Clearshield

[Guest melu]

Hey guys, I'm a rep up in Canada for Bekaert. I sell a lot of Clearshield and I was wondering to get your feedback on it etc. Anyone that has an opinon good or bad let me know. Thanks.

bad.

sorry dude.

I hate it...

after a while it starts to look like crap. Installed the 3m one on my friends white trans am...6 months later I removed it. Started to get yellowish. Also on dark color cars wax gets stuck on the edge and if you are not careful removing it very well after each wax..after time its basically impossible to remove it all.

xtreme, I'm confused you installed our product or the 3m product on your buddies trans am?

the only complaint I get with our product is that you need steam to install it. Our prodcut is an 8 mil top coat which give great protection but its difficult to install without a steamer. The guys I sell too they see cars 4 or 5 years down the road and it still looks good. If a guy can get over the installation part at first, you can't go wrong.

Oopss..sorry..I speed read your post..

I used the 3M one

C/S works best for bumpers that get hammerd in urban areas...best stain resistance from hot tar from asphalt and elevated trains... 3M has the look of a OEM paint coat and is best for bulk installers who do real custom stuff.

Not a bad product but they definatley need to work on clarity and elasticity.

I love clearshield. I think it's a great product. I've had it on my car and my wife's car for a few years and it still looks great no yellowing and has taken a beating and there's still no reason to redo it yet.

It will rip..when I dont need it to... Its not clear at all...looks like marble.

thanks for postitive feedback blade. I agree that our product is not the most elastic but we have taken the route that it may be a little harder to apply

but it won't go yellow and the clarity is the best on the market from what I've been told. The product is not perfect by any means but some of our guys say its the best of the worst which I find kind of funny. we could make it a 6 mil with no top coat which is super easy to apply but then what kind of protection are giving? Its a catch 22 for sure.
