Can I add XPEL protection when I buy a new Audi?

Yes. Tell your salesperson or send us a question, and we’ll set it up with Blackout Tinting.

How long does XPEL paint protection film last?

XPEL ULTIMATE PLUS and STEALTH come with a 10-year XPEL warranty from installation, covering yellowing, cracking, blistering and delamination.

What’s the difference between the 4-year and 8-year ceramic coating?

Both use XPEL FUSION PLUS. The 4-year option is XPEL’s most popular coating, and the 8-year option is its most advanced formula with the longest coverage.

Is window tint legal in Pennsylvania?

Yes, within limits. Pennsylvania restricts how dark the windshield and front side windows can be. Blackout Tinting can tell you what’s legal for your car.

Can paint protection film go on a used Audi?

Yes, if the paint is in good shape. Chips and scratches should be corrected first, since the film seals in whatever is underneath.

Can I get XPEL STEALTH matte film on just part of my car?

No. STEALTH is a full-car install only, so the satin finish matches on every panel. Clear XPEL ULTIMATE PLUS film comes in partial packages and à la carte.

Stop rock chips before they happen

Highway miles throw stones, salt and grit at your hood, bumper and mirrors. Clear XPEL film takes the hit instead of your paint, and you can barely see it’s there.

Ask About Paint Protection

Paint protection film, ceramic coating or both?

They do different jobs. Paint protection film is a physical layer that stops rock chips and scratches. Ceramic coating adds gloss and makes the car easier to wash, but it won’t stop a chip.

Many owners put film on the front of the car and ceramic coating over the rest. XPEL makes FUSION PLUS coatings that go on top of its film, too.

Window tint in Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania limits how dark you can tint the windshield and front side windows. Blackout Tinting can tell you which XPEL PRIME shades are legal for your car before you choose.

Gloss to matte, or a whole new color

XPEL STEALTH gives gloss paint a satin finish while it protects. It’s a full-car install, so the finish matches on every panel. A vinyl wrap changes the color entirely. Either way, the factory paint stays protected underneath.
