Default My VOI paint protection...

I can't stand chips!!!!!

So, I know it may look a little kookie......

I have clear bra on the nose, sills, headlights and mirrors.



600 mile drive and 2 days at the track, I don't want to take a chance!

Not as bad as this guy!!!

I wonder how it will hold up after baking in the Vegas Heat for a few days in addition to the heat that radiates from the engine compartment?

cant be any worse than useing it on the windows, and leaving it on there for weeks at a time, while being exposed to the vegas heat. Infact painters tape doesn't like heat and will start to peel itself away from the car and fall off.

Always take someone down with ya!!

Got the idea from guys that take their SRT 300's to car shows all over. Stays on. Just use a quick detailer to remove any residue.

I'm headed to Vegas baby!!!! See ya there!

If you track and do not like "chips", perhaps another piece of tape behind the front wheel, on the sill. I have noticed a few chips here as well after the track.

Check with Griot. They now make a spray on version that peels off when an event is over.

friend used paint on latex and then removed it with just a hose...... It's clear, too..... slightly easier on the eyes.

Hope it works out well for you.
