Default Xpel installer SW Florida

Does anyone know a good Xpel installer in the Naples Florida area? My Z06 is getting torn up!

Might be better played in the regional forums. And I'd search in that regional forum first for Xpel, might get you results immediately.

I know how to find them, i just wanted a testimonial from someone that had used the individual. I see here that on some occaisions the installer cut the clear coat while installing the Expel, and I'm trying to avoid that.

I had a few issues with my install from a company that MacMulkin uses. I live in FL so going back to NH to get it resolved was not an option. They called xpel and asked for the best installer in Central Florida. I am going to see him tomorrow. I know you said south FL but if this guy is THAT good, I am sure you would take a few hours to get it done right. I will let you know tomorrow if that works for you.

I checked out an installer in Sarasota. Went there and saw a Ferrari, Porsche GT3, and a Tesla X model.

Laser cut kit but he wraps edges were he can. Does not cut on the car. They also will apply ceramic Opti coat.

He will be doing mine in a week or two.

There is an Enterprise Rental store a few blocks away.

Who is the installer in Sarasota?

Auto Paint Guard/Tampa is a well respected installer that also provides paint correction and window tint. Full service beginning to end. Not sure if the OP wants to travel that far north however.

I've heard of a couple folks that have had them done at their house, I'm guessing just a clear bra or some small areas, not a full wrap? Doing any PPF takes time, space, a clean shop, etc.

I know the shop I used buys the XPel PPF in bulk rolls and has a big plotter like machine that cuts them in shop. That's not equipment you can roll around with you.

Personally, I'd rather have it done at a shop where they can control the environment. Might depend on your garage setup I guess, but I think most of these places operate out of a shop.
