Question 1

How does the film self-heal?

Accepted Answer

Minor scratches and swirl marks fade out on their own. The top coat is an elastic polymer that flows back into shape, and everyday warmth from the sun speeds it up. Deeper damage is fixed by replacing the film on that panel.

Question 2

Which PPF finishes do you offer?

Accepted Answer

Clear gloss film is our standard, with Ceramic Coating on top included on every PPF job. Matte, satin and coloured films are available when you want a finish change. All installed in-house, and we match the film to the car and how you use it.

Question 3

Can I change my car's colour with PPF?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Coloured and satin films change the car's look without a respray. Fully reversible, no panel removal, no impact on the factory paint or warranty. Popular for Porsche, BMW M cars, and any owner who wants a finish change for a few years without committing.

Question 4

How long does PPF last?

Accepted Answer

Up to 10 years with the right care. The film resists yellowing and cracking, and it is backed by the full Ceramic Pro manufacturer warranty.

Question 5

How does PPF protect against UV, oxidation, and chemicals?

Accepted Answer

The film blocks UV before it reaches the paint, which is what causes fade and oxidation on horizontal panels. Bonnets, roofs, door tops. The chemical-resistant top coat also stops bird droppings, tree sap, road salt, and bug residue from etching the clear coat. The damage hits the film and lifts off in a wash.

Question 6

Can I wash the car normally after PPF?

Accepted Answer

Yes, after the first 7 days while the adhesive cures. Use a soft microfibre, pH-neutral shampoo, the two-bucket method. Avoid high-pressure jets within 1 metre of the film edges. Standard automatic car washes are fine, but hand washes preserve the finish longer.

Question 7

Does PPF come off cleanly?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The film is fully removable and leaves no residue or paint damage. We routinely remove and re-apply PPF when clients sell, change finish, or refresh after 7–10 years. The paint underneath stays in original condition. That's a large part of what protects resale value.

Question 8

When is the best time to apply PPF?

Accepted Answer

As soon as the paint is in perfect condition. Brand-new cars are ideal. Straight from delivery, before the first wash. For used cars, we run Paint Correction first to bring the paint back to factory state, then install PPF on top. The film locks in whatever paint state it sits over, so we start with paint at its best.

Question 9

Will PPF affect my insurance or factory warranty?

Accepted Answer

No. PPF sits on top of the factory clear coat and doesn't touch any structural panel or paint chemistry. Manufacturer warranties remain intact. Insurance treats PPF as an aftermarket protective layer. Declare it for value, no policy impact.
