However, one shop, which provided a very fair price, has insisted that XPEL ultimate fusion should be used as it is invisible and 'is the highest level of protection with more hydrophobic properties and includes ceramic coating." More importantly, the shop also claims that the XPEL ultimate fusion 'will maintain the same exact matte finish' on my frozen grey.' The shop also calls it product 'fully body matte ppf expel ultimate fusion premium quality' on the invoice estimate.
When I talk to all other shops whose quotes I have acquired, they are emphatic to say that only XPEL stealth should be used on an original frozen gray (matte), and that using ultimate fusion will certainly turn the original frozen grey color glossy. The other shop that has offered a good price on ultimate fusion denies this still, and says ultimate fusion will retain the factory matte finish as it is invisible.
Advice? Thoughts? Any help? Does anyone have any experience putting ultimate fusion on an original matte paint?
Thanks, in advance,
Will

The shop pushing XPEL ultimate fusion for a Frozen paint are idiots. XPEL literally describe ULTIMATE FUSION as "high gloss".
If they can't figure out that a gloss film will result in a gloss finish, they shouldn't be anywhere near someone's car with a razor blade.
