What it is

Clear armor for the parts of your car that take a beating.

Paint protection film, also called clear bra, is a clear urethane film installed over your paint. It absorbs rock chips, road debris, bug acids and parking lot scuffs, and light scratches in the top layer heal on their own with heat.

Highway 60, I-44 and every gravel road in the Ozarks throw rocks at your front end. A coating makes paint shine. Film is what actually stops the chips.

  • ✓Stops rock chips and road rash
  • ✓Self-heals light scratches
  • ✓Virtually invisible on the paint
  • ✓Resists bird droppings, sap and bugs
  • ✓Protects resale value
  • ✓Can be ceramic coated on top
  • ✓Light paint correction included on every panel we film

Every install starts with a full wash, decon and paint inspection, then a light paint correction on every panel that gets film. Nothing gets trapped under it, and the paint sealed in looks its best.

The process

How we install your film.

Film shows every speck of dust trapped under it, so the install is slow, clean and done one panel at a time.

  1. 01

    Plan coverage

    We walk the car with you, look at how you drive, and agree on coverage and price before we start.

  2. 02

    Prep + polish

    Wash, iron removal and clay, then a light paint correction on every panel getting film so the paint underneath is clean and glossy.

  3. 03

    Custom cut + install

    Every piece is custom cut with our pattern software, and we edit each pattern to fit your exact vehicle. Then it is positioned, squeegeed and trimmed panel by panel until every edge sits right.

  4. 04

    Inspect

    Every edge checked under light, then you get care instructions for the first few weeks.

Film + ceramic combo. Film the front, coat the rest, and it is quoted as one job.

PPF FAQ

Good questions, straight answers.

How long does the film last?

Our clear film carries a 15-year warranty, and our colored films carry 10 years. Wash it the right way and it keeps doing its job for the whole stretch.

Will people be able to tell it is there?

Not from where anyone normally looks at a car. Every piece is cut to your exact vehicle, so the edges sit tight to the panel lines. Put your face an inch from the paint and you might find one.

Does PPF stop every rock chip?

It stops the daily stuff that eats a front end: gravel off Highway 60, chips on I-44, scuffs in the parking lot. A big enough hit can still get through, but film takes the thousands of small ones so your paint does not have to.

How do I wash a car with PPF?

Hand wash with a pH-neutral soap, keep the pressure washer tip away from the film edges, and skip the brush car washes. We go over everything with you at pickup.

PPF or ceramic coating?

They do different jobs. Film physically stops chips and scratches. Ceramic adds gloss and makes washing easy. A lot of our customers film the front, coat the rest, and we quote it as one job.
