Menzerna Polishing Compounds of Germany has set new standards for workability, uniformity, performance, and quality. Why else would Mercedes Benz use Menzerna polishes to perfect the finishes on their brand new vehicles?

Sealant over ClearBra??

Does anyone know if its safe to use sealants (such as DG #601 & #105) over the 3M Scotchgard Paint Protection Film (ClearBra)?

I know waxes are fine but I'm worried about a sealant damaging or yellowing the film.

Thanks.

Here's a response straight from the source (DuraGloss). I'll probably tape off the film when applying #501 but based on the email from DG, I'll use #601 and #105 on the film.

Here's the email from DG:

Answer:
msquared100,
These products will not harm the 3M Scotchgard.
Thank you for your inquiry and God Bless,
Jerry, Technical Support

Question:
I`ve always used your products and continue to do so. I`m about to detail a car that has the 3M Scotchgard Paint Protection film installed and need confirmation that the 501, 601 and 105 won`t cause any damage or discoloring of the film. Thanks

Re: Sealant over ClearBra??

Not sure what brand of clearbra is on my Rav4 but PB EX-P sealant has been applied a few times with no ill effect on the color of mine. It was a good local installer so I am sure it was a quality bra that was applied. It still looks good after 2 years.

Plexus is the suggested cleaner/polish for my clear bra, which is manufactured by VentureShield.

Re: Sealant over ClearBra??

I had LaminX on the headlights of my last vehicle. About the same thing as the 3M Clear Bra. Duragloss #601 and #105 worked well on it.

There are several manufacturer's of paint protection film but I personally like 3m Scotchgard. Here's a link to their website where you can find an installer:
