Any try 3M "Paint Defender" spray

DavidInIndy · 05-20-2013, 09:25 AM

Hi everyone:

I was watching the Velocity channel this weekend and noticed a new commercial by 3M touting their spray on clear protectant/mask as an alternative to the clear bra. Here are some details on Amazon with only a few reviews so far:

I'm going to defer to some of the experts in this forum as I'm very pedestrian when it comes to how to take care of my car's finish. Thanks in advance for everyone's opinion on this.

Wow, I think I want to give this a try.

just waiting for better weather. Need to clean up minor paint chips on the front bumper. Then going to wash, clay, polish, wax, and then do the 3M cover....

If nothing else (and assuming it comes off easy as claimed) it makes a great alternative to blue tape
