After seeing dozens other white Rogues in Florida, how do I protect my 2017 white paint on my Rogue? I have seen these other Rogues in various forms of paint failure and some are really in bad shape. Paint gone, chipped or just gone flat ugly. ---

A high quality wax is the best protection you can get.Make sure it has UV protection in the formula.I buy a high quality polymer wax for my car and do it twice a year. ---

Also buy a bottle of automotive touchup paint in the correct color for your car. Touchup every paint chip as soon as you see it. Every one. ---

Wax on wax off. But if the paint is questionable, it will fail at some point and require new paint. ---

A car cover would help but beware of cheap, ill-fitting covers. They can do more harm than good by rubbing against the paint. A portable garage would be even better, if you have room. ---

Out of the sun as much as possible would help a bit but that falls in line with NYBo’s comment. The sun here in OK cooks a lot of it as I’ve seen 3 or 4 year old cars with the paint oxidizing or flaking no matter the make and model. ---

The last paint protection I used and trusted was Liquid Glass. Now gone and I can find anything that I really trust. ```auto Al ``` ---

That is probably the way I will have to go. Thanks, ```auto Al ``` ---

I don’t use a car cover, but I do use covers on lawn furniture, my smoker, and my gas grill. These items get a lot of condensation, and can require significant cleaning to remove the gunk that grows on them. ---

Will do. Most of the places that use to carry Liquid Glass are sold out and the guys I know that have some won’t part with it. ```auto Al ``` ---

it looks like Liqui Tech Finish First is the Liquid Glass successor, even bottle looks the same ---

Thanks, that is the type of product I have been looking for. I know the sun is a killer on paint in the South, but I am looking for any thing that would come close to Liquid Glass. Thanks, ```auto Al ```
