Which PPF Brand Should You Get For Your Tesla? Durability Test - Part 1 - TESBROS

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

With so many brands out there, it might be hard to decide which PPF is right for you. So, here's a demonstration where we test the durability of XPEL Ultimate Plus, 3M Scotchgard Pro, STEK DYNOshield, and Avery Supreme Defense - just a few top competitors in the market - to try to help you out. Here, I tested these brands on my old Tesla rear bumper, so you shouldn't have any doubts about me going too easy on it!

But no more polishing every 4 months means more time enjoying the cars. And little daily use scratches come out with sunlight or heat gun makes it worth the cost.

How does a satin finish PPF affect the different performance specs of each brand? do all the brands have a satin/matte alternative to there PPF? does this change affect hydrophobic qualities and or scratch-resistant qualities? We really like the matte look but would not go for it if it comes at the cost of certain performance drawbacks. In other words, does 3M have a matte equivalent that works the same as its gloss PPF?

    Congrats! well i would say these are the top brands in the industry, and comparatively to all the brands out there, it's still a good one. We did an updated part 2 testing recently and added llumar to the mix. kzread.info/dash/bejne/oYmXlZpugtPSmMo.html Might be helpful if you're still unsure about XPEL. But let me know if you have specific concerns or questions about any of them and i'd be happy to answer

    Most of them are right about the same range between 1200-1500 per roll and that's for a 5 x 50 feet. What will cost a lot is the labor if you pay a shop to do it. But regarding material costs, it's a bit tricky because a lot of the rolls you can't just buy off Amazon. It's a bit of a complicated mess regarding distributors and etc. Most easily accessible for consumers would probably be like Hexis Bodyfence or Avery or 3M at a reasonable cost. Hope this helps! Didn't mean to over explain things lol.

The newest is X Pel they use to use 3M before they had someone make there new film. You want to do a real test get a front fender in a dark color cover 12" wide and pass a sandblaster over the PPF and the not covered. This will impress anyone looking to buy a C.B.

    The PPF won't need to self heal if the elements can't get to it due to a ceramic coating. If scratches make it all the way to the PPF, that means that area is exposed, and it'll self heal.

    All of these are great. I typically use Avery or STEK, but you can't go wrong with any of these brands. Yes, you can add ceramic coating to all PPF to make it hydrophobic. I even recommend adding it to factory coated PPF as it will last years longer than the factory coating. You can DIY or have it pro installed. We like Gyeon Mohs Evo if you're going the DIY route. It's more forgiving than other coatings so it's easier to work with: tesbros.com/products/gyeon-q-mohs-evo-basic-bundle

    ppf is really hard if not impossible to find in bulk let alone as precut kits in the EU (outside of installers) for some reason, so I am pretty much limited to 3M and XPEL options for pre-cut kits (imported). I am suprised that 3M has a hydrophobic property since I cant find it anywhere in the specs on their site. I have heard Xpel is more forgiving but 3M Pro seems to be the better product overall. Is the film with hydrophobic properties even worth it or is it better to just apply a ceramic coat afterwards to get an even better result and does it interfer with the self healing property in any way?

    PPF lasts between 5 and 7 years depending on how well it's taken care of. It'll most likely have self-healing properties for the life of it, however, it might lose some of its effectiveness as time goes on. It's hard to give an exact answer as it all depends on how much the car is driven, car washing habits, and general wear and tear.

    Pricing depends on installer if you don't plan to do it yourself. The cost comes from color correction, chip repair, and labor of installing the PPF. Notice prices are regional and depend on how many installers in the area. Some installers use custom cut sheets and others cut from large roll and form to almost any size that needs protection. Find an installer that "tucks the seams" in cracks and around corners to help hide the film for an invisible look. It can cost $300-$700 for front end bra (headlights, side mirrors, front bumper), $1000-$1500 for entire front end (hood, bumper, fenders, headlights, side mirrors), and $3500-$4500 to do an entire sedan. PPF like Suntek and XPEL have a 10 year warranty.

    If you want to make another video with these PPF brands, I have a gross test for you. Bird poop. Put the fender(?) with 4 different PPFs under a tree where birds perch. When sufficiently covered in poop, use a hose to see which PPF takes the least time and effort to clean. They'll likely all be clean with a pressure washer. I wanted to see which cleans fastest, easiest with just a garden hose. It's moot for me. After seeing you video, I got 3M PPF on my Tesla Model 3. When I say it looks great, I mean I don't see it at all. I clean my car with just a pressure washer. No problems on the PPF or the paint.
