You might want to consider getting the clear bra and paint protection at the same time.
You might get a better deal plus best to do it while new.
I just got back from a 2,250 mile road trip and found 3 stone chips on the front of mine.
Closer examintaion showed that the XPEL was damaged but it had protected the underlying paint.
A little work with some very fine clippers (belonging to my wife!!) and the XPEL damage is almost not noticeable, either.

 

Sorry to hear about the paint. I explicitly told my dealer to remove any protective paper or whatever they cover the car in during transport and hand wash if necessary, but not to touch it with a buffer or apply any kind of wax or other coatings.

When I got it home I did a hand wash with Dawn dishwashing soap and did the "baggie test". I was kind of surprised to feel some rough spots so I did a clay bar treatment which removed some visible foreign matter from the paint. I then applied two coats of Turtle Wax Pro To The Max Graphene wax.

Yep the recommended break in period does seem a little long. A 4500 RPM max until 3000 miles is hard to resist exceeding. I only have 1200 miles on my car so far as it has been a very hot and dusty summer and the car has been garaged most of the time. But I plan on taking a lot of day trips to put a few hundred miles at a time on it now that fall is approaching and it will be ideal weather for some Sou Cal cruising and mountain jaunts.

 

yup, already scheduled. I'm having paint correction, CS Ultra ceramic, and Xpel installed on October 4th.

 

Falcor! Atreyu!

 

What???

 

hahaha

Another old guy who remembers the movie.

 

The cats do get louder as they breakin. The biggest change I noticed was right around when I hit the 1K mile mark. I just passed 2K and did not notice much of a change then.

 

Hahaha! I think it's Valcor, no?

Edit: Nope! Been saying it wrong for 30+ years! 😳
