Madlock Posted May 13, 2011 Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 I'd appreciate any helpful guidance from anybody who's found a way to successfully protect any autographs or signatures they've obtained upon their (aluminum) passenger airbag covers. I'm hoping some kind of clear coat exists that would allow me to have the cover sprayed to protect the signatures underneath - without either dissolving the signatures or being noticeably different from the OE finish when dry. I realize there are a great many clear coats in both gloss and flat, but I'm hoping somebody could recommend something they've used and found to work particularly well in 2010 and newer vehicles - or, as an alternative, any of the clear protective film products that may have been created for other purposes. Many thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MMcGuirk Posted May 13, 2011 Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 My 06 has 50K+ miles of daily driven sunshine on it's unprotected signature. Zero fade, looks like the day CS signed it in Terlingua. I wouldn't mess with clearing over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have members of the local SAAC club that have unprotected sigs that were done in the 80's. No fading, even for California with all the sunny days.
