Hi - Have used a few different brands of film with various chaps applying. IMO and I guess general consensus being that the self healing Xpel is
currently the superior product, my question relates to the 'slapping it on' bit...

Suppose like all skilled work there is going to be different levels one can hope to expect... Over the last few years I've seen the good, bad and dam right aero bubble bad!!

I'm central based and am looking for the BEST. Not the friendliest, not the cheapest (but always nice) not the closest, just the best at doing the job..

I don't want misaligned bits, edge lift a week later, stretch and heat marks, dirt, fag ash, lunch break crumbs or pubic hairs staring up at me...

Pricing seems to vary massively too - quoted between 2.5k and 5k for the same full car coverage using the exact same product ?!?! I have seen and experienced top price paid for barely mediocre finish achieved so afraid the old adage 'you get what you pay for' aint stacking up here.. Have recently chatted to a few companies who all now use the same product so guess its all down to the installation and the price - As mentioned the price quoted can often bare little resemblance . Looking for the best of both worlds - a top job without paying through the nose!

Any thoughts, recommendations or suggestions greatly received - Thanks

My car has been fully covered by PaintShield, I unreservedly recommend them to anyone, they did a great job.
Have used them in the past.. Ref my earlier comment - exact same film product pre cut kits installed for near half the price by some competitors..

Could it be that the end job is likely to be half as good ???????????????????????????
