Regrets on My Bronco's PPF? How Xpel Paint Protection Film Transformed My Off-Road Adventures Review
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
In this video, I'm sharing my hands-on experience with the Xpel PPF (Paint Protection Film) on my black 2023 Ford Bronco Badlands, Buttercup 2.0. I've been using this protective wrap for over six months, and in this review, I'll dive into whether it's worth the hefty cost. I was initially skeptical of PPF wraps due to their expense, but I waited to provide a thorough assessment.
Let's rewind a bit to my previous Bronco, Buttercup 1.0, which had a 3M wrap. After witnessing the impressive protection it offered, especially when I peeled it off and saw the pristine condition underneath, I knew my new black Bronco needed similar care. Opting for a black Bronco for its universal appeal, I decided to go with a different approach this time - the Xpel PPF.
I chose the stealth finish and went a step further by adding custom graphics beneath the PPF, giving my Bronco a distinctive 3D look. Stressing the importance of professional installation, I handed the job to Tin House Customs, licensed installers of Xpel PPF, who are also fellow Bronco enthusiasts. They're located about 3 to 4 hours away from me in Davie, Florida, and the drive was well worth it.
Throughout the video, I discuss the ease of maintenance with Xpel PPF compared to traditional wraps, sharing my experiences with off-road challenges, tight trails, and potential scratches from branches. The self-healing properties of the Xpel PPF are a standout feature, providing peace of mind against minor damages.
I touch on the UV protection benefits, crucial for a black vehicle in a sunny environment, and emphasize that Xpel PPF is custom-built for the Bronco, eliminating the need for cutting and aligning pieces during installation.
Summing it up, I believe Xpel PPF is a substantial investment, especially for off-roaders. It's tailored to fit your vehicle perfectly, and in today's market where cars are expensive, protecting your investment is a no-brainer. I encourage viewers to consider Xpel PPF as one of the initial steps in safeguarding their vehicle. As I gear up for upcoming adventures in different terrains, I'm excited to see how the Xpel PPF will hold up over time.

Thank you!
First thing I did upon delivery was a full Stealth PPF. Absolutely a must. Best product around and worth every penny!

Totally agree!
I have XPel Stealth on my 23 BL and it's been 1 year. It looks as good as new, best mod I've done. You forgot to mention that it's impervious to bird crap which is a HUGE plus in my book.

The protection it offers is 👍🏼
Ran through some trails at Hard Rock with a nasty limb hanging down. Limb risers helped but every single one of us got the same deep pinstripes on our hood - mine were just as apparent and as all of us were later in the day lamenting about “that damn branch” yet my stripes were 80% gone. By next week in Florida sun they had completely healed. Xpel Stealth is the best.

That’s great news! Ppf for the win!
PPF is incredible, minimal maintenance. Worth every $$ spent on my '23 WildTrak

@@BuckleUpButtercupTV ITS PAINT PROTECTION, NOT PAINT PERFECTION. Ours came with a 10 year warranty, and once a year scheduled detailing. It's a hefty thousand(s) dollars but it's worth protecting your investment. And it's self healing, big plus!
Looks great! Any update on how it is holding up another 7 months later (over a year since install)?

Great video! How long does it last? What's the typical lifespan and warranty coverage?

It depends with what ppf you go with but 7-10 years ago
Did you compare Suntek to XPEL prior to selecting XPEL? Very informative video.

I never heard of suntek. I went with xpel as I know many with it and only had great things to say.
Hi Buttercup, What products do you recommend for maintaining XPEL Stealth PPF. JE

I have just used chemical guys washing products. The ppf has been easy to maintain :)
Sorry i missed it if you mentioned - how much was cost? Thanks!

I didn’t give cost because it varies so much by installer and region.

Hey Krista, do you think you will wrap the Mustang when you take delivery?🐶

I actually denied the Mustang a while back. It was supposed to go to Sema, but I decided against it. It was going to take too much time and I would rather focus on my business 🙂
How long will you leave this PPF on your vehicle before removing & redoing it?

@BuckleUpButtercupTV Hopefully it doesn't bake into the paint like my vinyl wrap did... it came off in pieces & had a ton of adhesive stuck to the vehicle
What’s expensive? I had mine wrapped in PPF with ExoShield windshield protection for $3k even. That’s the same cost of bigger wheels and tires installed. I’ll upgrade the K02s on my Badlands when they wear out at 60k and enjoy my factory fresh paint.
