Question 1

What is XPSHELL?

Accepted Answer

XPSHELL is a China-based automotive film manufacturer supplying PPF, color PPF, and window tint for distributors, installers, OEM buyers, and private label programs.

Question 2

Can I request samples before placing a wholesale order?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Sample-first buying is recommended so your team can test gloss, tack, hydrophobic behavior, self-healing, tint clarity, and packaging expectations before scaling orders.

Question 3

Is XPSHELL positioned as an alternative to XPEL, STEK, SunTek, LLumar, or 3M?

Accepted Answer

Yes. XPSHELL can support distributor programs positioned as big-brand alternatives while keeping brand language legal, accurate, and separate from copied packaging or misleading endorsement claims.

Question 4

Does XPSHELL support private label film programs?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We can discuss roll labels, boxes, warranty cards, sample books, manuals, series naming, and dealer kits for PPF, color PPF, and window tint programs.

Question 5

Does XPSHELL support OEM film supply?

Accepted Answer

Yes. OEM buyers can discuss film type, thickness, finish, topcoat target, packaging, documentation, and repeat supply requirements with our team.

Question 6

What is paint protection film (PPF)?

Accepted Answer

Paint protection film is a clear, durable polyurethane film applied to vehicle surfaces to protect against rock chips, scratches, bug splatter, and other environmental damage while maintaining the original paint appearance.

Question 7

How long does PPF last?

Accepted Answer

PPF life depends on film series, climate, installation, and maintenance. For wholesale and private label orders, confirm the exact warranty terms and test samples before scaling.

Question 8

Can PPF be removed?

Accepted Answer

Professionally installed PPF is designed for controlled removal by trained installers. Buyers should evaluate adhesive behavior during sample testing, especially for OEM or private label programs.

Question 9

Does the self-healing feature really work?

Accepted Answer

Self-healing topcoats are designed for light swirl marks and surface scratches. Request samples to compare thermal or fast-healing behavior before choosing a distributor tier.

Question 10

What areas of the vehicle can be covered with PPF?

Accepted Answer

PPF can be applied to virtually any painted surface — from a targeted partial-front kit (hood, fenders, bumper, mirrors) to full-vehicle wrap covering every panel. High-impact zones like the rocker panels, door edges, and door cups are also popular partial options.

Question 11

Will PPF change the appearance of my paint?

Accepted Answer

Clear PPF should preserve the original paint appearance as much as possible, while matte or satin lines intentionally change the finish. Distributors should compare gloss, haze, and surface texture through samples.

Question 12

Is window tint legal?

Accepted Answer

Window tint laws vary by country, state, and vehicle position. Distributor programs should map VLT choices to local rules before selling or installing a tint series.

Question 13

Will window tint interfere with my electronics?

Accepted Answer

Signal safety depends on film construction. Non-metalized, nano-ceramic, and dyed lines can support signal-safe positioning when the exact series specification confirms it.

Question 14

What should distributors compare before choosing tint?

Accepted Answer

Compare heat rejection positioning, UV protection, VLT range, clarity, privacy, color stability, signal-safe construction, sample availability, and warranty language.

Question 15

Does window tint block UV rays?

Accepted Answer

UV protection is a core tint benefit, but exact UV, IR, or TSER values should be tied to product-specific data. Ask for the relevant specification before publishing local claims.

Question 16

How do I care for my window tint after installation?

Accepted Answer

Avoid rolling windows down or cleaning the interior of tinted glass for at least 72 hours after installation to allow the film to cure fully. After that, use a soft microfibre cloth and an ammonia-free glass cleaner.

Question 17

What installation guidance should distributors prepare?

Accepted Answer

Prepare installer notes around surface preparation, slip solution preferences, stretch behavior, edge handling, curing expectations, and warranty boundaries. Keep exact timing tied to the selected film series and installer training.

Question 18

What care guidance should dealers give after PPF installation?

Accepted Answer

Dealer-facing care guidance should cover curing, first wash timing, cleaning products, edge care, and claim evidence. Use the approved warranty card or product sheet instead of generic promises.

Question 19

What maintenance language is safest for wholesale programs?

Accepted Answer

Recommend film-safe washing, avoiding abrasive compounds, and following the selected series guidance. Avoid blanket maintenance promises that are not backed by the warranty language.

Question 20

Should distributors provide installer training materials?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Dealer programs should include sample guidance, installer notes, warranty limits, and comparison talking points so local teams understand film behavior before selling it as a big-brand alternative.

Question 21

What does the XPSHELL warranty cover?

Accepted Answer

Warranty scope varies by product series, market, installation, and maintenance. For B2B orders, confirm warranty cards, claim evidence, roll codes when available, and handling rules before launch.

Question 22

Is the warranty transferable?

Accepted Answer

Transferability depends on the program and market terms. Private label and dealer programs should define this in the warranty card before publishing customer-facing promises.

Question 23

Does the warranty cover rock chip damage?

Accepted Answer

Warranty language should separate film defects from external impact damage. PPF is sold as a protective barrier, but claim handling should follow the approved warranty card and evidence requirements.

Question 24

How do I make a warranty claim?

Accepted Answer

For B2B claims, keep the order spec, roll code when available, installation context, photos or videos, and customer report. Clear documentation helps the distributor and factory review the issue faster.
