## PRO TIP FOR MCLAREN 750S OWNERS
> *The McLaren 750S is the lightest and most powerful series-production McLaren ever built – a hypercar that pushes the boundaries of engineering. Based on 750S owner experiences, sensor specifications, and carbon fibre construction, here is your protection checklist:*
### Phase 1: Understand Your 750S's Unique Features
Before any protection work, understand that your 750S has:
- **Carbon fibre monocoque** – Specialist application required
- **4 front + 4 rear parking sensors** – Precision cutouts essential
- **Rear view camera** – Centre of rear bumper
- **Ultra-slim A-pillars** – Vulnerable to stone chips
- **Glass elements** – Glazed C-pillars (Coupe) or glazed flying buttresses (Spider)
- **Electrochromic roof (Spider option)** – NO PPF on glass
### Phase 2: The Owner-Recommended Standard
Based on actual 750S owner spending on McLaren Life :
> *'Full car PPF on a McLaren is usually between $9-$12k. I’ve had all of my Macs fully PPF’ed.'*
**Recommended for All 750S Owners – Full Body PPF + Ceramic:**
- *Full-body Premium PPF* – Complete physical protection for the entire hypercar
- *Single-stage paint correction before PPF* – Ensures flawless finish
- *Double protection on rocker panels* – As recommended by owners
- *Wheel-off prep and ceramic coating* – Complete wheel and caliper protection
- *9H Ceramic Coating over PPF* – Ultimate gloss, hydrophobic protection
- *Estimated Cost: ₹5, 00, 000 – ₹8, 00, 000+*
> *'Once you have one car fully wrapped, it's tough to go back to partial coverage. The self healing properties of modern PPF virtually eliminate swirl marks making the washing routine less critical.'*
### Phase 3: Spider-Specific Protection – Electrochromic Roof
If your 750S is a Spider:
- *NO PPF on electrochromic glass roof* – This is a high-tech component
- *NO ceramic coating on glass* – Clean with pH-neutral glass cleaner only
- *RHT mechanism* – Keep roof tracks clean; don't force operation
- *Glazed flying buttresses* – Glass elements; NO PPF
> *'The Retractable Hard Top (RHT) is optionally available with electrochromic glass, enhancing the feel of an open-air environment, even with the roof closed.'*
### Phase 4: Sensor-Safe Installation – THE 750S DIFFERENCE
Given the 750S's sensor suite :
- *Precision cutouts for 4 front parking sensors*
- *Precision cutouts for 4 rear parking sensors*
- *NO PPF on rear camera lens*
### Phase 5: Paint Correction First
Owners strongly recommend paint correction before PPF:
> *'I paid $11k on my 750s, but that included single stage polish, ceramic coating on top of PPF and full wheels off prep and ceramic. It also covered double protection on the rockers as mentioned.'*
> *'I had the whole car done with paint correction and ceramic. It gives the car that smooth, polished finish all over, and it makes washing a breeze.'*
### Phase 6: Legal Sun Protection – Your 750S is EXEMPT
**Important Legal Note**: Your imported McLaren 750S with factory-fitted tinted glass is **exempt** from the Supreme Court ban .
- *Do NOT remove factory glass* – It is compliant with Supreme Court orders
- *Do NOT add aftermarket dark films* – Could interfere with sensors
- *Magnetic sun shades for additional parked protection* – 100% legal option
### Phase 7: PPF Aftercare – Maintain Your Investment
**The Curing Process**:
- *Do NOT wash for 48 hours* after PPF installation
- *Do NOT use high-pressure water directly on PPF edges* – can cause peeling
**Critical Contaminants – Clean Immediately**:
| Contaminant | Action Required |
|:---|:---|
| Bird droppings | Clean off immediately – can etch through PPF |
| Tree sap | Clean off immediately – can stain permanently |
| Bug splatters | Clean off immediately – can leave permanent marks |
**DO NOT USE**:
- Automatic car washes with rotating brushes
- High-pressure water directly on PPF edges
- Harsh chemicals or degreasers
### Phase 8: Interior Protection
- *8-inch MIS II.I screen protector* – Anti-glare, anti-fingerprint
- *Carbon fibre racing seat protection* – Alcantara care
- *Door sill PPF* – Protects carbon fibre entry/exit areas
