Mr. Previa -

I like the thought of this for lower car protection and even aesthetics, but I also wonder if it helps. It will add weight and I am not sure if there is hard proof that the rough surface that the specific coating you describe will produce an aero benefit that is greater than the added weight.

I just don't know,
