What is the best way to do this? My PPF is starting to yellow and I want to get rid of it.

It's pretty sad how quickly the OEM film starts to yellow.

I did mine with Ceramic Coatings South Florida. He pulled the film off starting at the top, moving horizontally and pulling at a 90 degree angle from the body. And left over residue, remove with a 3M wheel eraser at low speed on drill.

He's installing a new pair from Xpel which was 94$....

might be worth trying some gyeon ppf renew. i used this product to remove some etching from bird droppings on my hood.

Steam

If it were my car, I would take it to a reputable detailer that works w/PPF everyday. If not removed properly, there is chance you could damage the paintwork. Better safe than sorry!

How were the results ? Have three year old ppf that can definitely use a refresh.
