FAQs About XPEL Paint Protection Film
What is XPEL Paint Protection Film (PPF)?
XPEL PPF is a clear, self-healing film applied to a vehicle’s painted surfaces to protect against rock chips, scratches, and environmental damage. It’s virtually invisible and preserves your paint’s original finish for years.
Is XPEL Paint Protection Film worth it?
Absolutely. XPEL PPF acts like a shield against everyday damage, helping you avoid costly paint repairs and maintaining your car’s resale value. Many Birmingham drivers consider it a must-have investment for their vehicles.
How long does XPEL PPF last?
When professionally installed and properly cared for, XPEL Paint Protection Film can last up to 10 years. Every installation from Exquisite Car Design comes with a 10-year manufacturer-backed warranty for added peace of mind.
What makes XPEL better than other PPF brands?
XPEL leads the industry with superior clarity, precision-cut templates, and advanced self-healing technology. Its stain resistance, longevity, and warranty coverage make it the trusted choice of top installers and vehicle manufacturers worldwide.
Can I apply ceramic coating on top of XPEL PPF?
Yes, you can. While XPEL’s ULTIMATE FUSION™ already includes an integrated ceramic top coat, adding an extra ceramic layer enhances gloss, depth, and ease of cleaning for even more protection.
What is the difference between ceramic coating and PPF?
- Ceramic coating repels water, enhances shine, and prevents UV discoloration but does not stop rock chips or scratches.
- PPF (Paint Protection Film) physically shields against impact damage, debris, and scraping. Many high-end vehicles use both for total protection.
Does XPEL PPF affect the look of my paint?
No. XPEL films are optically clear, meaning your factory color remains brilliant and unchanged. For matte or satin finishes, the XPEL STEALTH™ option delivers a smooth, unique texture while preserving your paint.
Can XPEL PPF be removed or replaced?
Yes. XPEL PPF can be safely removed by professionals without damaging your paint. This makes it a smart option for leased vehicles or future color changes.
How do I maintain my vehicle after PPF installation?
Wait at least 48 hours before washing your car. Use mild soap, soft mitts, and avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes. For best results, Exquisite Car Design recommends maintenance washes using ceramic-safe cleaning products.
