BMW M3 Touring – Full-Body XPEL Ultimate Plus™ PPF & Complete Gtechniq Ceramic Package
The Brief
This brand-new BMW M3 Touring arrived straight from the dealer with just delivery miles on the clock. The owner wanted total peace of mind—stone-chip armour on every painted panel and a ceramic coating package that would keep the vivid Portimao Blue, gloss black trim, wheels, and interior surfaces looking factory-fresh for years.
Studio Preparation
- Snow-foam pre-wash and safe two-bucket contact wash
- Iron fallout remover and clay-bar treatment to eliminate transport contaminants
- Single-stage gloss enhancement to refine the clear-coat and maximise colour depth
- IPA panel wipe in our 22 °C, dust-controlled bay to guarantee flawless film and coating adhesion
Protection Applied
Paint Protection Film
- Full exterior: Wrapped in XPEL Ultimate Plus™ 8 mil, including bumpers, bonnet, wings, doors, roof, mirrors, and rear bumper lip.
- High-impact areas: Side skirts, carbon splitter, and rear diffuser received extra wrapped edges for seamless coverage.
- Lights & gloss black grille: XPEL Light Protection Film to guard against pitting and UV fade.
Gtechniq Ceramic Coatings
- Crystal Serum Ultra + EXO v5 topper on all painted and PPF-covered surfaces for nine-year gloss, chemical resistance, and extreme hydrophobicity.
- C5 Wheel Armour on alloys and brake calipers for easier brake-dust removal.
- G1 ClearVision on exterior glass for superior wet-weather visibility.
- L1 Leather Guard and I1 Smart Fabric on M-Sport seats and carpets, plus C6 Matte Dash on interior trim for UV protection and stain resistance.
Results
- Flawless, invisible PPF coverage with tucked edges and no knife lines.
- Contact-angle readings exceeded 110°, meaning water now sheets off panels and glass.
- Gloss readings rose +6 GU after coating, adding extra depth to Portimao Blue.
- Owner received a bespoke after-care kit and maintenance schedule.

Salv and the team were class. I can’t believe how quick they get the full car wrap done, dropped it off Monday and picked it up Friday the same week. Much better than previous firms I’ve used. They made great suggestions to my initial ideas and helped it become a 10/10 result. Friendly and efficient service, I would highly recommend them.
