ProtectaClear amateur application completed. Easy to do!

ProtectaClear too much of an application hassle?

This might be a long term solution for those wanting to keep the factory SS look but hate the constant fingerprints. Tmaxx satin PPF comes with a decade long factory warranty. It looks like a decent option.

It’s an option but very glossy. If that’s What you like it would work

If I decide to wrap/PPF this would be my first choice.

I have to say for those of you that are considering ProtectaClear but on the fence, I’ll say do it, and do it yourself unless you have money to burn or physically can’t or don’t want to. I’m no pro but with time and a couple old fashioned’s and good music, I can do anything. I’m very very impressed. No fingerprints. The process works. I’m no paid spokesperson or anything (unless my reviews go viral on here then they better hook me up) but as scary as it may seem at first, it’s really a simple process and the product fixes itself so put it on, move on, and don’t go back too fix anything because it will mostly fix itself. After an hour of drying (I just had to try it) I put my hand on the door panel and NOTHING!! Plus it seems to add a smoother texture to the truck. So far I’m super glad I didn’t wrap. I’m telling you the SS CT will be in the minority… until this gets out!

I actually thought the painter's tape color looked good as a trim wrap. I was gonna ? it. ?

Like others, I attempted a meticulous first coat and a light second coat to fix rainbowing. I ended up with lint and streaks in both coats and drips in the second coat. I wanted so badly for this to work, but I will have to strip it all off. If I could hop in a time machine, I would have just done one panel, and if I couldn't get it to meet my expectations, I would have abandoned the project. I wish I had my time, money, and brain cells (from the fumes) back. My advice? Proceed with caution and don't think that DIY/painting skills will translate to coating application success.
