What would be the best way to protect the paint job against the elements? I know it's not ideal, the best thing to do would be to give it shelter, but I don't think I'll have a place with a garage for another 3 years at least.

I'm seeing threads about clear bra and opticoat, which seem like good ideas. I know I'm not going to be able to maintain a showroom finish, but all I really want is to keep the paint from getting true long-term damage. The hope is that when I do get a garage, I can restore the paint job to like-new condition.

Anybody else in my situation?
gonna go out on a limb and say that the majority of people here don't have garages lol. opticoat, regular washes & occasional detailing should be fine.
