Bonnet Bra issue!!!!!!!!!!

[JamesE]

Hey guys ive recently bought a bonnet bra and ive got a bit of an issue with it.....

I cleaned my car last sunday and decided to put it on, i had it on there for til tues night as it started raining so i took it off, i then come back from work wednesday to find it had mate my paint work go all funny it looks like its faded heres the pics

Do you think i should send these pictures to autobra and see what they will do about it?

Not a happy chappy atm

It's due to rubbing on the paint from all the little bits of dust trapped between the bra and the paint - it will polish out quite easily ...... also when raining. it washes anything off the bonnet and into the bra area.

Someone else also had this problem. There is a maximum time it should stay on according to autobra, cant remember how long it is though.

Think it says not to leave it on for more than 7 days at a time, it should polish out like UncleFester says.

yeah, mine only goes on for a day or so at a time. Try to use it for long drives and shows only! Although I did wash the car yesterday, and decided to put the bra on

A good polish should sort it TBH! Where are you based?

 

[JamesE]

I gave it a polish on a bit of it and it didnt get rid of it.

I only had it on 2days and it says dont leave on for no more than 7 days so thats fine.

Im in bristol mat.

you would need to machine polish it mate

if you was closer i'd give it a bash

 

[lemonslap]

sorry for the stupid question but what is the point in bonnet bra's? Is it just to protect from stone chips?

 

[Mat]

exactly!

however, most use to cover chips that are already there at shows

Ok cheers Mat! I just think they look abit naff but i'm getting old so can't keep up with the latest styles lol

 

[Mat]

i only use mine at shows to cover up a bad chip as mat said, but the chips being sorted in 3 weeks so may sell up after.

I would rather put up with a handful of stonechips tbh. 62k miles in mine and it's till only got a few that are worth worrying about.

 

[Cupra20]

I've got one but don't use it anymore as it won't fit my carbon bonnet but as you say i only really used it for going on long trips or to shows.

Mr ainsworth had the same problem with his! - Raining weather!

don't leave it on in the rain, when its dirty, or for longer periods.... treat it like a real bra, if women showered with there bras on and never took them off to air themselves then they would prob get some body defects lol!

Bra's FTW!

 

[Mat]

tucked in rear wheels FTL!

get some spacers mate

I love em!

But have a black car...so won't be ordering one unless it's red ;-)

As for the paintwork, try some renovator or as said, machine polish!
