Glad to be apart of the 6gen family...loving this car, it's definitely a head turner lol. It's my first time having a car with vinyl stripes (was never a fan) but love the way it looks on the 6 Gen but my question is what products are you guys using to clean/protect the stripes..did some searching but ended up more confused then ever, all help is greatly appreciated thanks again.

Added a few pics of the day I picked her up we were about to get hit with a snow storm but got her home and in the garage min before it started

you wont be able to clean that, that roof is scratched up, get your car flipped over and then we can look at the damage and provide suggestions. 2017, www.icantfigureoutmyphone,com

An easy fix is to right click the picture on this page, "save as" (save to desktop). Right click on the picture on your desktop and click edit, it should open in paint. If not open it in paint. Under Image there's an option to rotate. Save it and then go to your original post and click edit, delete the old attachment, upload the new one you just rotated.

Back to your original question, I don't have vinyl on mine, but I've had it on a previous car, I just waxed it when I waxed the rest of the car, just don't use an orbital on the vinyl or near it because it can come up. It can make washing/waxing a pain but it does look sharp!

Another option is to use a sealant instead of a wax since it's easier to apply (no buffing), I use rejeX. I'd just put it right over the hood on everything so it seals and protects everything!

Sick looking grill btw! I'd get a STO-N-SHO so you can show more of it off and it's removable when you go to take pics.

Thanks man I appreciate the help, I'm on my phone that's why I just can't seem to fix the picture...once I get home on pc I'll fix it up. I'll look into rejex thanks. The most annoying thing is it had swirl marks on the stripes the day I picked it up. Will definitely look into getting the sto-n-sho in the near future

This is my second Camaro with vinyl stripes and I just use the same products I use on the rest of the car. I don't do anything too complicated though. I use stuff like Duroglass rinseless, Adams detail spray and wax - simple stuff like that. I've not ventured into ceramic coating or the like. I also don't use any type of power equipment that might grab a stripe edge. I've never had any issues with damage or dis-coloring of the stripes.

If you have swirl marks in the stripes, I would have the dealer replace them. they may had a guy polishing them with a electric polisher. Those marks will never come off.

whew, your lucky, roof looks ok, not sure how and i have no idea about the vinyl. sorry but that is a beautiful car.

they aren't bad but I know they are there, really want to try and visit the dealer as least as possible don't want to bring it in for for one problem and walk out with two lol ( sounds stupid I know but just really picky about who's handling my car)
