What have we been up to lately 🤭?!? Well we got certified for Paint Protection Film (PPF) !!
What is Paint Protection Film (PPF)?
Paint protection film (PPF), also known as a clear bra, is a durable, thermoplastic urethane film applied to painted surfaces to shield the paint from damage. It acts as a sacrificial layer, absorbing impacts from road debris, stone chips, and minor abrasions, protecting the underlying paint.
Key features and benefits of PPF:
Protection from Damage:
PPF guards against scratches, chips, and other minor damages caused by road debris, bugs, and environmental factors.
Self-Healing:
PPFs have self-healing properties, meaning minor scratches can be repaired with heat, either from the car's body or sunlight.
Aesthetic Appeal:
PPF can enhance the vehicle's appearance by creating a smooth, glossy finish and protecting against fading.
Resale Value:
By protecting the paint, PPF can help maintain the vehicle's value over time.
UV Resistance:
PPFs are designed to resist UV damage, protecting the paint from fading.
Chemical Resistance:
PPF can help protect against damage from bird droppings, tree sap, and other chemicals.
Easy Maintenance:
PPF is generally easy to maintain and clean, requiring minimal specialized care.
Where PPF is often applied:
Front End:
Hood, bumpers, mirrors, and headlights are common areas to protect against rock chips and other impacts.
Lower Panels:
Rocker panels and sills are vulnerable to damage from road debris and need protection.
Full Vehicle:
People can choose to have PPF applied to the entire vehicle for comprehensive protection.
With all that said we are currently in the process of equipping the shop with all the essential equipment needed and will be offering PPF here in the near future !!
