Sharp color. But it would drive me nuts if I couldn’t wax it at some point.
How is the clear coat protected against UV rays?

Maybe it gets to go to the rail yard and see friends

Detail supply company Dr Beasley's makes several products, that are even OEM approved, for matte paint care. These include matte paint coatings. There are several other companies that offer products as well.

These Blackwings look better than I ever imagined in DEF. Congratulations to those of you getting deliveries.

If my Raven 5 ever is built that is my plan. Not only is this the first time I have ordered a car, it is my first new purchase ever. Our first child was born 12/9 so I figure full PPF will provide some stress relief for my anal retentive ways.

absolutely nailed it on spec! enjoy! I drove 200 miles before dropping mine off for ppf install and i cringed at every little pebble hitting it

You are PPF'ing a matte car? Which PPF are you getting? Can you please post pics when complete? Curious to see how it turns out.

its the xpel stealth ppf which is matte ppf. It doesn't change look of the matte paint. if you really examine a covered panel vs non covered you can spot a difference of sheen if you look at it from an angle but from straight on it looks the same. happy to post pics next week when i get it back.

My buddy just sent me these, live from Malibu. Apparently the green really pops in person.
