Ryan is very articulate and professional for his young years. I wish him every success for the future and a very informative video. Bravo.

PPF does have its noticeable benefits. I fitted PPF myself on some aftermarket headlights I had on my previous car. These headlights are notorious for hazing up quite quickly say within a year though I'm happy to say the ppf made it look like new for the 2 years I had the car for and sold them.

Interesting topic, I hope to drive my Cayman 987.2 until it patina very well like a vintage in years to come, I hope to drive the life out of it.

Hi Max.. I have XPEL on my 981 GTS (entire car) I put it on in 2016 but since my car is always parked inside the garage, the film is still good. I really wonder how long I should keep the film. And I wonder if there is any damage when the film is taken off....

Hi Uwe. My damage to the PPF has come from road trips. Guess it all depends on road surfaces. I hear Europe has some of the best road surfaces, e.g. France and Germany. If you cannot see holes in your PPF you’re doing well. Removing the PPF just leaves behind glue residue. Sounds like your case there is no need to mess with the PPF👍🏼

@@MAXREVS Thanks Max.....I agree with your assessment. I found this video so essential in content because most Porsche owners have some level of PPF and all these questions arrive long time after the car was applied with film. I try to drive primarily on "good roads" (which is relative in California), but since I mostly drive the canyon roads, I have learned to foresee issues and road surface and that has helped to cut down damage significantly. It would be good to have footage showing how your technician removed the film but may be he does not want all his work filmed. I know that some craftsman here in the USA like to work in private, not having someone filming what they do, even if they are very skilled. Thanks again...hope you are doing well.

Hi max did you not think about just removing the ppf and machine polishing the car and just ceramic coat the car.
@MAXREVS

My 987 had a full machine polishing with a top brand ceramic coating. IMHO… ceramic coatings provide almost negligible impact protection… the front bumper on my 987 required a full respray on sale. The bonnet had stone chips. With PPF, I’m sure my PPF will take a beating over time, but the paint will remain sound.

bit of a common misunderstanding about ceramic coating. It will preserve gloss and make it a doddle to wash but additional protection against stone chipping

Yes. Highly recommended by a friend of mine I’ve met through the channel. I am a bit OCD when it comes to car care. It’s more than a car to me. It is the summation of all my childhood dreams and hard work to-date. I wanted someone who understood this, is also OCD themselves, and could offer me what I felt was a good level of service for the amount of money I’m spending. This work isn’t cheap. Instead of dealing with a large firm, I’d rather speak to the owner, detailer, and installer all at the same time. Ryan the owner does it all. His name is on the line, and I feel he understands this and goes the extra mile which I feel the bigger firms couldn’t quite convey to me.

@@MAXREVS Hi Max I agree with your sentiments, I’d toyed with going to a big company recommended by a KZitemr with a few exotic cars, but as you say they are a big company with big company overheads, and you probably don't get to talk directly to te guy who is going to do the job. I’d previously had my 981 done by Autocurators (just two guys) and been very happy with the result, so when my 718 arrived I went back to them. The complete job came to £4,100 inc VAT compared to £5,000 plus VAT at the other place. They even did my wheels for no extra cost. I’ll be pleased to hear how your GT4 gets on, and perhaps we can compare notes at some future Porsche CLub GB R29 meet up. All the best Chris

Only the size, the 987 is more of a compact car for tight twisty roads. Plus the fact it was paid up on my side, as opposed to the GT4 which has finance.
