How Our Windshield Protection Film Works

Our Windshield Protection Film is a durable, multi-layer polyurethane material that is professionally applied to your windshield. It absorbs and disperses the energy from road debris impacts, significantly reducing the chances of chips and cracks. Unlike traditional glass coatings or sprays, this protective film provides long-lasting, reliable protection without altering the look or performance of your windshield. It’s ideal for all types of vehicles:

• Daily commuters who frequently drive on highways
• Performance and luxury vehicle owners who want to preserve their car’s pristine condition
• Off-road and adventure enthusiasts who navigate gravel, dirt, and rocky terrains
• Fleet and commercial vehicle owners looking to reduce maintenance costs

How long does the film last? Does it come with a warranty?

XPEL Windshield Protection Film typically lasts between 3 to 5 years, depending on environmental conditions and proper maintenance. Regular cleaning and care can help maximize its lifespan, ensuring continued protection and performance. It’s also covered by XPEL’s manufacturer warranty for 1 year or 12,000 miles: whichever occurs first.

Professional Installation for Maximum Protection

At Midwest Tinting, we specialize in the professional installation of Windshield Protection Film. Our experienced technicians ensure a seamless application, providing maximum coverage and durability. With our precise installation process, you can drive confidently knowing your windshield is well-protected.

1. INITIAL CARE

• Post-Installation: After installation, avoid washing your vehicle for at least 48 hours to allow the film to properly adhere and cure. XPEL also recommends purchasing and installing a new set of premium windshield wiper blades.

2. WASHING GUIDELINES

• Hand Washing: We recommend hand washing your vehicle using XPEL Wash Solution or Foam Soap and a soft microfiber mitt. Rinse thoroughly with water.
• Pressure Washing: Keep the nozzle at least 36 inches (1 meter) away from the film when using a pressure washer. Avoid spraying directly at the edges of the film to prevent lifting. We recommend using a 40-degree nozzle.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use strong chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaning tools on the film, as these can damage the protective coating.
• Drying: Always dry the vehicle with a clean, soft microfiber towel to avoid water spots. Avoid letting the vehicle air-dry in direct sunlight.

3. STAIN AND CONTAMINANT REMOVAL

• Bird Droppings & Bug Splatter: Remove contaminants like bird droppings and bug splatter as soon as possible to prevent staining. Use warm water and a pH neutral soap (XPEL Wash Solution or Foam Soap). In an emergency on-the-go you can apply XPEL SiO2 Waterless Wash to the affected area and wipe off with microfiber towel.
• Tree Sap & Tar: For stubborn contaminants like tree sap and tar, use a 50/50 Water & Isopropyl Alcohol in a spray bottle. Spray the mixture directly onto microfiber towel and wipe the affected area.

4. WINDSHIELD FILM MAINTENANCE

• Regular Cleaning: To maintain the clarity and appearance of the film, clean the film regularly with XPEL Wash Solution or Foam Soap. For an all-in-one solution, the XPEL TPU Windshield Protection Film Maintenance Kit (M1291, sold separately) includes XPEL Waterless Wash, Waterspot Remover, and Glass Cleaner.
• Avoid Waxing: Do not apply waxes or polishes that contain dyes, abrasive compounds, or solvents directly onto the film.

5. WINTER CARE

• Snow and Ice Removal: Avoid using sharp tools or metal scrapers that could damage the film. Govered or garaged parking is recommended

6. IMPORTANT NOTES

• Wiper Blades: We recommend replacing your windshield wiper blades regularly to prevent scratches or damage to the film.

7. WPF RESTORE

• XPEL WPF Restore Application: WPF Restore enhances the hydrophobic properties of the film, ensuring optimal
  performance and longevity.
