I have a white car and have been told that the 3m scotchgard may start to turn yellow over time. Is that true with white cars?

UV yellowing is always possible with any clear plastic, but scotchguard has been noted as being better than some others in this regard. It will NOT yellow your car, but a white vehicle would make a yellowing film more noticeable. Still you'really talking many years down the road and you can simply remove the clear bra if it did become an issue.... I would guess this would be 8 years or more of protection before this would even be an issue.

Any film get old with turn yellow...the thing is the white color show so clear..

Yes that is true. In my experience. But it could take a while. I've had it last several years. And yes it's the adhesive not your paint. But at that time I use a hair dryer to get it warm and remove it. Do a full paint detail to include these areas and reapply. I currently use this product on my white painted snowmobile and change it every year. Hope this helps.

you must have one darn sharp knife to be able to do that.... i suspect the metal from the knife blade just "colored" the sharpening sticka little bit. hit it with a scotchbrite scrubbie and it will probably turn white again. that's what i did.

Yeah. . . . I put mine in a 2006 Chevy Tahoe and mine never really turned amber just a slightly different color of white, in other words they DO NOT WORK properly. I returned mine to the seller.

That's interesting. But no. This is yellow lol idk if it's that literal. Maaayybe look up "Meguiar's quick wax" it'll have a yellow car on the bottle I believe. About 10 bucks. You can get it at target.

We've run it through more then a few times and have not seen any problem's or discoloring, but then the gas bar-b-q did change the color somewhat; it now has a nice blue tint to it.....

My clear bumper has yellowed after 7 months. I wish I had gotten a colored bumper. I think that would have been better. The rest of it has not yellowed at all.

Sylvia,I'm salt and pepper and have never had mine go yellow, but that is my reason for using the product.......to prevent yellowing. I would think that after several applications it would start to bring back the more silvery look. Hope this helps you with your question.

Haven't had mine for a year yet, so I don't know. If mine does, I will scrub it with Mean Green...it'll clean about anything. They should not turn yellow in the first place. I hope mine doesn't.

Yes it does, it will not make them whiter then they were originally. Only as white as they were when they were installed. Your friend Eric

I can't get any White car to shine LOL. Through doing proper prep work.. Claying. Using a Pre wax cleaner such as (ultimate polish or M205 along with a Dual action polisher) . IF you car looks like the picture on the ULtimate compound bottled, then you might have to do that step before. The best I could do was make the car look like new again. Carnauba waxes offer the best look however there is a downside to theses waxes. They last about 2 weeks in 90+ weather.

Suggest you delay use of LG on "new" car for 3 months after purchase/build date, just to ensure that clear coat has aged. Then you're good to go. Be certain that you apply it on a completely clean/grease-free/road tar-free surface, lest you cover-over the crud. Just a thought...

The first 3 sets of bottles it was an off-white color, now they are white. It may have been that the outside clear capsule was discolored? The color doesn't seem to affect the effectiveness of it and it still works great for me! And like some of the other reviews state... you need to keep using it once you stop all of the pain and other symptoms come back within days.

Mine is painted white---this is my 3rd season (i think) so I'm not sure if they changed the color

It seems to be very sturdy on walls covering metallic paints, but it does yellow and the yellowing is more and more apparent over time. This is noted if you put all the coats on as directed, and colors that are not that light (medium blue for example). On darker colors, it is terrific.

It's the same color as 90% of cars on the road, and an exact color match for my Toyota Camry. It's not the intense white you see on some BMWs, but to my eye doesn't look yellow.

Never seen orange, I am buying my second set for another car, awesome! Orange needs yellow and red, green and red makes yellow, theoretically it should be possible, but I haven't played with it enough to get there

No it hasn't. My friend who actually had one before me used it on her gold iphone used it for longer than me (about 3 months) and it didn't yellow at all.
