Default superwrap paint protection

Has anyone used superwraps paint protection series liquidshield? Says protects paint surfaces from scratches and such a film but im not sure if youd have to pull the layer off eventually or if it'd just wear off without any negative paint looking effects at anytime till the liquidshield dissappeared?

Just curious if you could spray this in sections and the paint not got in any worse condition?

I wouldn't try it. I don't see how the heck that stuff goes on evenly -- you're at best going to see waves in your paint, and protecting from "yellowing" is pure Bs (I assume it's clear). Also, since you're spraying it on , even if it is a protective film and not a layer of clear coat, I highly doubt you're even going to get a mil's worth of thickness. I would be shocked if that gives you any protection whatsoever, and unsurprised if it makes your paint look like ****.

If you *really* want actual paint protection, go with a reputable dealer and get a PPF wrap. I went with Xpel, 10mil (after I had re-painted the car black),
I have XPel on all my cars -- including my daily and my wife's. The really do take a decent amount of abuse and best thing is that if you get nick, long as it's not in the paint, usually only a few $100 to replace a panel. I've had it on my '18 trackhaw, my '67 c2, and my wife's '18 SRT durango, the paint on all of them look factory fresh.

They tout the "self-healing" properties of xpel, but I think that aspect of it is pretty overplayed.

Does not sound like an effective product to me.

Xpel or nothing. The Healing does work but you have to be realistic on the damage. Had it on my truck for years.
