I also live in Az. and just love the chip sealing. What brand is the
factory bra. I have a 94 that doesn't get driven much (27,700 miles)
and I'd like to keep as much of the factory paint on it as possible.
The paint seems to scratch easily, seems evertime I drive it some
intelligent person in a parking lot takes home some of my paint. Doen't
matter how far away I park, when I come out there's always another car
or two around it so I've just given up hiking to stores.
