Paint Protection Film (PPF) FAQ
A: PPF is a virtually invisible polyurethane film applied to your vehicle’s painted surfaces to protect them from rock chips, scratches, swirl marks, and contaminants like road salt and bird droppings. It also has self-healing properties that help maintain a flawless finish.
A: The most commonly protected areas are the front bumper, hood, side mirrors, fenders, door edges, and rocker panels. For ultimate protection, many customers opt for full front or full-body PPF coverage.
A: Premium films like LLumar and SunTek last between 5 to 10 years depending on environmental conditions, maintenance, and how often the vehicle is washed.
A: Yes, it can be professionally removed without damaging the paint, especially if installed correctly and not left on past its lifespan.
A: No, it's designed to be optically clear. We also offer matte PPF options if you want to give your car a satin or stealth look.
A: PPF offers physical protection against impact and abrasion. Ceramic coatings offer chemical protection and shine. For best results, many clients combine both: PPF for high-impact areas and a coating on top for ease of maintenance.
Ceramic Coating FAQ
A: It's a liquid polymer that chemically bonds with your vehicle’s clear coat to create a long-lasting protective layer. It enhances gloss, repels water, and protects against oxidation, UV rays, and chemical stains.
A: Ceramic coatings last years, not weeks. They are more durable, hydrophobic, and resistant to environmental damage than traditional wax or sealants.
A: We offer coatings that last from 1 year to 7+ years depending on the product and maintenance plan.
A: It can resist minor swirls and scratches but won’t stop rock chips or deep gouges. That’s where PPF comes in.
A: Yes, but less often and with less effort. Contaminants don’t stick as easily, and your car will look cleaner between washes.
A: Absolutely. We offer full-vehicle protection, including high-temp coatings for wheels and brake calipers, hydrophobic coatings for glass, and stain-repellent coatings for leather, plastic, and fabric interiors.
Window Tinting FAQ
A: We offer dyed, carbon, and ceramic tint options. Ceramic is the highest performing, blocking up to 99% of harmful UV rays and significantly reducing interior heat.
A: Yes, we follow California tint regulations. For front side windows, we offer legal ceramic tints that allow visible light in while blocking heat and UV.
A: No. Our ceramic films are non-metallic and won’t interfere with GPS, mobile signals, or keyless entry.
A: Typically 2 to 4 hours depending on the vehicle and number of windows being tinted.
A: Yes. All of our films include a lifetime warranty covering bubbling, fading, or peeling.
A: You should wait 3–5 days before rolling down windows or washing the vehicle to allow the film to cure fully.
Vinyl Wrap FAQ
A: It’s a customizable adhesive film applied over the vehicle’s surface to change its appearance. Wraps come in various finishes—gloss, matte, satin, chrome, carbon fiber—and can also be used for graphics or branding.
A: Yes, the wrap can be removed by a professional without damaging the original paint (assuming the paint is in good condition).
A: A quality wrap can last 3 to 5 years depending on care, exposure to the elements, and film quality.
A: Yes! We offer partial wraps, accents (roof, hood, mirrors), stripes, and custom designs.
A: Hand washing is best. Avoid pressure washing edges and don’t use wax or polish unless approved for vinyl.
A: Yes, wraps offer a degree of protection against UV rays, minor abrasions, and weather. However, they are not as impact-resistant as PPF.
Detailing FAQ
A: Our full detail package includes exterior wash, clay bar, paint decontamination, polish, wax/sealant, engine bay cleaning, interior vacuuming, steam cleaning, leather conditioning, and window cleaning.
A: We recommend a full detail every 4–6 months. Regular maintenance washes every 2–4 weeks help preserve results.
A: Detailing is much more thorough and includes paint correction, deep cleaning, and protection services that go beyond a basic wash.
A: We offer paint correction services that can remove or reduce light to moderate swirl marks, scratches, and oxidation.
A: At this time, we focus on in-shop services to maintain quality control, but we offer pickup and drop-off options.
