Post some pictures. I don't have the seams shown on that blue car.

My F80 M3 had an stock Xpel precut pattern wrap, the joints and relief seams were different, wider gaps and more of them, also it didn't go all the way to the edge or over them. Installers will modify the stock patterns...there are levels of quality even in precut patterns. Again, not talking about a full wrapped edge custom job.

That SunTek install looks great!
I've had Xpel in the past and used only their cleaner and I had the same experience with the film getting sticky and grabbing fuzz out of the microfiber. If you acted quickly you could get a quick wipe in but after that you would make the condition worse by wiping more. When I picked up my latest Porsche my detailer tried to convince me that the newer versions of the film didn't do this but I wasn't convinced. I'm glad I didn't do PPF again...but maybe I should look at SunTek.

I have Suntek installed.No seams I can find. the installer demo took a wire brush and scraped a sample .... I cringed .
He then heated it lightly and healed like new.
use regular cleaning products no problems looks great.
