Took my car back in for a full bonnet this time rather than the 1/4 kit, as I didn't like the look once dirt built up across the finish line, apparently I have the very latest film from 3m fitted, it's impressive you really wouldn't know it's on the car it's that good

I had the whole front, A pillars, sills and front of rear arches done with X-Pel the day after I picked my car up. This was fitted by Paintshield in Peterborough. They scan the car so the shield can be pre cut before it's fitted so no knives are used on the car. The X-Pel is a self healing product so scratches and swirl marks disappear when the shield comes into contact from hot water.

Sounds very similar to mine, as it's all pre cut, what's the clarity like on x-Pel?
