Just curious if there is a product out there that will help me protect the paint from daily sun. Car is garaged all the time except when I go to work so I am looking at ~8-9hrs of the day in direct sunlight. I just started thinking today about it cause I came out at 4:30pm and was 38C/101F and full on sun.

I know about making sure you get a good detail done twice a year as in rewaxing and such, I am just looking at more of a weekly/monthly preventative...something similar like the waterless carwash products from Adam's but more ment to paint protect.

Any idea's is appricated....

Im the same way. You'll be fine. Your car isn't even spending 12 hours out in the sun a day. Just wash your car weekly and add a nice coat of wax every month or so for protection. I wouldnt worry about it too much
