3M Paint defender advice/help/review
So I purchased this about 3 months ago and used the 1 can to spray my front bumper. After that I sprayed it on the side skirts and rear bumper.
Didnt use up the whole can though in retrospect I should have.
The product works well though it has a weird reaction when washing and it gets white spots all over that goes away after an hr.
Also I dont think I cured the side and rear properly as they are visibly dirty (the sides with brake dust, the rear with dirt)
So here is the problem, I didnt go thick enough and it is a PAIN IN THE ASS to remove....I mean I've spent 2 hrs so far on one side skirt and have removed about 6 inches of the product.....had to use goo gone to assist and even then its a scrub-a-thon.
Anyone else using this product that could perhaps lend some sage wisdom or tips to remove. I want to redo it since I do like the product, but want to make sure I add it thick and let it cure before driving like I do...
Thanks!

yah, some folks tried it on another forum and did not net good results. (blobby mess, runs, not smooth, not very glossy, not consistent, etc) i guess for temporary use it's fine.
i'd get clearbra instead.
