Explored this further with the pro detailer I’ve used before to apply ceramic coating on previous cars.
To apply PPF to the entire Model 3 is in excess of £3.5k. No chance of me doing that.
His recommendation was that on the Model 3 it makes sense to apply PPF on the front bumper area as the lack of grill makes it quite prone to stone chips. Xpel PPF have a template to do just that. And then apply ceramic to the rest of the car plus a product to apply hydrophobic coating on the glass. I think I may go down that route as the ceramic coating, while it doesn’t provide protection vs stone chips, does make a real difference to keeping the car looking good and easy to clean. So I’m looking at around £1,200 for that. Seems a more reasonable option while protecting the area most at risk from stone chips.
