I recently bought a car which had obviously spent a lot of time under the sun without much protection. The front of the roof has some clearcoat failure and the hood has developed a faint white haze in some areas. I just washed and claybar`d the car and also applied a couple coats of Optimum spray wax with its UV protection. I have used this wax on my previous car which had a very small area of clear-coat peeling on the pillar. That peeling hasn`t gotten any worse during the last 3+ years of ownership which I`ve been happy about.
I am wondering if there are any other products I can use for maximum sun/UV protection so that I can prevent the damage from getting worse and preserve the rest of the paintwork? The rest of the car is in ok shape paint-wise.
I park my car in an indoor community garage which I know helps tremendously but there will be lots of days where I will have to park outdoors for hours. I don`t have a Porter Cable or any other machine so at the moment I am only open to products that can be hand-applied.
The haze on the hood isn`t quite as pronounced in real life and the paint isn`t quite as flat as it appears in the photo. Nevertheless, the haze is there.
Thanks
