These both premium paint protection films (PPF) produced by XPEL, but they have some key differences:
XPEL Ultimate Plus
- Primary Feature: Known for its self-healing properties, which allow minor scratches and swirls to disappear with heat from the sun or an engine.
- Protection: Provides excellent protection against rock chips, scratches, and other minor abrasions.
- Clarity: Very clear and glossy, maintaining the original appearance of the car’s paint.
- Hydrophobic Properties: Offers some water repellency but not as advanced as the Ultimate Fusion.
- Installation: Designed for a seamless installation with precise cutting and fitting.
XPEL Ultimate Fusion
- Primary Feature: Combines all the benefits of Ultimate Plus with enhanced hydrophobic properties.
- Protection: Same high level of protection against rock chips, scratches, and abrasions as Ultimate Plus.
- Clarity: Also very clear and glossy, maintaining the car’s original appearance.
- Hydrophobic Properties: Superior water repellency compared to Ultimate Plus, making it easier to clean and maintain. This is due to a built-in ceramic coating that provides a slick surface.
- Installation: Also designed for a seamless installation with precise cutting and fitting.
Summary
- Ultimate Plus: Excellent protection and self-healing properties with good hydrophobic capabilities.
- Ultimate Fusion: Provides the same protection and self-healing benefits as Ultimate Plus, but with superior hydrophobic properties due to the integrated ceramic coating.
Choosing between the two depends on whether the enhanced hydrophobic properties of the Ultimate Fusion are worth the additional cost for your needs.
