This stuff looks like a great cheap solution, especially for anyone not wanting to shell out half a grand or more for a clear bra.
Honestly, I have heard a lot more cons to this stuff than pros. Spraying it on is tough for one. I have heard it is hard to get a consistent layer of film. And if you spray a thin coat on and decide it isn't up to your quality it extremely hard to pull it off. A nice thick coat is usually inconsistent and appears wavy so you will want to pull it off. So you will go through a few cans of this stuff before you get an acceptable layer down. But then again this is all from other people and not personal expierence.
