For those that have an XPEL or similar clear bra on their GTI's. I love the protection but I have noticed the edges of the material collect dirt and are very noticeable.

I have not had good luck in cleaning the dirt and was wondering if anyone has had any luck? Open to ideas.

Well, I have done a pretty good job preventing it by never wiping against the edge, but with it. If you pull a wash mitt or towel towards the edge you are pushing debris under it every time. May be too late now, but if you ever get it replaced or another vehicle with it, that's what I'd do. Also, avoid corners with wash-mitts and towels, as it WILL snag them eventually.

The only PPFs that don't have visible edges and corners that fold under are far too expensive for me to justify putting on a GTI. The "cheap" clear bra cost me $800 as it was, and that was a deal I worked out with the installer because I was getting so much done at once.
