Descriptions of both:
1) XPEL:
Quote:
XPEL Film Sealant is an acrylic polymer product that is purpose-made for protecting any aliphatic urethane paint protection film. Attaching itself at a molecular level, the sealant forms a hardened barrier when exposed to UV light. By sealing off the pores in the film, the sealant will reduce absorption of pollutants, tar, and pollen; as well as staining due acid rain, hard water and bugs by 90%. Because this product is engineered specifically for Aliphatic Polyurethane, it is much more durable on Paint Protection Film than other waxes and polishes. Apply XPEL Film Sealant monthly for maximum protection.

2) Premier PF1 Crystalline
Quote:
Crystalline - To properly protect the paint protection film on your car, Crystalline is your solution. Our chemists were directed to create the world’s first nano bonding sealer for all types of paint protection film. Not only does PF1 Crystalline assist in protecting your investment on the clear bra, but it also provides added depth to the film that has never been accomplished before. The product does not contain any dyes that can potentially yellow the clear bra. The design of the nano crystals within Crystalline will bond with the acrylic clear coat of your paint protection film providing a long-lasting protective coating that also adds a deep shine and gloss to your investment. Cure time for Crystalline is only 15 minutes vs. some paint sealants to take up to 8 hours to cure. Once the crystals bond to the pores of the film’s clear coat, removal of the residue is easy and does not flake to a powdery form. 16 oz bottle - $58 (lasts approximately 8-12 months).

Nano bonding = Attaching itself at a molecular level?
Right now, I have the PF1 Crystalline product on the film since Premier applied a coat during the installation process. The XPEL product is a lot cheaper, but my main concern about it is that it contains dyes. Of course, I did not know this until after I ordered two bottles of the XPEL stuff
I'm sure a 16 oz bottle of each will probably last almost a year, and $20 is definitely better than $58/bottle. However, ruining the clear bra would also cost a lot more than that.
Thoughts?
