XPEL’s FUSION PLUS^TM line includes:

FUSION PLUS^TM PAINT & PPF

When applied to paint and paint protection film, the slick ceramic coating helps prevent oxidation, loss of gloss, UV damage, bug impacts, color fading and paint chalking. The easy-to-clean coating reduces cleaning time and promotes a freshly washed appearance.

FUSION PLUS^TM WHEEL and CALIPER

Wheels and brake calipers are subject to extreme and constant heat cycles from road friction and brake usage. Frequent contact with water, mud, debris, and particulates can cause damage to the finish of wheels and calipers. Once professionally applied, FUSION PLUS WHEEL and CALIPER bonds to wheels and brake components for long-lasting protection.
