Does anyone know if the wraps for Slate will be a PPF or a vinyl wrap?
Wondering if Slate has a supplier yet for their wrap and trying to see what brand Slate decided to go with too or are they building out their own?

I'm sure the wraps will be vinyl, not colored PPF, although there may be a PPF option as well.

Is PPF over the factory gray composite panels possible? I really want to preserve that original look. I think there’s something special about keeping the factory color with a gloss, matte, or even a ’frozen’ finish like I’ve seen on some BMWs.

I’d be happy to have a spray on protectorant once or twice a year.

That's a great question!

If that's workable they should offer PPF (Plastic Protection Film) Wrap Kits.

The answer is most likely:
We don't have information to disclose yet.
We'll have more details closer to production as we finalize specs.

Part of the reason the panels are coming in a basic grey is that is the easiest to do with additives for things like UV resistance. They know a significant number of trucks will be staying grey, so they will have a formulation that will stand up to the sun.

PPF would be for people who prefer to embrace less visible wear, which includes more than sun damage.
