Taking delivery of a new car is a great experience, but deciding which paint protection option is right for you can be tricky.
To put it simply, paint protection films are the best way to protect your paint from physical damage because they provide your paint with a physical barrier from potential damage and weathering.
We’ll be covering what makes paint protection film significantly better than other automotive paint protection options. If PPF doesn’t seem to match your needs, you can explore the other options in our full guide on automotive paint protection.
Unmatched Physical Protection
PPF is a relatively thick layer of protection when compared to waxes, sealants, and ceramic coatings. This layer of highly durable plastic provides protective benefits that just aren’t possible with the alternatives.
Prevents Rock Chips & Minor Scrapes
PPF is the only way to prevent physical damage and missing paint caused by rock chips, hail, road salt, and minor scrapes.
Most cars, regardless of your driving habits, are at high risk of heavy rock chips, pitting, and regular wear and tear in the form of minor scuffs.
You should consider PPF for your car’s high impact panels if you:
- Daily drive a car that sees a lot of highway use
- Drive a performance sports car that’s low to the ground
- Drive a car with expensive or rare OEM paint
- Regularly expose your car to Winter weather conditions
- Drive your car on a race track
Prevents Paint Etchings & Weathering
Paint protection films are a guaranteed way to ensure that the paint surface beneath it is not exposed to UV fading and chemical etching.
Pairing PPF with a ceramic coating is the best way to ensure your car is protected from both physical damage and elemental damage. Read our new car protection guide to find out the most popular bundles we offer.

Extreme Durability
Older generation clear bra wraps were notorious for lifting, peeling, and yellowing. Suntek Ultra and Ultra Matte PPF are both extremely durable, self-healing, and anti-yellowing.
When properly maintained, our PPF will last more than 10 years!
This long lasting durability ensures your car will look pristine for the entire duration of ownership, while also preserving the value of the car.
10 Year Car Fax Warranty
Suntek Ultra and Ultra Matte are both backed by a 10 year warranty that covers peeling, lifting, yellowing, and bubbles.
This warranty is officially added to your vehicle’s CarFax history report and is non-transferrable. This means that your insurance providers will cover the cost of re-application should there ever be damage in a collision.
Flexible Coverage Options
Paint protection film installs can be tailored to your exact needs, choosing to install film only where you deem it matters most, unlike ceramic coatings which must be applied on the entire vehicle for a uniform appearance.
Pre-Cut Patterns
To ensure an exact fit and minimal use of blades on your vehicle, we pre-cut the film to the exact specs of your car’s panel with a plotting software.
The patterns in this software are highly accurate and customizable so we can extend coverage, wrap edges, and provide a seamless install.
With the use of these patterns we can provide an install that is tailored to your needs and driving habits.
Custom Finishes
Although PPF is most common in a gloss finish, Satin PPF and Black PPF can transform your car’s appearance without compromising on protection.
Vinyl wrap comes in many colors but, unfortunately, does not adequately protect your paint or hold up very well to weathering and physical damage.
Hassle-Free Paint Protection
As your car wears in, the paintwork can acquire many rock chips, scratches, and scrapes. This type of damage can only truly be fixed by repainting the damaged panels. Repainting your car can be a costly headache that even lowers its value in the long run.
EasY to Remove & Replace
PPF is much more durable than your paintwork, so it is significantly less prone to damage from rock chips and scrapes.
If your car is involved in a light scrape or sideswipe, the PPF will take the hit for your paint.
Rather than going through the hassle of repainting damaged paintwork, the film can quickly be peeled off and replaced with a fresh install. This is a huge benefit if your car is rocking an expensive or rare OEM paint, as repainting could potentially drop the value of your car.
