FAQ's clear bra paint protection films stops rock chips
What is a clear bra?
A clear bra is a polyurethane film that protects almost any painted surfaces from chips and scratches. Commonly used on bumpers and hoods, it can also be applied to rocker panels, door edges, rear bumper luggage areas and any other painted surfaces of a vehicle.
The term clear bra is related to the "car" bra. The difference is clear, and now you can drive confidently without fear of damage because of rock chips, bugs and other flying debris.
What film do you use?
We use Xpel Technologies Xtreme and Ultimate paint protection film. Xpel backs their film with a seven year warranty against cracking, fading, yellowing and blistering. Clear bras vary from one manufacturer to the next. We use Xpel because of it's high gloss and flat appearance. It is crystal clear and cannot be detected when approaching the vehicle.
Can Clear Bras be removed?
Clear Bras are considered semi-permanent. Therefore, they will not come off until you are ready for them to be removed.
Will the clear bra hurt my paint?
No. Paint protection film will not affect properly cured OEM finishes. It can be removed years later, leaving a satin smooth finish behind. If your vehicle has been repainted contact your body shop for the recommended curing period before applying the film.
Can I wax the film?
Overall maintenance is the same as paint. It can be washed, polished and waxed the same. Dallas Fort Worth Clear Bra offers a complete line of maintenance products for the care of your clear bra and vehicle.
