Xpel Ultimate Film Maintenance: What do you use?

[joebruin77]

I am having Xpel Ultimate PPF installed over my entire new dark blue Model 3. After it has cured, I plan on applying the Xpel sealant. I know many people prefer a ceramic coating on top of the Xpel PPF and I may do that one day, but for now I plan to try out the Xpel sealant on top. My question is, what product do others like to use on a frequent basis on top of the sealant? I used to use Meguiar's D156 Synthetic Wax spray on my old Subaru and am tempted to try it out, but I also heard CarPros Reload is also highly regarded. Someone else raved about Chemical Guys Clear Seal Gloss Enhancer and Protectant as yet another option...

I am looking for an after wash spray/product that will help maintain and protect the Xpel film and sealant, and add gloss to the appearance.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions and feedback.

Mine isf fully wrapped in Ultimate Plus and coated in CQuartz with a Gliss topcoat and I love it. It's a perfect combo, the luster is high and you can't even tell there is PPF installed. Gliss can be applied directly to PPF without an undercoating as well.

Thank you for the suggestion. I'll check it out!

Just an update and question. The Xpel Ultimate PPF looks awesome on my blue Model 3. This morning, I applied the Xpel sealant on top of the PPF and it looks great. However, on my last car, I used Four Star Ultimate Paint Protection Sealant and I think it was slicker and gave the car a deeper gloss. Is anyone familiar with Four Star Ultimate Paint Protection Sealant? Do you know whether or not it is safe to use on PPF? I know the Xpel website says you can use any sealant as long as it is not more than 5% naphtha or kerosene. I tried to find out if Four Star UPP contains naphtha or kerosene but had no luck. If anyone has this info, please let me know.
Thank you,

I have been a big fan of Rejex polymer coating for a number of years, but never thought about applying it on TOP of the film.

Has anyone used it that way?
