No. No need. Use shade.

I think ceramic with full detail was like $1250. I have a mobile detailer who details it monthly.
Ceramic tint was $480.​​
I didn't pay over msrp.

1st wash with the full wrap experience

Update: I just washed it for the first time. With the full matte wrap and full ceramic coating, it was a breeze to wash and then dry with a microfiber towel. I purchased my supplies from Griott's garage as recommended by XPEL manager in Houston. The large microfiber towel I purchased absorbed all of the water on the vehicle. As in it dried the entire vehicle without having to wring it out, and then I just threw it in the washer.

How is it to wash with ceramic coating but not PPFed? Also, how much were the rubber mats? The dealer in Houston with a 20% discount was $750 for the mats. That seemed excessive.

Having taken a couple of road trips, I love the PPF. No rock chips, and easy to wash. Reduces my angst. I'm now doing the interior PPF for additional peace of mind.

My 24 monza grey G63 is getting PPF as we speak. I am using Kavaca based out of San Diego.
My broker quoted me 10.5 for full warp with some parts removals.

That's a good price for a full wrap. Who's doing it and what dealer did you get the vehicle from? I purchased mine from Mercedes Benz of Anaheim.

My G63 went thru Beverly Hills.
The wrap is being done in San Diego.
