I have the Xpel Stealth on my white ZL1 and love it. Gave it a very unique matte finish. Only thing that sucks about PPF on a white care is the dirt that collects on the edges of film seams, where its not noticeable on pretty much any other color :(

It's a relative thing. It's not that Xpel has a lot of orange peel or haze, it just has more than Suntek. If you look at them side by side under a detailer's light, you can see the difference. Outside in a parking lot, you'll likely never know.

Yeah white is a tough color to film. When you're already paying a few thousand, dropping an installer a few hundred extra to pull heat the extractor and emblems, custom-oversize patters and wrap/tuck edges is worth every penny.

If taken to the extreme the entire car can be filmed with only one small seam on the body line over each headlight. But even without taking the bumpers off, a good installer can hide other edges along the tight body panel joints. If you put a durable hydrophobic coating (not ceramic) on top of the film, it will help keep those few seams from collecting dirt (water lifts dirt up and away and it rolls off the car).
