No build up of wax or dirt after 30 months. To me, the clear bra is a no-brainer.

Had 3M clear on my old black Silverado. Drove 215,000 miles. Took it off. Paint still looks brand new and not a chip in sight. On my 2014 Track, I am going to wrap the hood in 3M CF and clear 3M the bumper, side mirrors and rocker panels. Great investment IMO and even better I can do it myself so if it looks like crap, I only have myself to blame.

Bumping this thread as I have a clear bra question that I haven't seen answered during my research.

I'm looking into picking up a Z within the next month or two and will be going with a clear bra install as one of the first things I do to the car.

I'm in NNJ and live in an apartment so the car will be parked outside overnight. It will also be my daily driver and driven year round.

I'm curious if keeping the car parked outside overnight and daily driving it year round in NNJ conditions will affect the bra. Will I have to wash it more often than usual? Will there be any discoloration from being outside all the time?
