Automotive Paint Protection Film ~ PPF

Clearly Protected – Paint Protection Film (PPF) is a durable, high-grade, colorless urethane film, applied to high-impact areas of your vehicle.

The hood, bumper, mirrors and door edges – that take the brunt of damaging road debris. Automotive Paint Protection Films go by many names in the industry. Known as Clear Bra, Clear Mask, Invisible Shield, Clear Wrap, Rock Chip Protection and so on.

This virtually invisible barrier helps protect against flying road debris, abrasion, weathering and also resists yellowing in sunlight.

If resale value is important to you, this is a great way to help keep the exterior looking like new.

The process…

It starts with cleaning the vehicle. Next, prepare the surface by using a clay bar to remove the any contaminants in the clear coat. The installation uses distilled water and a very small amount of baby shampoo. This is for positioning the PPF, then using a squeegee to remove the solution for adhesion.

Once applied…

PPF needs a few days to cure and a week before you can wash it. Synthetic waxes and PPF specific waxes are available to your vehicle paint clean, protected and looking new.

*We do not recommend any Carnauba or any wax with kerosene or Naphtha.

Frequently asked questions – SunTek PPF

  • Can I wax SunTek Paint Protection Film Matte?
    Some waxes will add a level of gloss to PPFMatte. However, there are waxes on the market specifically for matte finishes. Waxing is still recommended for added protection.
  • Can I take my car through a pressure wash with SunTek Paint Protection Film?
    It is best practice to wait 3 days before washing your car. While hand washing is preferred, you can use a pressure wash, but be careful near edges as the pressure water can lift the edge.
  • Can “coatings” be applied to SunTek Paint Protection Film?
    Ceramic coatings are approved for use with our Paint Protection Films when applied over the surface of the product. Ceramic coatings create an additional barrier for solvent and water penetration while not negatively impacting the performance or self-healing of our Paint Protection Film. This application will not void your warranty.
  • If there is a stain that won’t wash off, what do I do?
    If a stain will not wash off with a regular car wash, you can apply isopropyl alcohol to a microfiber towel and clean the stain, if that does not work you can use a small amount of lacquer thinner. If the stain remains we would recommend you use a mild-abrasive wax and polish the surface of the film to restore the original appearance. Polishing/buffing of the film is a great way to remove contaminants from the surface, however this process should be limited to as-needed or once every 12- 18 months. An example of a mild-abrasive wax would be Turtle Wax Renew RX Polishing Compound Light to Medium Cleaner.
