For those who have black 4Runners and faded paint, what clear coat do you suggest?
I have a 2014 SR5 and it is now exhibiting the faded paint on the hood and top. Its barely starting to be noticeable on the sides but not too too bad. But I want to tackle it soon enough. Even streaks from the car wash I can see throughout the paint. The hood is starting to get very obvious. Where I live the sun is unforgiving and destroys everything, max index is close to 125. I wish I had a car port or garage but maybe down the road I may have a shade installed. I know I will be taking off the hood to treat it. But which clear coat would any of you who have dealt with this, which brand or type would you recommend?
