Having a decent film applied to the nose, mirrors and other exposed areas is the way to go. I would NOT waste money on paint protection chemicals because they just dont work.

3m and ventureshield are the top suppliers and then it is just a question of finding a local specialist who has the tools and premises to do a proper job.

Two answers to your question .

The first is as above , a paint film which will stop stone chips etc.

Then the second if your asking about wax/sealent products that you can apply your self then , you will find that the long term products as sold by main dealers will not last any where as long as they quote !

And for a lot less money would be able to purchase a much better product your self .

Some of the best products on the market for durability would be collinite 476s , chemical guys jetseal 109 or for the longest lasting i have found so far is the Zaino products but can be difficult to use without the correct application and works very well when layered ..
These all cost a small amount compared too more expensive products on the market , but work just as well if not better ..

Are you thinking off diy or using a company/detailer to do this ?
