In 2025, XPEL continued to be the foundation of nearly every paint protection project coming through our shop. With so many options out there, it’s important for drivers to know they’re choosing one of the best brands of paint protection film for their vehicle. XPEL continues to lead the industry for one simple reason: it performs better, lasts longer, and looks incredible when installed by a certified PPF professional.
At Detail PHX, we have installed thousands of square feet of XPEL paint protection film this year, and every project reinforced the same result: unmatched clarity, powerful self-healing properties, and long-term durability that stands up to Phoenix’s intense heat and harsh sun.
Whether you want something bold or understated, protective or transformative, we offer:
- XPEL High Gloss PPF for a deep, wet, mirror-like shine
- XPEL Matte PPF for a sleek satin finish that completely transforms a vehicle’s personality
Both options protect against scratches, rock chips, sandblasting, chemical etching, and UV damage, because style should never come at the cost of strength.
Pairing PPF With Ceramic Coatings: The Ultimate Shield
One of the biggest trends of 2025 was customers wanting to combine XPEL PPF with ceramic coating for the most complete paint protection package available.
This combination delivers:
- Maximum hydrophobic performance
- Easier washing and maintenance
- Longer-lasting shine
- Extra defense against staining, oxidation, and environmental fallout
When paired together, PPF acts as the durable impact barrier, and the ceramic coating enhances gloss and slickness while adding chemical resistance. The result? A vehicle that stays cleaner, shines brighter, and stays protected longer, no matter how intense Phoenix’s climate becomes.
