Are you doing anything to protect your new paint?

I noticed my old one was peppered in them as I was cleaning before it went. I've been taking steps today to prevent them on my new one.

What steps are you taking? I'm going to have to get my front end re-sprayed as it's also peppered with them and looks a mess. I once remember someone mentioning some super hard enable coating that they had applied to theirs, but can't for the life of me remember who it was.

I've applied 3m paint defender today, just waiting for it to dry. It will last this winter then I'll get the proper film on, I've been quoted £500 for the entire front end.

I'll start a thread once I'mon a computer to get the photos off the camera.

Including v.a.t. £996.00, I also had a scratch polished out that went from the front wing to the rear lights.

A clear wrap was suggested when the paint has hardened right up.

Sounds about right I've been quoted £900 full front end
