XPEL FUSION PLUS is a professional silicon dioxide (SiO₂) ceramic coating developed by XPEL, the same manufacturer behind XPEL ULTIMATE PLUS and STEALTH PPF. This advanced coating utilizes a complex chemical matrix that molecularly cross-links with the vehicle’s painted surfaces and existing PPF. The result is a durable, 9H-rated protective layer that offers exceptional resistance and will not be removed through routine washing.
Unlike conventional coatings designed only for bare paint, FUSION PLUS is specifically engineered to bond correctly with XPEL PPF’s elastomeric topcoat as well as factory paint. This ensures a uniform, high-performance finish across the entire vehicle, delivering enhanced gloss, water repellency, and long-lasting resistance to contaminants.
FUSION PLUS Specifications:
FUSION PLUS was engineered specifically to perform on both painted surfaces and paint protection film. That shared origin means the two products are chemically compatible and designed to work together as a system.
FUSION PLUS is formulated to bond correctly with XPEL PPF's topcoat and factory paint, making it the only ceramic coating fully engineered for both substrates.
Creates a hydrophobic surface that repels water, oils, and contaminants, reducing buildup and making cleaning easier.
FUSION PLUS restores brilliance and improves visual depth, producing the "wet look" associated with a professional detail. Color appears richer and more saturated.
Dust, industrial fallout, UV rays, and environmental contaminants have a harder time penetrating or bonding once applied. Paint color and clarity are preserved against oxidation and fading over time.
Creates a slick surface that keeps vehicles cleaner for longer and reduces washing frequency.
4-Year XPEL Warranty
Manufacturer-backed coverage requiring installation by an authorized XPEL dealer. Sun Stoppers holds an active XPEL authorization at every Charlotte-area location.
FUSION PLUS and XPEL PPF address fundamentally different threats, and when combined, deliver protection that neither achieves alone.
XPEL PPF absorbs stone chips and physical impacts, with a self-healing topcoat that repairs light scratches automatically. XPEL FUSION PLUS applied over PPF adds hydrophobic properties, enhances gloss, and makes the film easier to maintain. Applied to bare painted surfaces not covered by PPF, it provides the same protection consistently across the rest of the vehicle.
The protection stack:
Physical impact absorption, self-healing protection, foundation layer on high-impact zones or full vehicle.
Hydrophobic surface, enhanced gloss, easier cleaning on top of the film.
Same hydrophobic and UV protection on all painted surfaces not covered by PPF.
FUSION PLUS performance depends entirely on surface preparation. A coating applied over contaminated or imperfect paint seals those imperfections permanently. Our XPEL-certified process ensures correct prep before any coating is applied.
We inspect the paint condition before coating. If swirl marks, scratches, or oxidation are present, paint correction is recommended first.
Clay bar decontamination removes bonded contaminants such as iron particles, fallout, and tar that would prevent correct adhesion.
Final prep removes remaining oils and residues. The surface must be completely clean before FUSION PLUS can bond correctly at the molecular level.
XPEL FUSION PLUS is applied panel by panel under controlled lighting. The coating is worked into the surface, allowed to flash, and buffed to a high-gloss finish.
We recommend waiting at least 48 hours before washing. Full cure takes approximately 2 to 3 weeks. You receive XPEL warranty documentation and full aftercare instructions at handoff. Ask about our loaner program when you book.
We don’t just apply coatings. We build complete protection systems tailored to your vehicle and driving conditions.

XPEL FUSION PLUS is a silicon dioxide (SiO₂) ceramic coating that bonds with paint and PPF to create a long-lasting protective layer that repels water, resists chemicals, and enhances gloss.
FUSION PLUS typically lasts up to 4 years, depending on maintenance and environmental conditions. It carries a 4-year manufacturer’s warranty when installed by an authorized XPEL dealer.
Yes. It is specifically designed to bond with XPEL PPF and enhance its performance with added hydrophobic protection and easier maintenance.
No. XPEL FUSION PLUS ceramic coating does not self-heal. Self-healing is a property of XPEL PPF’s elastomeric topcoat, not ceramic coating. If self-healing scratch protection is your priority, PPF is the appropriate product. FUSION PLUS and PPF serve different roles and are best used together.
Yes. Imperfections such as swirl marks or oxidation will be locked under the coating if not corrected beforehand.
Wait at least 48 hours before washing. Use gentle washing methods and avoid abrasive automatic washes. Touchless options are preferred.
Cost depends on vehicle size, paint condition, and whether the coating is being applied over PPF or to bare paint. We provide detailed, no-obligation quotes after reviewing your vehicle.
