Wish you were in Texas. I'm taking delivery of a TT RS at the end of May and this will be my first experience with a "clear bra" type application. Haven't had it on any of my other cars. Any tips or suggestions?

Hi Philip,

Amazing detail as always! Quick question regarding clear bras - how do you remove scratches from them? Is there a special polish you use?

Thanks!

Damien

sure thing with a da polisher we usually use the Menzerna SF4000 to clean up the clear film.

They won't go away completely but it will clean it up a bit.
