Pictures of Matte Blue Model S

[Mandersoon]

Hey all!

Can those of you who have wrapped your S' in either just matte PPF or a custom matte blue of your choice send pics? I'm trying to figure out if I want to get an XPEL stealth PPF on my new S (whenever it actually arrives), or go for the cheaper route and do a color change to a different blue!

I also want to say that I believe someone posted a photo two or three days ago in the Model S delivery thread.

Were either of those XPEL Stealth? Considering for my silver metallic when it arrives soon.

Trust me I was searching before I posted here The problem is that most searches either A) turned up with Model Ys, or B) it was hard to tell what kind of wrap they were doing (i.e doing an actual wrap w/ a specific color vs just XPEL stealth), which is why I wanted to ask here.

Is this XPEL stealth? This is basically the build I have on order and that looks fantastic

 

[Ketorolac]

Yup xpel stealth

 

[DBMPlaid]

Mine is xpel stealth as well!

 

[Mandersoon]

Awesome, ty both of you! I'll just do XPEL stealth when I get mine then.

 

[PhilipRs]

Awesome. Did either of you add ceramic on the stealth? I'm given to understand it makes washing the matte finish easier.

 

[DBMPlaid]

Yes mine has ceramic on top. Cleaning it is a breeze!

Ceramic + CR spotless = ezpz clean, its more relaxing than most tv

Thank you both. Now, just looking for feedback on a dealer in Dallas.

I never got any feedback on a dealer in Dallas, so I'm just going with one, hoping for the best.

Getting back to this topic. I had to look up CR Spotless and realized on doing so that I had what looked like one of those years ago as part of a Cosmichrome system. It required similar water treatment. It took a bit, but I finally managed to locate it and it turns out to be the same thing, though it never occurred to me to use it for car washing. Looks like I just need to clean it up and see if it needs new media. Any tips for using it?

You don't need it for the soap buckets or the initial wetting of the car, just for the rinse. It works wonders. I still do a quick dry with a large microfiber drying towel after it because I'm paranoid about pollen, but it works fantastically. Washed my wife's SUV today when i did my Tesla and didn't use the drying towel after the rinse, looked great.

Beautiful! On the blue, does the XPEL STealth make the car darker?

I actually changed my order to blue from all of these photo's.

It makes it a liiiiittle bit darker (moreso in the shade), but generally stays true to the original color. I ended up getting mine done a couple weeks ago and it looks great!
