Some TLC for my Mahindra XUV700: PPF on bonnet did make a difference

With all these highway mile-munching drives, the bonnet PPF is protecting from those stone-hitting / paint-chipping marks.

BHPian abirnale recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

It's been a year plus since the 3M guys applied the PPF on the bonnet - they wanted to see how it is holding after a year plus. I took this opportunity and got the car interior deep cleaned. Since the rainy season is not yet over, a simple wash and wax on the exterior was done. Some days later, I will get the paint correction and buffing etc done for the scratches #TheRedSparkle has!

The result is a sparkling #TheRedSparkle!

The interiors are now much better looking, smelling better too. The AC vents were sprayed with disinfectant. The interior is much brighter now - missed taking the pictures. (took only a video and haven't uploaded it yet.)

The difference is noticed by the home minister - the moment she sat in the car today evening, she figured out where I have been in the name of meeting a friend.

The PPF is actually making a difference on the bonnet - the different in shine on the surface is evident. The paint beneath the PPF is still looking sharp and red while the adjacent panels show the age. And with all these highway mile munching drives, the bonnet PPF is protecting with those stone-hitting / paint-chipping marks. The PPF takes the hit and self-heals with the heat, sweet!
