My 04 explorer has the hood paint chipping/bubbling like many of them do and I've always covered it with touch up paint but it's growing/becoming more obvious. I was wondering if anyone has tried to plastidip over the front couple inches of their hood or if maybe a bug guard would successfully cover it up and help keep it at bay? Has anyone tried this on here?
 






The problem is under the paint. If you coat over the factory paint it just may keep peeling off. I had to replace my hood with a steel after market.
