XPEL Stealth Matte PPF
Turn heads with a factory-grade satin finish while protecting your paint from everything Sacramento roads throw at it. The ultimate blend of style and protection.
Why XPEL Stealth Stands Apart
Not just protection — a complete aesthetic transformation that rivals factory matte paint.
Instant Satin Finish
Transform any gloss paint to a head-turning satin/matte look — without permanent paint changes.
Self-Healing Tech
Light scratches and swirl marks disappear with heat from the California sun or hot water.
Factory-Grade Look
Matches expensive factory matte finishes like BMW Frozen or Mercedes Designo at a fraction of the cost.
10-Year Warranty
XPEL's manufacturer warranty covers yellowing, cracking, peeling, and staining.
The Ultimate Matte PPF for Luxury Vehicles
Factory matte paint looks stunning — BMW's Frozen finishes, Mercedes Designo Magno, Porsche's satin metallics. But it comes with a premium price tag and notoriously difficult maintenance. One wrong wax or automatic car wash can leave permanent shiny spots.
XPEL Stealth gives you that same head-turning satin finish on any car — without the hassles of actual matte paint. Better yet, it protects your original gloss paint underneath. If you ever want to sell or switch back, just remove the film and your factory paint is pristine.
The film transforms gloss into satin by diffusing light rather than reflecting it sharply. Applied correctly, it creates a uniform matte appearance across every panel — something impossible with aftermarket matte paint jobs that often look patchy.
XPEL Stealth for Tesla & Luxury EVs
Tesla owners love Stealth. The Model Y and Model 3 in particular look transformed with a full satin wrap — the lines and curves of the body really pop with the light-diffusing finish. It's become the most requested customization at our Sacramento shops.
EV paint is notoriously soft, making protection even more important. XPEL Stealth gives you style and protection in one application. We edge-wrap every panel for a factory-seamless look that appears painted on, not applied.
Self-Healing Technology
Like XPEL Ultimate Plus, Stealth features self-healing properties. Light scratches, swirl marks from washing, and minor abrasions disappear when exposed to heat — whether from the California sun or warm water. Your satin finish stays perfect even with regular use.

XPEL Stealth FAQs
Can you put XPEL Stealth over gloss paint?
Yes — that's exactly what it's designed for. XPEL Stealth transforms gloss paint into a uniform satin finish while providing full paint protection. The film creates a consistent matte look across every panel, mimicking factory matte paint jobs from BMW, Mercedes, and Porsche. And unlike actual matte paint, you can remove the film later if you want to return to gloss.
How do you clean and maintain matte PPF?
Use matte-specific car wash soap — anything labeled 'matte safe' or 'satin safe.' Avoid waxes and polishes that contain gloss enhancers, as they'll create shiny spots. We strongly recommend ceramic coating over Stealth (using XPEL FUSION PLUS Matte) for easier maintenance. The ceramic layer adds hydrophobic properties so dirt and water slide off without scrubbing.
How much does XPEL Stealth cost?
XPEL Stealth runs about 15-20% more than Ultimate Plus due to the specialized satin finish. Full front packages typically run $2,000-3,500 depending on vehicle size. Full body Stealth wraps range from $6,000-9,000. We provide exact quotes after seeing your vehicle since complexity varies significantly by model.
