PAINT PROTECTION FILM
While you can wax the film, be sure the product you are using doesn’t contain Naphtha or Kerosene in concentrations over 5%, and also avoid waxes that contain dyes. For best results, we recommend using our XPEL Flawless Finish Paint Protection Film Sealant. This product has been specially formulated for use with polyurethane paint protection films to provide the maximum protection and gloss, while containing no ingredients that would cause discoloration over time.
Any of our films can be installed on Chrome, though the finish will look slightly different than if left unprotected. We recommend having our installer apply a small swatch to the desired surface so you can see what it looks like before deciding.
No. Because of the impact absorbency of paint protection film, the refractive index of the film is too different from that of the windshield. Because of this difference, putting the two together causes a distortion when looking through the glass that would be unacceptable to the vehicle’s occupants.
Yes, but we recommend waiting at least 48 hours for the film to dry & completely adhere before using a car wash.
