I'm going to be getting the XPel kits installed on my 8. Obviously I won't wax the car before installation. So my concern was whether I can claybar the car with the clear bra installed. Is it advisable not to claybar the clear bra? I've seen posts where people have Zaino'ed the clear bra and got great results with no problems. Just need help in figuring out how I should go about with the initial prep for Zaino with a clear bra installed. Thanks in advance.

 

I have the clearbra I don't think claying will be a problem. You can wax the clearbra too.

 

Hey Flatso, where'd you get your clear bra installed from?

 

It was installed from me...I did it...came out pretty good too.

 

Wax the Clear Bra as you would the rest of the car. It loves the wax!!

I was told by my installer to wait 1 month prior to waxing. This allows any residual mositure used for the installation to evaporate.

 

this is a post from a professional paint protection forum that answers your question

 

OK .. I am getting this done. But where .. I am in Santa Barbara, I will go donw sout. just tell me who does it for a fair price ?

 

Does anyone know of an installer in South Florida?
Thanks

 

You can go to the xpel web site and find a local installer/dealer. Many do not have an actual shop but will come to you to do the install

I am in the process of getting quotes now.

 

Curious to the life expectancy of the clear bra??

 

most have a 5 year warranty...my wife's clearshield has been installed for 4 years and still looks great. it's a new enough product that real life expectancy isn't known yet.
