Best Matte PPF 3M or Xpel? Any installer recommendations in Orlando, FL area.

cashsmoney · 05-23-2022, 10:42 AM

Hi,

I'm looking have having a full vehicle PPF in a sheath or matte. Does anyone have any recommendations.

Xpel all the way. 3m sucks. If you want to save some money, get suntek.

Nice look. I can't wait I have a Gunmetal gray at sea right now and want to go stealth.

Superior Detailer is the best in Orlando.

I'd say Xpel all the way OP

Maybe a dumb question, but would Xpel stealth front only (hood,fenders,bumper, mirror caps) show a big difference in sheen/color from rest of car? I just don't want to PPF the whole car..

Yes, stealth looks like my car in the above post and you would have matte body color mixed with gloss body color. You absolutely must do the entire car if you're going Xpel Stealth (clear on non-body color surfaces of course).

Another vote for Xpel Stealth

Does anyone know the resulting difference in effect on Frozen paints using stealth vs regular? Would Stealth on Frozen be matte-ier or even cloudy?

I have frozen BW, it looks the same to the eye, but if you REALLY want to notice it you can sort of spot it. But 96% I would say its the same, sheen and color.
