Re: Clearcoat durability on C5

the bumper covers are no different on a Vette than any other flexible bumper cover.

The thing is modern paint sucks. The water base isn't as strong as it used to be.

Thank the EPA and the desire to lower VOCs.

Now, when they paint the C6 it is electrostatically applied.

To be honest, the best paint work is done by Ferrari. They use a powder coat for the primer and a ceramic infused paint for the final coats.

I still think your best solution would be the cleartastic bra material.
