      Xpel stealing accounts from vendors

      I have no knowledge in this particular matter, but in similar cases I believe exclusive territories are contingent on a certain amount of volume that must be maintained. If a shop isn't meeting that volume their territory is no longer exclusive.

      Xpel stealing accounts from vendors

      As a consumer, I recently looked at the Xpel dealers on their website ( I know it's not accurate for low volume dealers that may not be listed). I will say it does appear that compared to 2 years ago, there it at least double to 2.5X dealers listed for my region than 30 months ago. And even of those listed, it is less than a handful I would use. This applies more to PPF than *tint* dealers

      Advise on adding another layer on 3M crystalline

      Hallo everyone,.. Just seeking adding another layer of tint onto existing 3M crystalline, I understand it is not recommended but doable mostly without issues. Here's the situation, - done 3M crystalline 60vlt on front windshield and 3M crystalline 40Vlt on the rest of the windows. - car is a Honda CRV Reason I'm looking for another layer is to make it darker, but I want to do additional layer only on rear windows and back windscreen, this is to comply with law enforcer by having front windows at 40VLT ( though the law requires 50VLT for front window). Here's the opinions and advise needed - I find that 3M crystalline give a slight greenish hue on the windows. If I add a layer of tint to rear window, will it result in ugly color mismatch? Greenish hue plus dark color kind of mismatched looks. I am thinking of making the rear to be around 25 to 30 VLT when i add another layer, I'm thinking without such a huge difference in darkness, the contrast between front and rear window won't be too drastic, ( and less ugly) - what type of 3M tint is recommend as a second layer to the original crystalline 40VLT ? I try to achieve "consistent" type of look between front and rear window, but just having the rear noticeably darker. I'm thinking that I'll be going back to the same installer, thus 3M tint as second layer seems to be logical choice. - is there any particular 3M tint that works best as a second layer ? In terms bonding or ease of work when applying.? - for the second layer, should I be looking at a VLT of 70% in order to achieve my desired end result of 25 - 30 VLT? base layer CRYSTALLINE 40 VLT plus second layer 70 VLT. -

      Xpel stealing accounts from vendors

      I've heard of Xpel doing this. In particular with preloading large dealerships with unqualified, freshly trained installers doing the work.

      Xpel stealing accounts from vendors

      I wonder if the dealership itself approached them. Since you're already doing work for them with XPEL, they could reach out directly to cut out the middleman and make more money as dealerships tend to be greedy. If so, the rep should reach out to you if they are aware you service the dealer. However, if the dealership says f them and set me up directly, then I wouldn't be shocked if any brand would do it. Once again, should have reached out to your team first. Just a thought, could be completely wrong. There was a similar complaint years ago on this forum where the shop got a good client "stolen" from them by XPEL. A new version of a car came in and XPEL wanted to make patterns of it but he was a longtime customer of another dealer. In the end, the dealership is the one who contacted XPEL about the car and they had no idea about this other dealer being involved. Not quite the same issue as yours but came to mind.

      Xpel stealing accounts from vendors

      So I was talking to our rep about our dealer accounts because he said he would like to know which accounts we had so they would not approach them. One month later they set up a plotter and installers in the dealership. After about 6 months they got kicked out because there work is terrible. Then they moved on to the other dealership and did the same thing.

      Xpel stealing accounts from vendors

      XPEL tends to have a lot of dealers but in my state no more than Llumar. We are the only dealer in our city, so nobody is super close to us. We don't service any dealers since they are usually cheap, so no experience with that. How are they stealing dealer accounts?

      Xpel stealing accounts from vendors

      So we use xpel at our shop and have had a ton of issues with them. They are stealing our dealer accounts. Has anyone else ran into this issue. Also they make it seem exclusive however there is three xpel shops within blocks. Anyone else ran into this issue?
