?
