Sorry for the late reply.
Yes: He offers a guarantee of replacement under conditions like you described.
UV protectant: VERY good point. I (previously) had two white X5's and in the case of my 2006 X5, the hood protector had to be re-applied and the paint beneath was identical to the non-treated area as far as its color.

Does he offer any guarantee against rock chips? I once had a sharp rock hit my headlight on the freeway (during the day). It ripped the 3m material but the headlamp was intact. It would have shattered for sure.
The installer replaced the section for free. This product was originally made for the leading edges of helicopter blades. It's still used, actually. It's a bit thicker though.
Either way, it's great stuff. You can wax it, polish it, and treat it identically to paint. The best part is, it shouldn't have a UV protectant in it, so it will allow the paint beneath it to fade at the same rate as unprotected paint.
At least that's how the 3m product works.
Thanks for the referral!
