Where do you buy it? Amazon has it, but it's rather pricey.

It is pricy no matter where unfortunately, but it works... http://www.detailersdomain.com/Optim...ant_p_173.html

I think that Amazon would be cheaper (especially with Prime) once you add shipping in that site above.

Any actual paint protection products so that I don't have to "painters tape" the whole nose of the car (which I will not hesitate to do) to prevent rock chips prior to clear bra in the USA ?

Other than the 3M spray-on clear bra, no other liquid/paste will withstand a rock chip.

So I guess a painter's tape-duct tape sandwich front end is on order ?

I was planning on hitting a really nice "American car wash" in Nice on Friday, but everything was closed as 5/1 is a huge holiday over here. Ended up using the manual car was at the Noce airport which worked out fine.

It was raining so I did not bother to dry and wax.

What does AGIP stand for?
