**Premium PPF can still have defects - regardless of what the film costs.**
The black lines and arrows in this video are **Sharpie marks we added to the PPF to pinpoint the defects**. The markings themselves aren’t the defects; they show where to look.
It’s a useful reminder that a premium brand and a higher price don’t guarantee every piece of film will be flawless.
**Material quality and installation quality are separate things.** Even an experienced installer can encounter defective material. Spotting it, documenting it and addressing it are important parts of quality control.
For anyone having PPF fitted:
• Inspect the finished car with your installer under suitable lighting.
• Ask about any visible imperfections.
• Make sure concerns are recorded and a resolution is agreed.
• Understand the difference between the film manufacturer’s warranty and the installer’s workmanship cover.
A reputable product matters—but so does an installer who checks it carefully and deals openly with problems.
**Paying for premium PPF should come with careful inspection, not an assumption that defects are impossible.**
