PPF is insurance for your paint, not cosmetics

A stone off the motorway, sand from a neighbour's tyres, a branch in a country car park — it all flies at the body and leaves chips. One chip down to bare metal starts corrosion, while a local respray costs tens of thousands and leaves non-original paint forever. PPF takes that hit instead.

Polyurethane 190–210 microns thick is elastic and self-healing: minor scratches from washes and branches close up with heat, while the factory clearcoat underneath stays untouched for 5–7 years. When the film comes off, the original paint is in perfect condition and the car sells fresher than its rivals.

What PPF gives you

Chip and stone protection

Thick elastic polyurethane absorbs gravel, sand and branches — the factory clearcoat stays like new, with no chips or corrosion.

Self-healing scratches

Minor scratches and wash marks close up by themselves with sun heat or hot water — the film is smooth again, no touch-up or polishing.

Keeps the car's value

The clearcoat stays protected, doesn't fade or age. At resale the car looks fresh and is valued higher, and the film comes off without a trace.

Pattern-cut install

Plotter-cut precisely to your model, edges tucked under, seamless fit on complex panels — no visible seams or overlaps.

Polyurethane

Three types of protective polyurethane — for three jobs

Polyurethane comes in three kinds: they differ not only in look but in what you get. We work with premium films — SunTek, LLumar, 3M Wrap Film 2080, Avery SW900, KPMF, PWF, Hexis.

01 · Gloss

Gloss polyurethane

A clear film that keeps the original paint colour and deepens it — the car looks showroom-fresh but protected. The best choice if you have beautiful factory paint and want to keep it.

Paint protectionColour keptDepth & shine
02 · Matte

Matte polyurethane

Matching matte paint and matte lacquer is extremely hard even for a premium body shop. Matte polyurethane solves it: a perfectly even matte surface over normal paint. The colour underneath stays the same.

Perfect matte, no resprayColour keptPaint protection
03 · Coloured

Coloured polyurethane

Changes the car's colour and protects the body at the same time. Thick dense pigment, even coverage. Ideal if you want a colour change but won't sacrifice body protection — two in one.

The key condition

Film lasts exactly as long as the paint beneath it

If the car was painted against the rules — poor panel prep, bad primer, under-cured lacquer — the film will peel off together with the lacquer. It's the most common disaster in the industry. So before wrapping we always check the paint condition and respray quality. If we have doubts, we say so honestly rather than wrap just to take the job.

  • Panel prep (sanding, degreasing)
  • Correct primer
  • Proper base (colour) coat
  • Lacquer of the right thickness
  • Full curing of all layers

These five points decide whether your body stays intact after the film is removed.

Technology

Body — polyurethane, door jambs — vinyl

Polyurethane at 190–210 µm is too thick to lay neatly into door jambs and hood/trunk seams. So we wrap those zones in vinyl — thinner, more elastic, a perfect fit for tight geometry.

We match the vinyl in the jambs as closely as possible to the polyurethane on the body. A perfect match is impossible due to the different materials, but we pick the closest tone from a huge palette.

Combinations

Vinyl + polyurethane = two layers of protection

These two films don't contradict each other. Combine them for either maximum protection, or protection together with a colour change.

Maximum protection

Vinyl under polyurethane

First the coloured vinyl goes on, then gloss or matte polyurethane on top. Double protection: 110 µm vinyl + 190 µm polyurethane. The body disappears, the paint is fully shielded, and vinyl lasts longer sealed under polyurethane.

Result
≈ 300 µm of combined film
Trade-off
Changing colour later is harder — both layers must come off.
Protection + colour change

Polyurethane under vinyl

First the body is sealed in clear polyurethane, then coloured vinyl on top. The vinyl can be swapped any time by removing only the top layer, leaving the protection untouched.

Result
Protection + easy colour change
Trade-off
Top-layer vinyl wears faster — that's normal.
How it works

Transparent from first enquiry to handover

No speed at the expense of quality. Every stage is documented with photos.

    We take the car in and log every paint defect — chips, scratches, orange peel. The photo report is kept on file for the before/after at handover.

  3. 03

    Quote sign-off

    Based on the inspection we choose film, colour and scope. We sign off the estimate and timeline — no surprises in the final bill.

  4. 04

    Work · 5–7 days

    Clean climate bay, degreasing, pattern-cut install with heat post-cure and wrapped edges. No rush, no parallel cars in the bay.

  5. 05

    Handover & check

    Final inspection with the client, before/after photo report, care guide. A free follow-up check after one month.

    Костю знаю несколько лет. Свои машины клею и тонирую. Несколько товарищей привел, так они тут же и обслуживаются. За такое качество, сервис и соблюдение сроков я считаю что цена даже немного занижена!

Approach

We look after your car for years, not just wrap it and forget

Wrapping is not a one-off service. We monitor the film, do seasonal maintenance, carefully remove and re-wrap when needed. We stay in touch after handover too — because film only works together with proper care, and we want the body protected for the full term, not just the first month.
