Agreed - asking for trouble especially when the paint is still "soft" (not that im a fan of them even for any aged car)

I wouldn’t use one, I’d get it detailed and ceramic coated and that will be perfect

Go on you for wanting to use your saff as daily.

I used mine as a daily for years but I dont think I could do it now. I would be scared incase it got damaged or had parts pinched off it.

It's your car and as long as you are happy with the colour change that is all that matters. Diamond white or the latest Frozen white?
