What Is Paint Protection Film?
Paint Protection Film (PPF) is an 8 millimeters thick clear film that is made from polyurethane. The product comes with a specially formulated adhesive in the back, which sticks to the surface of a vehicle. PPF can be used on top of existing paint, or vinyl wrap to protect the car from harsh weather or external conditions. Normally, Paint Protection Films have heat-activated, self-healing properties. This means any scratches on the film will heal on their own when heat is applied.
Why Use Paint Protection Film?
Paint protection film (PPF), or "clear bra" as it is sometimes known, is one of the best ways to preserve the showroom quality finish on your vehicle. The virtually invisible film will keep your vehicle looking newer longer — without changing the design features or color — by protecting vulnerable areas such as front bumpers, hoods, side mirrors, door handle cavities, door edges, rocker panels, and rear fender panels. Preserving the finish of your vehicle with car protection film keeps your vehicle looking newer longer, and can enhance the resale value of your vehicle in the future.
Key Features
One of the greatest features of PPF is that it is self-healing. When heat is applied to the film, any scratches from any form of contact will disappear. Secondly, the film protects the vehicle’s paint from discoloration and stains. The film will remain clear under the harshest conditions. The film is also non-yellowing, meaning when the vehicle is exposed to the sun, the harsh UV rays will not discolor the film. When the professionals at Official Colorado Detailing install PPF, you’ll also notice its durability. The film’s material can withstand any impact, which protects your vehicle.
Benefits of Paint Protection Film
The main benefit a car owner gains is the protection from rock chips, scuffs, and scratches. The light road debris as you drive, or other medium-to-heavy scratches will not affect your vehicle. It will also protect your car’s exterior from stains, spills, bird droppings, and bug guts. This will leave your vehicle looking as exquisite as a brand new car. In the event of a noticeable scratch, the film is easy to repair, so ensure you contact a professional. The paint protection film from Official Colorado Detailing also comes with an extensive product warranty.
Where can I put Paint Protection Film on my vehicle?
Paint Protection Film can be professionally installed anywhere you want to protect your vehicle finish from scratches, chips, stains and other damaging elements. More than just a "clear bra", the virtually invisible film will not alter the color or design elements of your vehicle. You can protect:
- Rocker panels from sand and stones kicked up by tires
- Hoods, bumpers, and mirror backs from flying gravel, bug acids, and tar
- Door handle cavities and door edges from rings, keys, belt buckles, and purses
- Full hoods, trunks, and roofs from bird droppings and tree sap

How Does PPF Compare with Ceramic Coating?
There are differences between PPF and ceramic coatings. On one hand, PPF provides physical protection against light road debris and paint scratches, while coatings are designed for UV light and chemical resistance. Also, the paint protection film will absorb small scratches and self-heal. In contrast, ceramic coating keeps contaminants away while creating a hydrophobic surface (much like wax). Ceramic coatings will not protect your car from the physical damage caused by rock chips and other scratches. When you get PPF installed from Official Colorado Detailing, it offers long-term preservation for your vehicle’s exterior.
How to Care for the Paint Protection Film
When you choose to install the paint protection film, there are some important points to consider when cleaning the vehicle. First, do not wash the car within the first seven days of the installation. This will give the film time to fully cure the car. Secondly, stay away from the film edges if you use a pressure washer. Keeping a safe distance prevents the high pressure from lifting the edges. After the experts at Official Colorado Detailing install the PPF, avoid using excessive force, harsh chemicals, machine polish, or wax on the vehicle.
