Forgive me if this has been addressed before, but I couldn't find an answer by searching.
I'll be taking delivery of a new, fiberglass body in a couple weeks. Have read here about the need to complete cure in direct sun before starting work. Question is regarding scratch resistance of SPI clear coats. The 4WD vehicle will be well used for many years to come. Enjoy accessing remote fishing & hunting spots reached by overgrown logging roads. Finish will be subjected to brush, overhanging limbs, and lots of mud. Also plan to use it exploring the desert Southwest. May likely be encrusted with layers of dirt for a month at time.
I'm not so concerned of a show quality appearance as a clearcoat that is durable. I NEVER want to have to repaint. Have read about such coatings with claims of unique, nano technology. Am appealing to FIRST HAND, LONG TERM experience here, will I be happy with an SPI clear coat?
