There has to be some sort of paint solution, like a special clear coat or something.
bro, we know your stance on hte issue, BUT you may have beliefs about the first 2 points (your opinion), BUT NEVER EVER lie about a product when you don;t know, it does NOT turn yellow!!!!! sorry to tell you, at least when you present your side, present facts and NOT speculation based on scotch tape or some other inferior products you may have used.

Question Clear Bra Yellowing

Thumbs up Clear bra

[QUOTE]Originally posted by Anyone2u
[B]It's the sand from the roads from such a hard winter. I get pissd off too when I get to the front of the car. I was considerring getting a clear 3M "bra" just for the front bumper, after I got it touched up, but not sure how that would look or how effective it would be.

Anyone2u - I got the Xpel clear bra right when I picked up my Chrome Silver Touring in April. It works great. The Xpel dealer in Hudson NH did mine and was great to dela with. I highly recommend him. Tony Diminico was the name I believe. Get the telephone number from the Xpel website.

Anyone2u: I'll PM you if I decide I want the bra..

I might look into getting the 3M clear bra on my car and seeing if there are any places somewhat in my area that can apply it. I should probably do it now before it gets worse. But that black bra pic on the orange Z looks pretty good

I found this by doing an internet search, does this sound right?

I saw one this week yellowed out, on a 1999 model car, so I assume it was installed in 1999.
