2022 Tesla Model Y - Annual Checkup - Interior and Exterior Ceramic Coating!

2022 Tesla Model Y - Annual Checkup Interior and Exterior Ceramic Coating in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights

This repeat client of ours from the Lampasas area brought his 2022 Tesla Model Y for his annual checkup (we re-apply a one year ceramic coating during these visits), and to refresh the interior ceramic coating. The 2022 Tesla Model Y white vegan leather tends to get blue jeans and other transfer on it, so keeping it clean and ceramic coated is essential. Before this annual checkup, this 2022 Tesla Model Y clocked about 30k miles in the last year, and the clear bra/PPF we installed last year is holding up well.

In addition to his 2022 Tesla Model Y annual checkup, we had also ceramic coated his wife’s Kia Telluride, and so to say he’s a believer in the process is an understatement! First we conducted an auto detailing on this car to ensure the surfaces are clean and ready for ceramic coating. The interior ceramic coating was the client’s primary concern, and so we removed some existing minor stains and scuffs from the white vegan leather, and then re-applied ceramic coating!

PAINT PROTECTION FILM/PPF/CLEAR BRA OPTIONS:

Typically, we would use STEK clear bra, Llumar, or Legend PPF gloss or matte paint protection film. Next, This clear bra article covers the major differences between clear bra/paint protection film/PPF companies, if any. Moreover, there are minimal differences between major film manufacturers like Xpel, SunTek, Eastman, Llumar, 3M, STEK clear bra, Flexishield, Global, Legend, and more. Importantly, the key takeaway is that the primary differences are in the properties of the adhesive, which installers have to deal with, but generally don’t affect anything the client sees.

is clear bra/paint protection film/PPF the same as xpel film?

Of course, our clients at HHCC frequently ask about Xpel clear bra/paint protection film. Naturally, our clients want to know if Legend PPF, STEK, Llumar, Kavaca, and other brands compares to Xpel at all. Did you know, a lot of people use Xpel to mean clear bra, because Xpel is one of the most popular brands? Besides the information above about clear bra/PPF, we also discuss Xpel and if it’s the same as PPF/clear bra in this article.
