Interesting so, do tell - what color Frozen paint do you have? Which PPF product and which ceramic product did you apply? And, when you open a car door and reveal the boundary line between the naked painted surface and the treated/covered painted surface, do you see a variation in the color tone? Any color shift or darker surface? Would love to see some photos too!

I think that looks very elegant - nothing wrong with the photo "angles" per-se, just tooooo tiny. Can you post the original, full size images?

Also, any photos that show the naked frozen paint next to the Xpel surface?

Thanks in advance...
