Paint Protection Film (PPF)

The Bay Area recently received the award for the worst roads in the entire country – so think of PPF like a giant screen protector for your vehicle. Paint Protection Film will protect your vehicle from debris, contamination, and rocks that can easily damage your vehicle while commuting on our roads. To put it simply, peace of mind is why we all, as Bay Area vehicle owners, need PPF.

You may receive quotes that seem “all over the place” when it comes to paint protection film pricing. In reality, there are only a few things that determine the price for your new paint protection film for your vehicle and reputable shops will all have similar pricing for your type of vehicle. The primary factors for price will be the type of car you have, the brand of film and the shop’s skill level and experience. Our pricing for paint protection film starts at $1.395. We are an authorized Xpel dealer which means all our products are from Xpel, a pioneering company in the vehicle protection industry. Our installers are trained by the most well-known trainers in the field. Finally, we do all custom paint protection film installs which means we hide as many seams as possible.

There are two warranties on your paint protection film. First, Xpel provides a 10 year manufacturer warranty that guarantees the adhesive will not fail, the film will not yellow, and the edges will not lift. We warranty our workmanship which is why we have you return two weeks post-install for a quality check to make sure the film is laying properly and to give your vehicle a complimentary wash!

Depending on the package you choose, we will need your vehicle for 2-6 days. If you add an additional service, like ceramic coating, that timeline could change. But, most installs are 2-3 days. We offer complimentary lyft rides home within 20 miles from our shop when you drop off your vehicle, so you do not have to worry about getting a ride home.

PPF is a sacrificial layer designed to keep rocks, scratches, and other road debris from damaging your car’s actual paint. When PPF is removed, the paint looks good as new because the PPF takes the damage for the paint. Ceramic coating on the other hand goes on as a liquid and then hardens once it is “baked.” Ceramic coating adds a thin layer of protection to your paint, helps strengthen your car’s clear coat, helps to keep paint from being damaged by the environment including UV rays, and makes the car hydrophobic to cut washing time up to 50%.
