Regarding XPEL..
I would highly recommend following their care instruction, especially if you have any warranty claims with the film in the future.
1. XPEL ULTIMATE Protection Film: Care Instructions
To keep your film looking great, follow a few simple guidelines:
Wait 48 hours after installation to wash your car.
Remove insect or other stains as soon as possible with bug and tar remover.
Stubborn stains can be removed with 99% isopropyl alcohol or lacquer thinner. Take care to keep these chemicals off the vehicle’s paint.
Seal with XPEL Flawless Finish Paint Protection Film Sealant at least once every 3 months to preserve high gloss
Light scratches in the film will self-heal in 20-30 minutes at room temperature. In colder conditions, or to accelerate the process, pour warm water (120°F) over the affected area.
2. All Other XPEL Protection Films: Care Instructions
Wait 48 hours after installation to wash your car
Use only soft terry cloth or microfiber towels on the film
Do NOT wipe or scrub the film in direct sunlight or when the film is hot
Do NOT use abrasive cleaners on the film
Do NOT use dyed or colored car waxes on the film
Removing Scratches
Most scratches in the film can be removed using a rotary or dual-action buffer. For best results, it is recommended to use 3M Perfect-It Machine Polish (part number 06064) used with their color coded buffing pad (Part number 05738). If needed, this product can be followed by 3M Perfect-It Ultrafine Machine Polish (part number 06068) used with the blue pad (part number 05733) to restore a deep, swirl free shine.
A long reply but hopefully answers your questions.
We are releasing a wax specifically formulated for the McLaren and will make an announcement shortly.
Kind regards,
Jason
