I was told that if i wanted the entire hood done they recommend VS but it would be very prone to staining and would require more upkeep. I've had 3m on 2 cars and i treat it as if its not there. The installer mentioned without me keeping on top of the venturesheild that it would possibly stain. What type of sealant would you recommend on to use on it?
