Curing Time: Allowing the film to set and ensuring edges are securely adhered.
Quality Control: Inspecting for any issues that may arise post-installation.
This process ensures a high-quality, long-lasting finish for your vehicle.
All of that can be done in a single day if the shop is working on your car only, with a follow up visit a few weeks later to address any issues.

Keep in mind he said it was only for hood and front bumper ppf (not fenders or anything more, no ceramic coating, no paint correction, no window tint, etc.). I've left my car for 3 or 4 days but that was for ppf on the entire front clip, rocker panels, roof, paint correction, ceramic coating (including wheels off service), and window tint (including the windshield).

Bumper and hood ppf should take no longer than getting your windows tinted, which is done in a day if not less.
