No-one pays extra for old and banged up PPF on a used car. If anything, folks may subtract the cost of removing old PPF from the value of the car.
Also, PPF hides some small paint imperfections, making it harder to evaluate the condition of the true state of the paint if there is film on top of it!

No, it's not a reality for everyone.
No one said sell the car with the PPF. Did you even read what I wrote? If you did you need your eyes checked
.
The value of PPF is in removing it before the sale (which you can do yourself with hot water and some time), revealing the perfect paint underneath. And compared to a car without PPF, the difference will be obvious, which will carry a higher price tag, thus the ROI.
I think this board is full of rich people that don't want to do the work themselves and simply trade their cars in. If that's the kind of person you are, then I agree, don't spend the money on PPF.

This is simply not true! A car that had PPF would be in better condition in those areas than a car that didn't have it, and therefore you can charge more for it because of the better condition. Or are you one of these guys that just leaves it as-is and trades? Then as I stated above, no need to PPF. But not everyone is like you, and there are plenty of people that get a ROI from PPF.
