Default Re: Ceramic coating/xpel

I had the front end and hood done on my 92 about 7 years ago. At that time 3M was the best on the market. Only regret was the maximum length of plastic was just short of our hood length so I have a seam on the sides. Now Xpel has the longer length so you can get the hood wrapped without a seam. Fix the paint chips and have the hood polished and ceramic coated then have the Xpel applied. In case you have to take it off in the future you will not have any paint issues. I am afraid to replace my old film as it is a crap shoot if paint will come off with it. Xpel is awesome, all self healing. They did a demo at Corvettes at Carlisle. They had a C4 top that was wrapped and took a brilo pad and rubbed it so the top was all scratched up. Then took a hair dryer and all scratches disappeared and the top looked new again. Great stuff!
