The Demise of Auto-Shield

We found this amazing product.
We have been slowly rolling it out over the last year or so.
It is a great idea, a revolutionary idea.
We called it Auto-Shield.

We had to dump it last week.

Basically, the product is a spray-on 3M film.
It's great for protecting paint from rock chips.  
We sprayed a hood in the shop, banged on it with a hammer and no damage.
We really believed in it.

Well, that all changed when we spent a couple thousand dollars in product and time fixing a vehicle that had been sprayed with this product.
In a world where cars are still sprayed with solvent {not water} based paint, it works.
We use water based paint.

Lesson learned.
