What PPF Is
A transparent, durable urethane film made from an elastomeric polymer that conforms to every contour of the car. It takes the hit instead of your paint: rock chips, gravel, bug acids, bird droppings, scuffs and light scratches.
PPF vs Vinyl Wrap
Color PPF is 8 mil thick. A vinyl wrap is 3 – 4 mil and is mostly for looks. PPF lasts 10+ years, vinyl 2 – 3 years, and PPF self-heals.
PPF vs Paint
Paint damage often means bodywork or a respray. PPF costs less than repainting and keeps the original factory paint, which protects resale value.
First Wash and Curing
Most small bubbles from install disappear within a few days to a few weeks as the film settles. For Color PPF, wait 72 hours before washing. We give you written aftercare at pickup.
How to Wash PPF
Hand wash with the 2×2 bucket method, XPEL Foam Soap and a soft microfiber mitt, rinse well and dry with a microfiber towel. Touchless washes are safe. Frequent harsh brush washes can damage the film over time.
Removal
Done properly, removal does not harm factory paint and leaves no residue. Film can be removed by a professional whenever you want.

Is PPF worth it on a Tesla?
PPF is the best defense against rock chips, road debris and scratches on the front of the car, which is where most Teslas pick up damage. XPEL Ultimate Plus is self-healing, so light scratches and swirl marks disappear with heat.
What should I cover on a Tesla?
Most owners start with a full front (bumper, hood, fenders, mirrors and headlights). Full body coverage protects every painted panel.
Does PPF void my Tesla warranty?
No. Our installs do not void your Tesla warranty, and XPEL PPF carries a 10-year warranty.
Can I get color or satin PPF for my Tesla?
Yes. XPEL Stealth gives a satin finish and XPEL Color PPF changes the color while protecting the paint.
Can I add ceramic coating over PPF?
Yes. XPEL Fusion Plus can go over PPF for a slick, hydrophobic surface that is easier to wash, without voiding the PPF warranty.
