Default protecting berger panel
I made a berger panel for my Z and was wondering if there is anything you can put on to protect the paint, that won't throw off the look of the finish. Or do you just keep your eye on and and repaint if it gets bad?

I just cleared my flat black one, and it now looks great, I think that is the best protection, it changes it slightly but not much
