Satin paint VS wrap questions.

Looking at getting the H1 painted or wrapped satin black. I've had some people tell me that if a bird shits on it, the panel needs to be repainted or wrapped again? For a daily driven truck what is recommended? Which one is more durable?

I'd wrap it. Worst case scenario is that if a panel does get ruined somehow, you can just peel off the vinyl and stick on a new piece. Plus, it's probably cheaper.

Definitely wrap it. Satin paint is a bitch to clean.

rhino liner paint is a new thing people are doing, probably not what you are looking for but cool and extremely durable

+1

I've seen it on a CTS-V @ cars & coffee and it looked miserable, but on an H1, it would look appropriate.

The rhino liner actually came to mind, but decided to pass after seeing one in person.

Would prefer to stick with a black.
