Few tips

Make sure your can is also warm
Keep trigger squeezed while making passes to prevent spitting
And last but not least follow the directions this product does not like shortcuts.

I applied on camaro and since its white it harder to see compared to the 3m video.

Going to get hood and fender next.

Looks good in pics... Now the next test will be to see if it actually can take any impact and protect the paint from stone chips.

Well just went out and checked starting to see sags on hood cowl and lower fender Dammit! Should just burned that 75. Maybe I should have just done the leading edge. Going to have to rip it off when dry. It's humid here also that could been factor or operator error aka. application to heavy, noticed sags near front hood too.

They are noticeable so guess its clear bra for fender and leading edge. Going cut my losses.

Only thing turned out fine is rockers panels and splash guards.

Well live and learn...
