PPF: Xpel good vid of how well it works
After he removed the old film and put a new one on....he didn’t mention whether the new film covered/hid some of the blemishes that penetrated the film? I assume he didn’t fix the paint?

Not convinced PPF is a must get.
Problem i still have is justifying paying a lot of money for the comfort of knowing that underneath the wrap is a mostly "pristine" paint job. You can't enjoy your vehicle's pristine paint (see it) unless you remove the "damaged" wrap. Once you do that, you get to stare at your "pristine" paint for a few minutes before spending even more money to cover its depth and shine once again until the next time you decide to remove the wrap. In between wraps, your PPF film will have defects, dents and nicks just like paint except the damage is to the film (hopefully) and not the paint itself.

Finally, a good friend of mine who tracks his two Porsche’s - a LOT. And he claims getting PPF is a “must” for anybody that regularly tracks their car. It is my understanding that for many “hits” on the PPF, “self heals” to some degree, and the car still looks mostly “pristine”.
