Motorway paint damage

Recommended Posts

Just had the front end of my 2007 Prius re-sprayed (again). It spends a lot of time on the motorways but the damage from grit and debris to the front bumper and bonnet is horrendous. After the re-spray I did one return journey to Birmingham from Leeds in wet stormy weather last week and those 2 journeys have left the new paintwork badly pitted yet again. Any suggestions?

Car bra, or few more clear coat layers, instead of the 2 or so they put.

This one does not work. What for you is an ample amount of space for safety reasons, for someone else is a free spot.

True, I must admit I spend very little time on motorways, they are a bit claustrophobic these days with the volume of traffic and I avoid them if at all possible. Having only done 10,600 mainly A-road and city miles in 4 years, I don't have a single stone chip on mine yet (touches wood). 

PS. I have the G3 Paint  protection on mine, I don't know if that helps it.
