Nose masks? - HondaClub.com

Hey all, I'm new to the forum, but just bought a new 2007 Accord and am wondering about protecting the paint up front b/c my old 2000 Accord got pinged to hell. Are masks a good idea or is the chance for 2 tone paint too high?

Yes there is a chance for two tone paint effect...especially closer to the ocean...

You can get a clear spray painted onto it...it is pretty tough and most important...invisible...made by 3M...so its not like the crap they sell on ebay!

Okay, I'll keep an eye out for that stuff, but I was actually thinking about still getting a bra because it's completely white and a black accent might help out its front end right now.

A leather bra has a good chance of causing that two tone effect or worse.

Look at 3m's clearbra stuff, IIRC it is designed to prevent any type of two tone like look, and I think its the same stuff as the Lotus Starshield. If its good enough for Lotus to put it on their cars...

You also have to take off bras when it rains. If you don't, they tend to eat up the paint.
