Clear bra advice
I need to replace the clear bra on the turbo. It's 4 years old and has hazed a lot, not sure why.
1. Anybody know of any product better than 3M's ?
2. To save $400, I might take the old film off myself. Any advice on how ? I know some heat is needed, maybe a solvent...alcohol? Any insight appreciated.

I had a full front and hood done with Venture Shield 3 years ago. Looks new and has shielded the hood well from some road debris.
I removed some from my 993 with just a hair dryer and some detail spray (Griot's Speedshine). I would not use alcohol on paint.

No personal experience removing a clear film, but I've heard it's a real PITA b/c of the adhesive. Get a can of 3M Adhesive remover which I hear makes removing adhesive residue very easy.
