Got ya, still looking for a spray on, too bad 3m requires yearly reapplication.

I've seen some posts about Xpel film from forum members. Has anyone used the new 3m product? I curious to know whose had it on the longest. Apprantly from info. I've read on other forums it only lasts a year!? That's a lot of work every year especially when the car sees only about 1200 mi. a...

How long is Xpel supposed to last? I was looking at the new 3m Spray Film but it's said to only last a year! That's alot of work to do every year, especially when you drive the vehicle about 1200 annually. I wonder what happens to the 3m at say 10 mos.? Start peeling, cracking, turning...

Thanks definitely looking for non elastic though. Elastic is too much of a PITA in a confined area to get on and off. Maybe I'll just buy a BIG bed sheet!!

I'm looking for a extremely lightweight non-elastisized bottom dust cover for a garage queen. The car collects more dust in the garage than road dirt. I'm having a hard time finding the above mentioned product, everything is 5 layers and tight at the bottom. Thanks for any help you can lend...

The match is perfect due using the factory pack (ie factory mixed color). Taking the human factor out of mixing seems to be the way to go. The only issue is the factory clear is way orange peeled and not very glossy (rest of the car). It is not due to the age of the car or sun etc., as it has...

Well now for the update. I finally picked up the cover today. I wound up using BASF R-M Diamont factory pack as Dupont does NOT make a factory pack Mystichrome any more. I brought the FP to Advantage Ford in Stuart on the Florida BASF rep's advice. The body shop manager has done both full...

The Ford Dealer has to get the paint from Dupont anyway, it is not accessible through their parts system. The majority of the cost is associated with the paint price. Just because you haven't heard of $500/pint paint doesn't mean it doesn't exist. It is not like I am taking the body shops...

Thanks for the inputs!! I wound up going with Murphy's Paint and Body in West Palm on Southern. The paint system on the Mystic is Dupont and I prefer a shop that is familiar with the product. They wanted to use a factory pack (ie premixed) however Dupont is not producing them any longer...

As the title states. Who has the best body shop with the most skilled painters in the area? Unfortunately I need to lay down Mystichrome paint on the rear bumpercover of my '04 Cobra. From what I hear it isn't an easy process. Has to be painted black 1st, then basecoat, then clear with NO...

I95 to Indiantown East, left on Center St. (Discount Auto on Corner), Center St. ends at US1. Jupiter Ale House is on the SE corner, so RHS.

Of the product or results? I use it on light scratches so I doubt it would show up on cam.

Florida unfortunately, been here for 28 yrs and looking to get out ASAP PSL

If you are at all interested in 'Stangs of all years, GT's, Lightenings, etc. Millers Ale House in Jupiter Fl. is holding a LARGE show this Sat. 2/9 @ 12 Noon. It isn't a typical car show as there is only 1 award, people's choice. It is mostly a meet of tons of 'Stangs from as far North as...

Glad to see I'm not the only one, maybe I don't need clay after all. Thanks for the link!!
