No. On healthy factory paint, professionally installed XPEL film is designed to protect the paint underneath and can be removed later without harming it.
How long does PPF installation take?
A Full Front PPF installation typically takes about 2 business days, while a Full Vehicle installation generally requires 5–7 business days. Installation times can vary based on the size and complexity of the vehicle, the coverage selected, and any preparation required before installation.
Because we are closed on weekends, Saturdays and Sundays are not included in these timelines. For example, a Full Vehicle dropped off later in the week may remain with us through the following weekend. We’ll provide a more specific completion timeframe when your installation is scheduled.
Should I install PPF on a new car?
The best time to install paint protection film is before the first rock chip, ideally soon after you take delivery. Starting with new, undamaged paint gives you the cleanest result.
