I did mine a little different

Not a big fan of the travel film crap and black duct tape. I think I might just go naked and remove bugs each stop or blue painters tape. Nit liking the film. Especially nervous with a really hot hood from engine heat. It does leave a residue.

I think I will at least run it on the front bumper. Painters tape is OK but leaves residue, too.

You know what, though... painters tape with color-matched duct tape over it might not look bad.

I put a small spot of the film on my bumper and left it over night. I had to use a cleaner wax on the area to remove the discoloration. Maybe black is more sensitive? Then again, I might have to do the same thing with the painters tape.

Reading up on some forums...guess its hit or miss on the painters tape. Most people say to make sure to use the blue painters tape with the orange "delicate" label on it for delicate surfaces. Some people have gotten residue that they had to polish off (not sure what version they used). I have a feeling that using this film, in the HOT sun, on a HOT car...there would be some massive residue cleanup.

So my red racer tape showed up and it's a good match for the car. I am going to try to find some of that orange-label painter's tape and see how that works as a base layer.

There was a sh1t ton of it here at walmart.

wow... so I am really annoyed that I spent so much money trying to protect the damn car.

I guess it's not all a loss... I will end up using it int he future for the track... and if I paint any rooms in my house... or if I need some saran wrap for anything... haha.

Yeah -- the film leaves a residue that will only come off with a cleaner.

The painter's tape... both regular AND delicate, also end up leaving film and it's just such a pain in the ***.

ALSO, my hood and bumper are already so far gone, I don't even know why I bothered. I'm NOT putting anything on the car for the drive down. **** it. I'll wash it at one of the wash stations if I have to.

Just replied to the group! That's some good stuff, Steve! Thanks again.

I hear ya about the rain! Our run down should be pretty nice, but we may very well be in for a rainy weekend. Be sure to pack ponchos!!!

Also, I'm not much of a drinker so I only bought one case of Blue Moon and a case of Sam Adams Summer Ale... no way I will drink all of that.

I got your email Scott, thanks! Good stuff! "other Scott" you can lead the entire way if you want. I've been down there but not to Fontana Village. We can figure that out though on the way. I don't mind leading as I've been real close to Fontana Village, LOL!

You should lead us in since you're more familiar with the area than I!!!
