Nope. Wax would melt (burn) off. A rag & this:

Somehow. I doubt this is DOT or LE approved... ;)

That's a subjective evaluation. Compare the IR & UV rejection of each (vs) the increase in cost, then determine if the benefit received it worth the expense. Yes, you will find a much better result, regardless the path if you tint the windshield (&, if equipped, the moonroof). - A removable...

If you have a quality ceramic professionally installed (which generally comes with a long-term, if not lifetime, warranty) -and- were underwhelmed with metallic, why even consider it. I had installed XPEL installed on all the glass in the greenhouse; gray-shade rear & sides; blue for windshield...

Rims & tires next to finish the look?

The Nitto Nomads I have on my '24 KR are in the same price range. I've had zero issues w/ them over the 20K/mi I've put on them. https://www.tirerack.com/tires/nitto-nomad-grappler

Can't cite the source (but a Googly-search should find it), but saw an article headline recently about how pending Fed law will adversely affect the reward-card environment. - Was heading into a company meeting, so didn't have time to dig deeper. If fact, not fiction, Ford may simply be an...

Congratulations and welcome to the forum.

Howdy, Mike. Welcome aboard...

I know it's kind of like being 6 years old on Christmas Eve with every second dragging on. Hang in there. It could be worse. Last year mine sat at the railyard <5 miles from the dealership for days...

Glad to hear everyone is well and were able to walk away from the event. Sorry to hear you didn't get to enjoy the KR for long. Look forward to seeing you post pics of the new truck when it arrives.

... or prophets from nearly 100 years ago. Philip Nowlan described similar capabilities in his, "Armageddon 2419 A.D." Unfortunately, our expanding knowledge and resultant technology is far too often applied to both constructive and destructive paths. It's a frightening enough world. It'll...

I'm using XPEL Prime CS Black 88 on the windshield (and Blue 90 on the moonroof) for the heat rejection while maintaining visibility. Over time the greenhouse that is the F-150's cabin will still heat up. However, by using the high-IR/UV rejection, the HVAC cools the cabin rapidly and hasn't...

In that I have the HUD, I need to go with OEM. The insult to injury is after I pay the deductible, wait for the part, have the windshield replaced & calibrated, I'll have to visit my local XPEL dealer/installers (John & Roxy) to have the ceramic tint reinstalled at an added cost. On the...

I have been a licensed driver since the 80s. I claiming, "driving" as a hobby. I routinely drive extended distances. I have also made it a priority to own at least one vehicle more than licensed drivers in the household. Yet until this month, although I have repaired a (small) handful of...
