Planning on doing it to my front lip soon to see how it works. Looks like money well spent since its cheap, any help to protect is better than none.

I bought this at local autozone. Used 2 bottles to try to cover hood n bumper for my '13 Sienna. All the reviewers complains are true. Spray tip is not the best it always makes a mess so constant wiping and shaking of the can is a must. You also need more bottles, i say for mine maybe 4 bottles to achieve that thickness. It doesnt show that shines towards pic or vid, maybe because my van is black! Anyway removing the film is PITA! I used alcohol and it worked.

sorry didnt took pictures after we came back from vegas i removed the thing right away. I wont even recommend it if your planning to use it on hood or maybe on light colored cars are ok.

It looks exactly like plastidip.... You could just gloss coat your car and it would protect it without giving it an opaque finish

I use this instead of the blue tape. It peels off nicely and is much easier to apply than painter's tape.

Agreed. I might try this on my lip as well. It's definitely the best place to test it out.

WOW, that looks good... wonder if this can replace clear bra?

I used this product myself and had simalar issues. The tip of the can does not allow the access foam to spray off...so it builds up and falls on the part you just sprayed. I was pissed. Tried it a couple times and decided to call 3M.

They were actually real nice and told me I got a bad bottle and they have already requested that bad batch to be returned to them from the stores. They ended up sending me the whole kit for free (minus the spray gun part) and it worked much better. I have only tried this once so far but next time I plan on putting a thicker coat. My IS is Tungsten Pearl and it is really not noticable unless you stare at it. It leaves a rubber feel to it. The paint underneath it shines like normal. Overall, I am happy with the product. Not as good as a real clear bra. I have used about a third of the can so far. I plan on spraying on a thicker coat next time. The "three pass" like in the video just does not seem like enough. Its a thin coat. I am going to try five passes next time.

FYI...in case you do try this and you get some access foam on the part you just sprayed...here is a tip. Don't wipe it off. Stop spraying and let it dry. Than peel it off. I made the mistake of trying to wipe it off and it made a real mess. But warm soapy water and a little elbow grease took it right off.

If your clear bra installer is good he should have no trouble wrapping full bumpers. Seen this stuff in person and the finish does NOT look good at all. IMO pay the money for the real deal or just wait and have whatever panel resprayed when it gets chipped.
