I applied some bodyfence PPF today. It is much harder than it looks. I bought 5ft X30ft so I can wrap the most vulnerable areas.

I want to see finished product, I've already got some bare paint chips in the lip of the hood.

I've been looking for stainless door edge guards made specifically for the Ranger doors. Had some for my 2005 GMC Sierra and 2002 Escape, but I can't seem to find them any longer. Anybody ever seen such?

Ill try and get some photos tomorrow, I plan on re-doing the hood because there are some spots that I over worked on the edges, along with some water bubbles that I couldn’t get out and had to pop with a needle. I didn’t stretch the material enough when I first applied it so there was a lot of fingering I had to deal with on the edges later. It’s an excellent film though. And if you want a strip to protect the front from chips you can get smaller sections of it pretty cheap. My whole roll was about 600 bucks.

Any advice for putting it in? Mine comes in a few weeks!
When you start to take the tabs off of your OEM grill. If one does not come off go to the next and come back to it. Sometimes it will make it easier when you get a few more tabs off. Took about an hour

Anxious to hear your results on the wax. I keep looking at it everytime I'm in walmart. I wanted to try chem guys "ceramic" stuff, but it's a little steep at $40. This might be a good replacement. And sorry to hear about the old ride, that's terrible.

Put a very small, about 1/4 inch dent on the edge of my driver's side door. I opened the door too wide and hit it on the doorknob of the door going from my garage in to the house. It didn't chip the paint and it is hard to see, but now that I know it is there I'll see it every time. :mad:
