Suntek PPF?

[Likeomg]

Picking a new to me ( 18 month old 4k miles) car up in December;

I did have a good look and the paint looks to be immaculate, Is Suntek the go to stuff currently to make sure it stays good?

My only experience with anything like this is 3m helicopter tape for use with my mountain bikes and the sill's on my other car's..


Apparently the car has a Gtechniq detail followed by the film application...


I plan to cover the whole front end, anybody care to share some experience ?

Not used Suntek before but seen many cars with PPF but it all depends on what you're trying to achieve.

If you want protection from stone chips, PPF is the best out there however up close you do notice it and you'll need to engage an expert to achieve the best, unnoticeable application. There have been some right PPF horror stories which have ruined the looked of the car.

If you're looking for maximum shine, a ceramic coat like Kenzo is another option. Slightly cheaper, less stone chip protection but makes the car look amazing. If you go this route, the bodywork will first need touching up if it's not in excellent condition already.

Xpel films are excellent, no firsthand experience of Suntek.

If the car has been Gtechniq coated the PPF installer may have issues with application due to the slick nature of the Gtechniq coated surface - a little extra prep time beforehand should be all that's required.
