After 5 days without my Bronco, it has finally been completed with Xpel Stealth, and I have been wanting to do this on one of my Blue color vehicle.

It kills the pop of Velocity Blue. Don’t mean to be a downer or negative, glad you love it! Just not a path I will take with my VB Bronco.

They did, I was told the template that is provided works well for Clear PPF, but not good enough for the Stealth for some areas, so some of the area is custom modify to fit including the hinge.

Curious how cleaning this will go. Or how long it maintains before starting to gloss up.

There are some very large downsides to having matte or even semi-gloss clear coats as you've got a moving target that is deteriorating with every touch. And the matte clears tend to do it in horrific fashion.

That is not to say it doesn't look cool, just that maintenance on matte surfaces is generally better for trailer queens and exotics than something that theoretically gets out away from Bell Square.

NO worry. Color is just a matter of personal preference. (Yeah, I am not joking, I just love cars in blue in general) I have many blue vehicles in this past 20+ years, and my Island Blue Mini SE EV is coming this Sunday. I love blue colors, so i doesn't hurt to have something different.

Not sure how long it'll last, but I think Xpel have a 10yrs warranty which covers parts & labors.

A little over $5K including tax. I received a small discount because I have been bringing my cars there for Ceramic coat for numbers of year. Feel free to PM me if you live in Seattle area and is interested..

I agree . I think it looks really good but you lose the luster of the paint that that gloss provides.

I really want to see a video of this side-by-side with virgin VB to see how much metallic is still coming through. I like the close-up shots because it gives a better idea of it than the wide shots do, but video with different angles and lighting... maybe an OF for your Bronco?
