Just wash her regularly and wax often.
How many have you actually removed, and what would you say the success rate is? I understand there are benefits of different brands, how easy some are to install than others, but they never bring up the fact how hard these things can be to remove. Sure the car looks nice for a while, but when it's time to sell the last thing I want is to put harsh chemicals or objects to scrape gunk off my paint.

Say I take perfect care of the car, would you say the clear bra would last around 2-3 years where I could still remove and have the surface look like it was never there? I will probably keep it on for a few years, if any longer I have a feeling it would be nearly impossible to remove. I've been doing some research, and many people realize after going through the ordeal to take it off, they wish that they never had it installed.

Pretty much, I want to avoid my car to look like this.
