Good God that is outrageous. Whoever you got that quote from was tryingto rob you. I only wish I could get that much for an install. I would be retired in no time...

Keeping Your Bra Clean W/O Discoloration

Paint needs time to cure... water-base or not (good things come to those who wait).

If you paint & apply film too soon it will pull the paint off when removed.

Xpel - only film to use. Won't turn yellow unless you use the wrong wax*.

*no petroleum distillates ! They'll ruin Xpel film... or any film for that matter.
We make a couple of purpose made products for clear bra maintenance to make your life easier.

XPEL PPF Cleaner (16 oz)

XPEL Paint Protection Film Cleaner is designed to extract most environmental deposits such as tar, oil, hard water stains, bug acids and other contaminants from Polyurethane paint protection films. Its deep cleaning action restores the clear, glossy, freshly-installed appearance of the original film.
Part Number: R1331
Our Price: $19.95

XPEL PPF Sealant (16 ounce bottle)

XPEL Film Sealant is an acrylic polymer product that is purpose-made for protecting any aliphatic urethane paint protection film. Attaching itself at a molecular level, the sealant forms a hardened barrier when exposed to UV light. By sealing off the pores in the film, the sealant will reduce absorption of pollutants, tar, and pollen; as well as staining due acid rain, hard water and bugs by 90%. Because this product is engineered specifically for Aliphatic Polyurethane, it is much more durable on Paint Protection Film than other waxes and polishes. Apply XPEL Film Sealant monthly for maximum protection.

As for lines on a clear bra they are much less noticable if you use our Premium film. Check out this gallery www.execpaintpro.com/gallery. All the installs have the entire full front clip protected and the edges wrapped.

You can also visit any of our certified installers and request the same standard of protection. Just ask for our Premium film and ask to have the edges wrapped. Our design cutting DAP software allows for full customization for what you want.

Just visit our website at www.xpel.com and punch in your zip code on the homepage. A list of installers will appear in your area.
