Tesla Model 3 Xpel PPF Window Tint Redmond

Tesla Model 3 Xpel PPF Window Tint Redmond

Tesla Model 3 Xpel PPF Window Tint Redmond Washington has been done and completed at Seattle ClearBra. We had the pleasure to work with this black Tesla Model 3 client. As with most all Tesla vehicle protection services we do he opted for the full coverage clear bra and window tinting. He decided to upgrade to the Xpel ULTIMATE FUSION ceramic coated paint protection film and Xpel PRIME XR window tint. With this combination he’ll have the paint protected for many years to come and a much more comfortable driving experience in his Tesla Model 3 with the window tint rejecting 60+ percent of Infared heat and 99.9% UV.

Seattle ClearBra Tesla Vehicle Protection Service

When we do Telsa’s or many other vehicles at Seattle ClearBra, we go above and beyond compared too many clear bra installation shops throughout America, and well beyond other paint protection film installers throughout the Greater Seattle region. This philosophy is also afforded to our other vehicle protection services clients be it a Lamborghini or Honda and anything in between. This said, we do offer packages that are not as extensive when it comes to parts removal or wrapped edges where needed.

Full front Tesla installations: We take down the front bumper, lower the lights, take off the emblem and remove the side camera or wheel well trim on the X and Y. This of course is in addition to fully washing the front end, clay bar and silicone wax removal process. This like the full coverage below allows us to wrap virtually every single edge around the corner providing a far cleaner installation. With this extensive preparation and installation, you have a full lifetime workmanship warranty to our Seattle ClearBra clients.

Full Coverage Tesla Installations: We take down the front bumper, rear bumper, lower the head lights, remove the taillights, take off the front and rear emblems, remove trim around the windows and remove the side camera or wheel well trim on the X and Y. This of course is in addition to fully washing and detailing the full vehicle, clay bar and silicone wax removal process. The reason for this is, to allow us to wrap virtually every single edge around the corner providing our clients a far cleaner installation. Also, with this type of installation, you get a full lifetime workmanship warranty through Seattle ClearBra.

Our client as previously mentioned opted for the new smoother ceramic coated Xpel ULTIMATE FUSION PPF, as he desired the simplicity of washing his Tesla, while getting all the benefits of rock chip protection provided by the Xpel paint protection film. Like near all other clients who contact s we went over the different options from full front, full front with rockers or full coverage vehicle protection services etc… The choice really was easy based on the value of his Tesla, and desire to protect the initial investment, plus ease of maintenance during his ownership. Preceramic coated film vs the previous generation of Xpel film being Xpel ULTIMATE Plus is the new option and overwhelming clear bra our clients want on their vehicles. To see the information on Xpel ULTIMATE Plus check out the link. We’ll have a new link to show the benefits of the Xpel ULTIMATE FUSON soon. Both films have a 10-year warranty and self-healing surface plus as always, a lifetime workmanship warranty through Seattle ClearBra.

Xpel Paint Protection Film

The 4 main clear bra films through Xpel have 10-year manufacturer warranties, self-healing properties and are as follows:

• Xpel ULTIMATE PLUS – This is a glossy transparent film used to protect most vehicles, be it on the body or interior pieces and interior screens.
• Xpel ULTIMATE FUSION – Same as the ULTIMATE PLUS except with FUSION PLUS ceramic coating applied during the manufacturing process.
• Xpel STEALTH – Satin matte transparent clear bra used to protect an existing satin finish on your vehicle, or to change from a gloss finish to a satin finish, while maintaining the original color.
• Xpel ULTIMATE PLUS BLACK – A clear bra film used to change a surface to a gloss black finish.

The benefits of a full coverage clear bra installation, beyond all panels protected from scratching and rock chips, is there will never be a need to polish the paint. This is because the Xpel ULTIMATE PLUS or FUSION paint protection film has a self-healing surface, that self-heals when its warm outside, allowing the film to heal from most minor abrasions. This could be from your washing equipment, careless hand, or item rubbing on the surface, especially when it’s a black or dark colored vehicle. To not oversell and exaggerate the self-healing properties, you can still scratch the film to a point of the clear bra surface not being able to heal. This would generally be by purposely scratching the PPF with a sharp object, or if someone tries to key the vehicle in an attempt to scratch the paint as some examples. The good news here is the Xpel ULTIMATE or Xpel ULTIMATE FUSION PPF clear bra will act as a barrier and sacrificial layer, very likely saving the vehicle from needing to go to a body shop for painting, saving time and money. Further to this, if you take your vehicle off-roading the pin striping usually done when tree branches rub down the side of the vehicle in most cases, self-heal when it’s sunny out. This would again save a good deal of time generally spent polishing out those fine scratches.

When it comes time for washing your Tesla, or any other vehicle with Xpel paint protection film, the process is as one would normally wash the vehicle. This can be in a brushed drive thru wash, touchless car wash or hand washed. At Seattle ClearBra we always recommend hand washing, although not required. One cavate to this is if you have Xpel ULTIMATE FUSION clear bra, or a Xpel FUSION Plus ceramic coating applied, or any other ceramic coating for that matter, it’s always best that your vehicle should be hand washed, and never an automated wash. The reason for this statement is, harsh chemicals found in automated washes will rapidly remove the ceramic coating, thereby wasting the money or time you spent applying the ceramic coating, as it will need to be re applied much sooner. Xpel has a great companion product used to keep your ceramic coating alive called Xpel BOOST. This product is applied after washing and will help keep the hydrophobicity characteristics of your ceramic coating working.

Xpel PRIME Window Tinting

We also finished off this Tesla Model 3 with window tinting. This is a great choice the client made to have done while his vehicle was at our Redmond Washington shop, saving time running around from shop to shop. He opted for the Xpel PRIME XR window tint series which will stop a great deal of Infared heat and near 100% UV rejection. There is also a Xpel PRIME XR Plus series of window tint film that incredibly stops even more Infared heat then the Xpel PRIME XR. At Seattle clearbra we have a carbon series color stable window tint film called Xpel PRIME CS which is used to provide shading, while not stopping much Infared heat rejection. This Xpel PRIME CS is more of a budget film for those who simply want the tinted look and not concerned about the heat rejection.

DYNOflex Windshield Protection

We of course went over the DYNOflex windshield protection film, which is a semi-permanent installation, that’s a sacrificial layer, taking the abuse vs the windshield. It’s expected that every so often the DYNOflex windshield film will need to be replaced in order to keep your windshield as clear as possible. The only minor complaint we, or anyone could have of this protection film for your windshield is, it does create a very minor distortion when focusing on little things while looking out the window.

Xpel FUSION PLUS Ceramic Coating

Since the Xpel ULTIMATE FUSION already has the Xpel FUSION Plus ceramic coating installed during the manufacturing process, there was no need to add this as an additional service for our Porsche Macan client. Ceramic coating is a very good idea if you always hand wash your vehicle. This said, if taking your vehicle through drive through car washes or funds, have you focusing on the choice of clear bra or ceramic coating, we would always suggest do the paint protection film first and foremost. The reason for this is the ceramic coating may last 2 years or more vs the PPF lasting upwards of 10 years or more, with a full 10-year warranty through Xpel and a lifetime warranty on the installation through Seattle ClearBra.

Xpel STEALTH Clear Bra PPF

Xpel STEALTH clear bra PPF paint protection film is a translucent satin finish clear bra designed to change the finish of your vehicles finish from gloss to satin matte or protect an existing frozen satin finish. Much like the Xpel ULTIMATE Plus clear bra, Xpel STEALTH has a 10-year warranty against bubbling, cracking, discoloration, or staining and a lifetime installation warranty through Seattle ClearBra. You can wash the vehicle as you see fit and even have Xpel FUSION Plus ceramic coating applied.

In addition to keeping your paint looking like new, the Xpel ULTIMATE PLUS paint protection film will give your vehicle a deep shine while making washing easier. You can wax, apply a sealant or have us apply Xpel FUSION Plus ceramic coating to your ULITIMATE PLUS clear bra if you choose.

Xel ULTIMATE FUSION Ceramic Coated Clear Bra

If you’d like to make an upgrade from Xpel ULTIMATE PLUS clear bra, there’s now Xpel ULTIMATE FUSION pre-ceramic coated clear bra PPF paint protection film. This new clear bra has all the same benefits as the ULTIMATE PLUS, expect with a ceramic coating already added, and a smoother surface. Xpel FUSION PLUS ceramic coating has been added to the Xpel ULTIMATE FUSION clear bra during the manufacturing process. This addition will make your job of cleaning your vehicle very easy.

A complimentary product to help maintain your ULTIMATE FUSION clear bra is Xpel BOOST. Xpel BOOST is a liquid you apply after you do a car wash by spraying it on your vehicle and wiping off with a microfiber cloth. This will help keep the life of the ceramic coating working longer then if you opt not to apply Xpel BOOST every so often.

Xpel PRIME XR Window Tinting

Seattle ClearBra offers quality window tinting services using Xpel PRIME XR tint from Xpel. This is a lifetime warranty Nano ceramic series of window tint, designed to reject infrared heat up to 88%. We also offer a standard carbon series automotive window tint called Xpel PRIME CS. In addition, we offer a top performance infrared heat rejecting window tint Xpel PRIME XR PLUS.

Options range from 70% VLT to 5% VLT with the higher number being the lighter film and lower number being the darker. VLT stands for Visual Light Transmission. 5% is known as limo tint in the window tint industry and the higher 70% film is virtually see through. The 70% is generally used on front windshield as it does very little to change the look of the window or limit the view from in or outside of the windows where applied.

70% VLT is legal in Washington State for the front windshield and about 24% is the legal limit for the front side windows.

VLT Percentages Offered by Seattle ClearBra at our Redmond Washington Shop:

• 70% – Has a very slight tint and almost unnoticeable. Used on front windshields to keep it legal or if you don’t want a tinted look but want the infrared and UV rejection offered by a Nano ceramic tint
• 55% – Is a bit of a tint and very easy to see in and out regardless of day or night
• 30% – Legal for the front side windows and getting towards the darker side
• 20% – Closely matches factory OEM tinted privacy glass that comes on the rear windows of vehicles 
• 15% – Not legal on front side windows or windshield and is getting pretty dark
• 5% – This is referred to as limo tint and very hard to see in, and difficult to see out at night when no lights around

Xpel FUSION Plus Ceramic Coating

Seattle ClearBra offers a high-quality ceramic coating Nano sealant being Xpel FUSION Plus to help protect your clear bra or other unprotected surfaces. This includes paint clear coat, plastic trim, fabric, leather, rims, windows, chrome and many other areas where ceramic coatings can be applied. Ceramic coating is designed and proven to prevent the contaminants from sticking and destroying areas protected. If you choose not to have clear bra installed on all painted clear coat areas, it’s recommended to polish aka do color correction on those areas to remove swirl marks, holograms and spiderwebbing. This will allow for the best look possible by preparing the clear coat on the paint surface to be protected by eliminating scratching.

The following area specific formulas are available for your vehicle:

• Paint and PPF – For use on the painted areas on your Tesla and on the clear bra paint protection film
• Wheel and Caliper – For use on the rim faces and inner tubs of your rims and painted brake calipers
• Upholstery – For use on leather, artificial leather, vinyl and carpeted areas
