The city is home to over 50,000 registered boats and yachts, more than 100 marinas, and over 300 miles of inland waterways. More than 2,000 superyachts pass through Fort Lauderdale waters every year. The Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show — the largest in-water boat show in the world — draws over 100,000 visitors annually from 50+ countries. With that volume of boat traffic, marina activity, and year-round South Florida UV exposure, Fort Lauderdale is one of the harshest environments a boat finish can face. Constant docking, fender contact, salt spray, and intense sunlight destroy unprotected gelcoat and paint faster here than almost anywhere else in the world. XPEL Marine PPF is the definitive solution. ## What Is XPEL Marine PPF XPEL Marine Paint Protection Film is an 8-mil thick, transparent urethane film that bonds directly to a boat's hull, gelcoat, or painted surfaces. It physically shields against scratches, dock rash, UV oxidation, salt corrosion, fender rubs, and environmental wear. It has a self-healing top coat that repairs minor scuffs and swirl marks with heat or sunlight. It is engineered specifically for the marine environment — not adapted from automotive film. Available in clear or 40+ colors. Lasts 5 to 7 years. Backed by a 3-year XPEL manufacturer guarantee. ## Services Offered in Fort Lauderdale - **XPEL Marine PPF (Paint Protection Film)**: 8-mil transparent film for hull sides, outboard cowlings, transom, swim platform, gunnels, nav screens, and more.
