I've had expel on my truck for a couple years and still looks new. Very happy with the expel.

I have had Suntek on my car for over 5 years and it still looks great. Garaged for most of its life but has also spent plenty of time out in the sun and has protected against all kinds of would-be rock chips.

When do you plan to try and peel them?

Thanks so much for your awesome videos and all the hard work put into producing these tests. Helps infinitely for us to chose the best product according to the budget we have and knowing in advance what to expect.
Looking forward to the glass sealant tests !
Even with 1 month behind, after 15 months Hexis Bodyfence has done very well. I don't think that after one extra month it would yellow all of a sudden or lose it's clarity dramatically either. Considering the difference of price between Xpel Ultimate+ and Hexis BF, no hesitation at all for Hexis. That's my pick.

Any info on Legend PPF? I heard it was made by someone who had owned Suntek.

Hi Scott thank you again for your videos on the different films. I just have quick question before choosing a film. I have a black vehicle and I am wondering which film I should go with? I've been leaning towards Suntek Ultra or Xpel but I've also been interested in Ceramic Pro Kavaca. Which would you choose? Any help is appreciated.

So the question is : Do you not install PPF and get rock chips... or install PPF just so it can turn yellow?

Hi Scott thanks again for the videos.
What ceramic coating would you take Adams graphene ceramic coating or Carpro Cquartz UK 3.0 thank you in advance!

Scott: gloss is more important to me than longevity. My Ferrari is selcom in the sun and I think gloss and shine are more important to me. I know you have that fancy gloss meter. What film ranks the highest in gloss and shine??

I have had Xpel on my truck can’t tell you how Disappointed I am spending all of that money and within 2 1/2 years had to take it off because it was yellow discolored it was not worth the money I’ll stick with ceramic coatings

It's really sad considering how much money people invest in having their car done in ppf. I wonder if ceramic coating the ppf would keep it from yellowing....but then again, coating it may affect its self healing properties.
