Had the whole front of the T350 resprayed. Looks lovely. I'm bound to get stone chips, but what is the best way to preserve the depth of the colour? I noticed the bonnet was fading a little pre-respray (only needed the nose doing but I had them do the whole lot as I had a few stonechips one the rear lip of the bonnet too). I think my colour doesn't have enough of the pigment which resists sunlight (non technical explanation).

I a good carnuba wax as good a protection as I can give it?

P.S. I do not want paint protection film - and besides this would only work on the parts of the body covered by it.

There are a number of glazes and sealants that have UV blocks in them. Your best bet is to speak to a pro detailer or to one of the well known suppliers of the products - they are very knowledgeable and will tell you the best product for your type and colour of paint.
