V4 Ceramic Coating Or Paint Protection Film

@rob lewis can you offer advice for @Freerange_egg ?

 

YES...BOTH...In fact, protecting matt is very important indeed as if you scratch matt there is nothing that can be done to rectify the damage...

 

I had a quote for full XPEL for my Ducati 888 that I have just restored, which came out at a fairly reasonable £325 + VAT including the fork tubes. This would be a custom job as they don't have a template, but many companies have templates for many of the modern bikes.

 

Your not driving fast enough then...

(So wouldn’t worry about your recent “say cheese”)

 

Your right. I wasn’t going fast enough. Front panel on that car ended up peppered with what looked like a 12 gauge....
Gone PDF on the new car

 

I wash my car once a year with a bucket of gravel whether it needs it or not - spoil it I do

 

Great answers from Rob again.

 

Xpel Ultimate Plus is the industry-leading self-healing PPF currently available on the market....we apply this to many vehicles entrusted to us.

 

Load of waffle aimed to sell products.
I get that car washers need to make money but don’t think for one second that I’ll ever believe a car cleaner can do a more competent job than me.

 

I’m having my new gixxer ceramic’d

 

As I am (unfortunately) a million miles from Huddersfield, could you recommend any products for matt paint? Cheers!

 

I would get paint protection film deffo if I owned a matte bike or vehicle....ceramic will NOT provide stone chip protection...

 

Thanks Rob. I was uncertain about paint protection film on matt. I had used it on gloss paint before, and it was excellent but added a little shine. Is it XPEL STEALTH that you'd recommend?

 

Correctomundo....Xpel Stealth is the one to go for....we have applied this to many vehicles and it is a truly remarkable film....it WILL NOT add any gloss whatsoever but add ' body ' to your matte finish...you won't be disappointed.
