[QUOTE=yOyOYoo;4823833]Questions:
1. How do you treat the vinyl wrap when washing your car...Do you wash and wax like it's regular paint with clear coat?
- Water and soap: no waxing necessary nor is it recommended
2. Is it less prone or more prone to getting scratches and swirls like clear coat does?
- no swirls unless you use a brillo pad. It is also tough to scratch the film
3. Does it scratch easily or offer protection on the original paint?
- some protection for paint, but not comparable to clear bra
4. Can you put the vinyl on top of clear bra? Can you put clear bra on top of vinyl?
- Yes, but if you have the bra on half the hood, you will see the line when the vinyl goes over it.
Hope that answers it, if not don't hesitate to call or email.

wow looking good!
since the vinyl can get rock chips on the front end, do you guys recommend wrapping a full clear bra over the vinyl on front of the car?
water and soap, no wax, sounds easy enough to care for!

We do not recommend placing a clear bra over the vinyl, because the bra carries a gloss finish.

We have seen countless vehicles with razor paint cuts that are deep to the primer and many of these companies are now out of business. Experience is the key, so be sure to ask about razor cuts on paint because to our knowledge, we are the only company on the market that would be willing to make a public statement of not cutting paint.
