If one keep a car that long..... Remove after 8 years is the manuf.specification PPF is expensive. It's just the same or more on maintenance. It prevents rock chops and micro-marring All that marketing and upsell aside, as someone who has this, this is something you would probably want to...

Yeah, I know...anythings possible.. My paint shops are good. I've had stuff painted, wrapped, removed, rewrapped....never have had issues. I only have 18-19 months left on this car. Granted every paint job is suspect....to the potential of a lift In my understanding of PPF-Paint from my WIKI...

When I did :rolleyes:......I got a different estimate- since it needed the film applied, from PPF shop that does good work on detailing and PPF. He bought a bodyshop business 2-3 years ago and is operating under 1 roof. I believe the bodyshop is around the corner from the detailing side. Anyhow...

I was only going to make a comment or an ask....they got paid on 290 line items on the estimate :rolleyes: Pro's all around............

Yeah. Shop does extremely high quality work.... In my mind, I was like they paint skins off the line anyhow and wanted them to just R&R the bumper....kinda got fixated in keeping the factory paint untouched. I get the blending will net the best results Flash . Are you in the collision biz ?

Welp. My shop wants to Blend both quarters so there goes the factory paint

I was expecting this reply ....aka, the facility was clean, the car was clean.......just saying. huge cringe factor for me tho. When they apply ppf they are already using a boatload of slip solution to aid in install but also to flush out the clean paint already.....but I'm not a pro and just a...

They're not. Just saying while I have read blurbs about others in disagreement with Clean, - like in the most recent thread, I can't recall seeing the same like comments about Ammo until your last reply And yes, those were my same sentiments circa 8 years ago or the like, when I saw in the...

I had to google Sheepstar. That's how far behind I am on the 'tube auto stuff I dunno about pan, but doesn't everyone seem to listen:approve of LK. Akin to wayback in the day, when everyone worshipped Paul D - Miracle Detailing

You guys that adore you-tube.......it's Larrys-Ammos Video...... Just saying. I would expect to some degree that a hard no on letting another tradesman (ppf installer) blade the car would be a Hard No but I suppose maybe there is some sponsered-unsponsered content going on. aka, promo for...

I don't you-tube auto detail videos in general but was looking for a specific answer to see if any of the pro's covered it. One famous detail 'tuber had some ~pros~ installing PPF on his vehicle. Said 'tuber goes into detail about how PPF can change the look of his countless hours of perfecting...

The only ramps I would use is RaceRamps......I'm too Leary about the rhinos or the like.

I have been using the sh#### out of my undercarriage wand since acquiring it last year. One of the best things detailing related I've got in the last 10 years and don't know why I didn't buy one sooner. I used to get on my knees, stoop, etc with an extended lance just trying to hit all the nooks...

1Z - Einszett Plastic Cleaner. It removes transfer like that off with zero mechanical agitation... I would choose this vs. a Magic Eraser....but I suppose a Magic Eraser you may have on hand available... I have qualms even using my Ninja Scrubber on leather surfaces

I have a tech question on my brain..... Similar to how sensors under body panels, there are certain body panels that Manuf. specs that they must be replaced as repaint/paint thickness or the use of filler can impair these Sensors. Including our current car, I've had 4 cars fully wrapped in...

Paging BP1 or TTQ Do you guys have any zoom in pics of how relief cuts on inside corners are done with Matte PPF I am familiar with the need of relief cuts in certain area. What I am not understanding is due for the need of it, how it installed if the job is Matte PPF. Is it overlaid (similar...

I was at the PPF shop as I needed to get a quote on a recent side swipe.... In front of me was something new to me. I knew colored PPF existed, but in front of me was easily a deck of 50+ colors in PPF Vinyl wraps was never for me, even though they did offer a plethora of colors....and *ease*...

Based on some of the responses in this thread, I don't have it that *bad*. Seems like some don't have access to a water source @ home, in the replies of 1st pass HP rinse and then RW afterwards, etc. To me, that means it get's almost as *mucked up* the minute it leaves the coin up. It's cleaner...

One of the shops I use is a Autopian's dream. 2 Floors. Floor 1 is Body Work. Floor 2 is Paint. I recall him telling me Floor 2 has in ground heating in the slab so the heat minimizes dust or something to that effect. Bodywork stalls are all vacuumed control tools, enclosed areas - unlike the...

Granted in any collision, the experience of going from damaged good s to -repaired goods- and seeing non dented panels, etc may affect ones emotional initial response to *great job* from any bodyshop upon pickup I have 3 bodyshops I use. All 3, paint match is always on point, panels aligned...
