Thanks. Seen that last one in magazines. I wondered if anyone had actually had it done?

Thanks for that, especially the link. Spot on!

Just had mine done by Paintshield. It was done from new and detailed before the film went on. I am very pleased with it though it is expensive. They use a precut design and it looks great with no risk of cut marks. Plus it self heals as demonstrated at Waxstock yesterday when they ran a wirebrush over the film on their demo car and poured hot water on it and the scratches disapperaed. Very impressive.

I'll be booking my new pork in for doing with paintshield immediately when it arrives. Wish I had done the m3 when it was new too but I think that's due a visit to KDS before it gets done. Cars eh, complete money pit.

Thanks.

Kelly - was going to contact you re the M3 tbh. It's been well cared for (I've had it from new) but has stone chips and the usual BMW orange peel and could do with a refresh. I think once that's done I'll get it paintshielded as its a keeper (wish I had done it from the off tbh). It wouldn't need the interior or anything else doing, just the paintwork. It's alpine white.

This thread though was mainly about my impending new arrival, a Porsche 981 S. definately getting that paintshielded from new but unsure if it should be detailed first and if so to what level. I'm not sure to what standard pork paintwork is at new these days.
