Twenty years ago, clear coat car paint protection was all the rage. Clear coat for cars promised to end paint damage from road debris and leave cars looking new year after year. The problem was that when the clear coat got a nick or a scratch, it looked nearly as bad as damage to the paint itself. Repairing extensive clear coat damage was just as time consuming and expensive as repairing the paint job itself. Clear coat offered a degree of protection, but nowhere near what was promised. These days there's something new on the market that fulfills many of the broken promises made by clear coat: Clear Paint Protection Film. Paint protection film is the latest evolution in the automotive paint world. It's been around for a few years, but just lately has it caught on to the masses. Though not a perfect solution to all problems paint related, it's the best thing on the market and should be considered by anyone looking to protect an expensive paint job. Paint protection film...

More and more people are paint-protecting their new cars these days not only for the eventual higher resale value they may get for their car, but also for the sheer good looks paint-protection gives the car. And such car-owners are paint-protecting the cars themselves to save on labor or professional fees, have some fun doing the thing, and mostly because such work is very simple to do personally, even for an unhandy man like most of us. Usually, paint-protection solutions are applied in two coatings: the first to remove dirt, grime, dust, and others from the paint surface, as well as seal the paint's microscopic cracks mainly due to the sun's heat and ultraviolet rays. The second coating applies the film of protection to the paint. Most do-it-yourself kits sold in car shops and supermarkets come complete with manuals that detail application methods, while the cans or bottles themselves have the manufacturer's instructions printed on them. So there is little chance of ...
