Paint Protection Film (PPF) works by adding a virtually invisible layer of durable urethane film over a vehicle’s painted surfaces to protect against rock chips, scratches, road debris, bug splatter, bird droppings, and UV damage. The film is made with a self-healing topcoat that uses heat (from the sun or warm water) to eliminate minor swirl marks and surface scratches. It adheres to the paint with a special clear adhesive that bonds securely without damaging the paint underneath and can be removed cleanly if needed. Many high-end PPFs also feature a hydrophobic top layer that repels water and grime, making the surface easier to clean. Overall, PPF helps preserve the appearance and value of a vehicle while offering long-lasting, low-maintenance protection.
