Default 3M clear bra

The research that I have done shows that the 3M clear bra is durable and safe for the car's paint if applied correctly. Has anyone had any problems or negative experiences with this product?

No problems at all with the product. It's good. Just be very careful with who you have install it.

Great success with the three that I have had. Echo the comment re:the installer. Installer is crucial to a good install and experience

Good installer is crucial. Check the 3M site, talk to them on the phone, ask for references, talk to the references, ask about the guarantee from the installer. And in many cases, it's sometimes better to have an installer who has an actual shop vs. a traveling van/truck, not that they're inherently bad. All the dealers use them.

I just got mine installed last week on a 08. I already have it on my Tundra and my C5. The only way to go. The installer is more important then the material.
