Default Protect From Rock Chips?

I was messing around with Glad Press'n Seal to see how well it would work to protect from small rocks, etc. It does provide very basic protection but:

- it really needs to be clearer

- it needs to be thicker

This is a pretty cool product that could have some potential. It really goes on quite easily. I do need to see how easy the adhesive is to remove - so playing around with an older vehicle I have to see how this works.

Glad?!?!?
