Happy New Year! Inside the Next Big Thing in Auto Protectio ; Peel Clear, Paint Innovation, and PPF

Описание: In this special end-of-year episode of The RoadFS Detail Memoirs Podcast, hosts Rod and Jody sit down with Paulo of Owner’s Pride Canada, an international detailing trainer and 2024 Detailing Olympics medalist. They discuss the evolution of Owner’s Pride Canada, Paulo’s innovative training programs, and the industry-shifting product Peel Clear—a new water-based peelable paint system offering the durability of PPF with the flexibility of paint.

The conversation explores how this breakthrough could transform automotive, marine, and motorcycle protection, giving body shops and detailers faster turnaround times, new revenue streams, and eco-friendly application methods. Paulo also teases upcoming training opportunities, partnerships with Invisible Patterns UK, and his global plans for 2026. The episode closes with laughs, gratitude for the detailing community, and exciting announcements for the upcoming Mobile Tech Expo and beyond.
