THREE GREAT REASONS TO INSTALL PAINT PROTECTION FILM

If you apply paint protection film on your car, you can be confident that the paint will be secure from damage since the film forms a barrier with unique features that keep out debris and other hazards. Here are three advantages if you’re thinking about getting paint protection film for your automobile.

EASE OF CLEANING

Your vehicle will seem more beautiful and new if it has just been painted and the paint is glossy. However, the brilliance will wear off with time, and you must wash or wax the surface regularly to restore it. The vast majority of automotive protection films are designed to resist dust, filth, and grime that is picked up while driving. If dirt adheres to the film, removing it is simple; you won’t have to do a full wash, reducing the time spent maintaining your vehicle while improving its appearance.

PREVENTING
CHEMICAL REACTIONS

To remove snow and ice from roadways, sand and salt are spread over them. Unfortunately, the chemicals are harsh on your car’s finish and other components. They eventually lead to chips. Paint Protection Film protects against the corrosive effects of acidic bird droppings and rain. As a result, the car retains its luster for extended periods.

We recommend waiting approximately three to seven days before washing following film application. Avoid getting too close to any edges while using a pressure washer; a distance of around 2 to 3 feet is sufficient and will prevent lifting. Pressure washing will prevent insect spatter and tree sap from adhering to the surface. Waxing the film once a month or after every wash with a wet spray-on wax can also assist. Avoid harsh chemicals and use only pH-neutral products.
