Forgive this post in the General section, but I think a lot of people would be interested in this and it will be seen by more members.
I was prepping for the first hunting trip in my JLUR a month ago and was contemplating what to do about paint protection from brush. I gave some thought to a full color camo wrap. Didn't get to it. So, I'm in O'Reilly auto parts and I see a couple DIY easy ceramic sprays. So I read up on them online and see some videos. I decided on Mother's CMX over the Meguires stuff.
Needless to say, I procrastinated until the last day or two to think about paint protection and I recalled I had bought this CMX stuff. It was late evening and I had been finishing up the install of some mod that took me all day. I was tired and I grabbed the CMX and some isopropol alcohol. I wiped down the sides with alcohol quickly and used a clean microfiber towel to apply the CMX quickly. I waited a few minutes and quickly wiped it off. I did both sides within 15-20 minutes and decided I should do the hood as well. I knew it had some imbedded contaminants in the paint and quickly clayed it. No polishing. Then wiped it down with alcohol and applied the CMX same as the sides.
Heres some pix of one layer of protection after some brush abuse. It looks like it really protected the paint.
