Common questions

PPF questions, answered straight.

What's the difference between PPF and a ceramic coating?

PPF is a thick physical film that absorbs rock chips and road debris. A ceramic coating is a thin chemical layer that adds gloss, resists UV and stains, and makes washing easier. It won't stop rock chips. Many owners put PPF on the front of the car and coat the rest.

What does a Full Front PPF package cover?

The full hood, full front bumper, front fenders, and mirror backs. Headlights can be added for an additional cost.

How much does PPF cost?

PPF is priced by year, make, and model. Tell us your vehicle and we'll give you a real quote. No inspection is needed.

Can you see the film on the car?

XPEL Ultimate is a high-gloss film that's virtually invisible. XPEL Stealth gives painted surfaces a satin/matte finish. Either way, the edges are hard to spot.

What warranty comes with PPF?

Every install is backed by XPEL's manufacturer warranty against yellowing, cracking, and lifting, coordinated through Unicorn Details.

Do light scratches in the film stay there?

Light swirls and scratches in XPEL Ultimate's topcoat heal themselves with heat from the sun or a warm wash.
