A transparent, self-healing polyurethane film that protects against rock chips, road rash, and stains while preserving your OEM finish. Autobahn’s PPF adds optical clarity, hydrophobics, and VIN-tied CarFax registration with industry-leading warranties.

Most daily drivers start with Full Front; commuters and performance SUVs often choose the Driver’s Package (adds rockers/impact zones). Full Body is the pinnacle for long-term preservation or a new finish (matte or color).

Choose the finish you want: Incognito (gloss) for deep, paint-like gloss; Stärke (matte/satin) for a uniform stealth look; color films like Blak or Gun Metal for a bold tone; Carbon for a textured aesthetic.

Yes. The top coat is heat-activated, so light swirls and wash marring relax with warmth from sun or warm water.

Partial/Full Front: ~1 day. Driver’s Package: 1–2 days. Full Body: 3–5+ days depending on the vehicle.

We show “From $” starting prices. Your exact quote depends on vehicle, film, and coverage—start your estimate here and we’ll spec it precisely.

Common zones: hood, fenders, bumper, headlights*, mirrors, rockers, door cups, and other impact areas. Full Body covers every painted panel.
*Headlight coverage is model-dependent.

With proper care, Autobahn films are backed by strong warranties: Incognito – Lifetime, Stärke/Rüstung/Blak/Matte Blak/Gun Metal – 10-Year, Carbon – 5-Year.

On Incognito, Autobahn includes a one-time material credit (up to $250) to help replace film after accidental damage. Other films do not include No-Fault but carry their respective warranties.

Coverage is documented to your VIN via CarFax. Transfer options can depend on the film and terms—ask us at sale or trade-in and we’ll advise.

We use refined digital patterns and custom bulk where it looks cleaner. Edges are wrapped where safe and seams minimized; sensors and cameras are aligned and tested.

Yes—PPF and ceramic coatings work great together. A coating on top makes washing faster and helps the film stay cleaner longer.

Wait a few days before washing. Use pH-neutral soap, soft mitts, and clean microfibers. Avoid aggressive polishing; let the self-healing top coat do its work.

Yes. Professional removal with controlled heat releases the adhesive and preserves OEM paint beneath.

We spent years installing XPEL and invested heavily into that brand. We didn’t switch lightly.

Over time, we became increasingly frustrated with the direction of the company, the support for independent installers, changes in product consistency, warranty support, and the growing push toward dealer/OEM channels. We felt the brand no longer aligned with the way we want to protect our customers or operate our business.

So we walked away.

Today, we install Autobahn Incognito X because we believe it is the better fit for our shop and our clients. It offers outstanding clarity, self-healing performance, hydrophobic properties, strong impact protection, a lifetime warranty, and a $500 No-Fault Material Credit.

We don’t chase logos. We choose the film we trust most.

• The Entrotech Connection: For years, Entrotech was XPEL’s primary manufacturer, supplying roughly 75% of XPEL’s inventory. Entrotech itself used PPG paint products to create its films.
• PPG’s Acquisition: In May 2023, automotive coatings giant PPG and Entrotech formed a joint venture called PPG Advanced Surface Technologies. This transition effectively changed the operational control and ownership of the facility and intellectual property that previously produced XPEL’s films.

Those industry changes prompted us to reevaluate every premium paint protection film on the market. After extensive testing, we ultimately chose Autobahn Incognito X as the product we believe best serves our customers today.
