My vote is the plasti-dip. Less ghetto, more class.

I've been seeing a temporary product from 3M advertised lately. It's 3M Paint Defender System. Looks like it would be much better than tape or a bra. Plasti Dip sounds good/better too.

I have that. I just need to get the nerve to spray in on my car.

Here is a link to a video on 3M's web site. Not sure I'd use it, but it is interesting.

Interesting stuff. I'd use it for those long road trips instead of the bra or painters tape. That may be the ticket.

Get clear Plastidip if you plan on going on a trip.

I wouldn't get one, but really not a bad price..$178-$185. I have the 3M clear bra (full treatment) on all my vehicles and so far it's all good, and they all see quite a lot of highway driving.
