Maybe I have missed earlier discussions but I think one important piece of information to ask is expereinces and preferences with different clear product brands for the paint protection. Is anyone completely set on any one brand - specific expereinces between any? sorry if I am asking a rehashed question.

It depends. Some films scratch and stain easier and shouldnt be used on daily drivers, some are tougher to install, some only come in certain sizes, etc. It depends on your situation but a good installer is key. Find an installer that carries a variety and see what they recommend.

Ventureshield here. The product resist yellowing more than 3M - the product was so good that 3M bought them last year to be able to use the same tech.

If you use a wax with UV inhibitors on the clear bra, that should help with the yellowing as well?

Not all types of clearbra can be waxed.
