HI, this is my first post...nice to meet u all
here is my little question :
I was required a Protection Paint(crystal glaze) on my New AstraH when I bought it 2yrs before. And there is warrantly.
Anyone here have the protection paint ?? I really want to know how long does it last n wht's the warrantly actually for. Because it is asked to have an paint inspection in every yr.
mm..one more extra question abt detailling, I m wondering will the ClayBar remove the paint???
thx you very much for the help!

as a spray painter there is no need for paint protection. that and it gives us the ****s. should have a lifetime warrenty on it. i wouldnt use claybar on it either. its a coating that tends to stay oh so slightly soft. just a fine polish should do it. or go and ask where u had it done.

I'm learning...so it's a lacquer/varnish like coating over the original paint/clear-coat.
I assume you can take it off with a solvent?

i believe "paint protection" is simply a polymer sealant (ie. synthetic wax - man made).
just like any wax/sealant it will deteriorate and fade in our harsh climate.
clay will remove whatever is left on there & polishing will remove it all...
it is not a varnish or lacquer. the clear coat does that job.
if you polish the car - make sure you put a coat or two of wax / sealant on the car to protect it over summer... many good brands on the market...
