This stuff works as advertised, but it doesn't offer the protection of a real bra or a clear bra. It's just a thin layer of spray-on film that will withstand rain and small debris, but it will not protect against larger pieces.

It did wash right off with car wash detergent and seems safe for the paint.

Not a bad product for $5. I used probably &lt; 1/10 of the can to cover my bumper and hood.<ul><li><a href="http://www.duplicolor.com/products/shield.html">Duplicolor Shield</a></li></ul>

Can you see it when it is on? Or is it clear?

I bought the clear one. You can see a layer of haze. On silver it's not so noticeable though.
