Yeah this is strange. I put in an inquiry, I'll do it tomorrow if it's $4500 for full gloss too, I don't want satin.A partial gets gloss film and a full wrap gets satin film. Seriously? I can almost guarantee this is going to change in the upcoming months. Potential full wrap customers will demand a gloss PPF option.
Shame they went for the artsy lighting, so you really can't see much in the dingey garage! The only problem with matte over satin is that if you have kids, or anyone with greasy fingers, it really shows up a lot more on the matte PPF; essentially as bad as they do on gloss, but in reverse, and more difficult to clean. You still see them on satin, but not so bad. I used this stuff as a quick cleaner.All matte should also be an option.

Decent video on matte vs. satin:
Perhaps initially and for those who already took delivery. Eventually at the or near the plant before shipping.Looks like it will be local shops doing the work.
"Within 3-5 days, a participating XPEL dealer in your neighborhood will contact you with the information you’ve provided to schedule a consultation for purchasing one of these great protection options."
This is also a great time to add premium window film, ceramic coatings, and paint correction at an additional charge.
I wouldn't think flossing would be necessary with the lack of a grill....I mentioned in the other thread.
Front Floss = paint correction on front then application of film.
Stealth= paint correction not needed just apply. It says in their link
Amen brother. Amen. I'm dying to see EC in person.I really need to see FG with the Stealth PPF before I get a guide assigned because EC looks SO EFFING GOOD that I might be changing my color choice unless I think Stealth FG looks better.
Any experience with Xpel Ultimate Plus vs. Kavaca PPF (https://ceramicpro.com/kavaca/paint-protection-film/)?People can get a little religious about PPF, but in my experience of working with it, and using it, Xpel and Suntek are the top tier, then Avery, GSWF, then 3M (there's others, I just don't have experience of them). For Xpel, the wholesale pricing has the Ultimate Plus as the cheapest, Stealth in the middle, and Ultimate Plus10 at the top end, but there's still very little difference in the price per roll. Not sure if 2mil would make much difference, I guess it could, but I suspect it's more of a marketing thing for the wrap shop, as they're not paying much more for it.
No, sorry.Any experience with Xpel Ultimate Plus vs. Kavaca PPF (https://ceramicpro.com/kavaca/paint-protection-film/)?
