Windshield protector
I just saw an ad from a company in CA that offers a clear finish protector for windshields similar to PPF. It says it reduces the little chips that accumulate on windshields over time. Have any of you tried this product?

Seems like the wipers would leave scratches on it.

Getting this done soon. Surprisingly resilient material as far as wiper marks. That said, I don't use the wipers on my vette.

My C5 had a lot of chips and I called a glass co. They said that in Florida it's considered a vision impairment so ins. paid. I would have paid for it so it was a nice surprise.
