Nero 458 Spyder in for Satin Guard, PhotoSync Nano Tint

Owner of this gorgeous 2013 Black 458 Spyder decided to get some paint protection film done. Upon arrival, he realized that we also specialize in the 9500Ci custom installs (laser jamming and radar detection). Having had issues with his other 458 Coupe's 9500ci installation, he decided to have us perform the work this time around (for his other 9500ci installation, every time he pressed the horn, it would trigger the radar detection, which is a sign of improper wiring).

PROJECT 458 SPYDER:

Satin Guard paint protection film - how does this differ from vinyl? It is approximately 3-4 times thicker than vinyl and only comes in translucent form. It also has Satin metallic flakes that can be seen in direct sunlight, which is the uniqueness of Satin Guard.

Sorry for the confusion. The 9500Ci is an actual laser jamming unit (http://www.escortradar.com/passport9500ci-details.php)

Satin Guard is a translucent paint protection film (aka clear bra) that has a 2 tone feature:
1. low light conditions - look matte
2. sunlight - exhibits satin metallic flakes in the film

Yes, that's correct. It will not harm OEM paint and will protect the paint like conventional clear bra.

The major differences between this and vinyl / foil are:

1. Satin Guard is 3-4 times thicker than vinyl / foil, which means it will protect better (just like paint protection film / clear bra)
2. Comes only in a translucent satin metallic finish - in ambient lighting conditions, it will look matte. In direct sunlight, it will have a satin metallic finish
3. Extremely easy to care for - just wash...no waxing or sealing necessary.
4. Satin Guard comes with an oil resistant finish, which means finger prints do not readily show up compared to matte vinyl.

When it comes to protecting your vehicle, there are many companies and options. Be sure to choose the outfit based on experience. There are actually many companies that pop up with extravagant websites and would tout experience, but due diligence is quite important. Just look at the business license (date it was started) and that will tell you a lot.

Now, back to the Satin Guard 458!
