To get set up you’ll need a plotter, film and cutting software. Plotters are about $7k brand new, film will be a couple grand and if can get set up with a film manufacturer they should allow you to use their software to cut patterns.
@@DriveProtected I was thinking of flying down to Washington to do a training class. Then I could ask them for more detailed advice for the equipment I’d need. Do folks just start out ordering pre cut kits and having them deliver on as need basis per car ? Or maybe cheaper to just get trained and order bulk material to do custom cuts? Thanks for taking the time to help
Did you get trained through the Xpel Training course or how did you learn to do PPF , if you did go how was it ?
Yes I did! It was great! Well worth the financial investment!
Have you install the hood on this vehicle? I would love to see how do you install these hood on Silverado
Yeah I’ve done one. There’s a video I made a while back of me doing a partial hood.
Ok. I’ll have to find that and watch. Thanks Eric 👍🏽
I live near Detroit... I've been looking for someone that can do this but no luck... can you recommend a company?
Id just search up the term "Paint Protection Film Installers Near Me" into Google and I am sure something will come up!
How much is the initial investment? For ppf materials tools and printer etc ?
