Some waxes will add a level of gloss to Matte paint protection film. However, there are waxes on the market specifically for matte finishes. Waxing is still recommended for added protection. 

It is best practice to wait 3 days before washing your car. While hand washing is preferred, you can use a pressure wash, but be careful near edges as the pressure can lift the film. 

Ceramic coatings are approved for use with our Paint Protection Films when applied over the surface of the product. Ceramic coatings create an additional barrier for solvent and water penetration while not negatively impacting the performance or self-healing of our Paint Protection Film. This application will not void your warranty.

If a stain will not wash off with a regular car wash, you can apply 99% isopropyl alcohol to a microfiber towel and clean the stain. If the stain remains we would recommend you use a mild-abrasive wax and polish the surface of the film to restore the original appearance. Polishing/buffing of the film is a great way to remove contaminants from the surface, however this process should be limited to as-needed or once every 12- 18 months. An example of a mild-abrasive wax would be Turtle Wax Renew RX Polishing Compound Light to Medium Cleaner.  If you still can't remove the stain, stop by our facility, our detailer would be happy to help!

Detailing Clay can be used to remove contaminants that are on the film. If you still can't remove the contaminants, stop by our facility, our detailer would be happy to help!
