Installer trimming clear paint protection film along the edge of a blue car panel

Studio only ยท from $1,495

Paint protection film

Clear, self-healing film that takes the rock chips so your paint does not. Built for freeway miles on the 101 and the 202.

How we do it

Paint protection film is a clear urethane layer, about 8 mils thick, cut to fit each panel. It absorbs rock chips, sand, and light scuffs. Fine swirls in the film fade with heat, and in Arizona the sun does that for free.

We install it in the studio, where dust stays out and the film can set before it sees the road. Most people protect the front end, where nearly all chips happen. Some protect the whole car.

Roughly two sheets of printer paper, and close to invisible.

What is included

  • Wash, decon, and spot polishing before film
  • Patterns cut for your exact model
  • Edges wrapped wherever the panel allows
  • Studio install and an overnight set
  • Inspection at 2 weeks for any lifted edges
  • Manufacturer film warranty, often 10 years

Book this when

  • The car is new and the paint is still perfect
  • You drive the freeway every day
  • Your hood already shows a few chips
  • You want film up front and a coating on top

The process

  1. 01

    Prep

    Wash, decon, and a polish where needed, because film shows what is under it.

  2. 02

    Pattern

    Film cut from patterns for your model, with extra for wrapped edges.

  3. 03

    Install

    Slip solution, squeegee, and patience, one panel at a time.

  4. 04

    Set and inspect

    Overnight in the studio, then a final check before pickup.

Straight talk

Film is close to invisible, not fully invisible. Up close, you may see an edge line on some panels. We wrap edges where the panel allows and tell you ahead of time which ones will show a line.

Questions we hear

Can you coat over the film?

Yes, and many owners do. A coating on top makes the film slick and easier to wash.

Will it turn yellow?

Older films did. Current films resist yellowing much better. Keep it clean and out of brush washes and it should stay clear for years.
