Protection · After collision repair
Paint protection film. Because you just fixed it.
A freshly painted panel is a chip magnet. Self-healing film locks in the finish the day it leaves our booth.

Protect the repair
You fixed it. Now seal it.
A panel that just left the booth looks factory — but it isn't factory-hard yet. Modern paint keeps curing for weeks after it's sprayed, and the front of your car meets gravel, salt and truck spray every mile. Film over the repaired panels means the finish you paid for stays the finish you drive.
- Fresh paint cures softer — repainted panels chip easier in their first weeks on the road
- The hood, bumper and fenders take roughly 80% of all rock chips
- Optically invisible and self-healing — nobody will know it's there
- Keeps the original finish intact, which protects resale value
Do the math
Film now vs. repaint later
Every chip that reaches bare paint is future refinish work. Here's how the two options compare over the life of the car.
| What matters | Paint protection film | Repainting chipped panels |
|---|---|---|
| Cost | from $1,100 | $5,000+ |
| Lifespan | 10 years, warrantied | 2–3 years until the first chips |
| Downtime | 1–2 days | 3–5 days |
| Resale | Protects the original paint | Diminished — resprays show on inspection |
How the film works
Scratches that heal in the sun.
The top coat of the film is a heat-activated elastic layer. Light swirls, wash marks and fine scratches settle back flat with sunshine or warm water — no polishing, no touch-ups. Underneath, the urethane body absorbs rock chips before they ever reach paint.
- Heat-activated top coat re-flows and erases light scratches on its own
- Stain-resistant against bugs, bird droppings and road tar
- Wrapped edges on the panels we film — no visible lines
