Paint Protection Film

The perfect solution to protecting every vehicles paintwork. 

What Is Paint Protection Film?

PPF, or Paint Protection Film, is a transparent or coloured thermoplastic urethane film applied to the exterior of a vehicle to protect its paint and finish from various forms of damage. This technology has gained popularity among car enthusiasts and owners who want to maintain the appearance and value of their vehicles.

A PPF treatment involves the careful application of a protective film to a vehicle’s exterior, offering a range of benefits such as paint protection, self-healing capabilities, preservation of resale value, enhanced aesthetics, and long-term peace of mind. It is a wise investment for those who want to keep their vehicles looking pristine and well-protected.

PPF Treatment is backed by a 10 year manufacturers warranty.

How Our PPF Process Works

Step 1: Preparation

Clean the vehicle’s surface thoroughly to remove any dirt, dust, wax, or other contaminants that could interfere with adhesion.

Use alcohol or a specialised surface cleaner to ensure a completely clean surface.

Step 2: Pattern Creation or Cutting:

Use computer software or pre-cut templates to create the appropriate pattern for the specific vehicle model.

Alternatively, some installers may use bulk rolls of PPF and hand-cut the film to fit the vehicle’s contours.

Step 3: Film Application

Peel the backing off the PPF, exposing the adhesive side.

Carefully position the film over the desired area of the vehicle, ensuring proper alignment.

Use squeegees or other tools to smooth out the film and remove any air bubbles.

Pay special attention to curved or complex areas, ensuring the film conforms properly to the contours of the vehicle.

Step 4: Trimming

Once the film is applied, trim any excess material using precision cutting tools.

Trim edges to fit precisely around doors, handles, and other features of the vehicle.

Step 5: Heat Application

Use a heat gun to heat the PPF, which helps activate the adhesive and allows the film to conform more tightly to the vehicle’s surface.

Heat application also helps to remove any remaining air bubbles and wrinkles for a smooth finish.

Step 6: Final Inspection

Carefully inspect the installed PPF for any imperfections, such as wrinkles, air bubbles, or misalignment.

Address any issues as needed, using additional heat or pressure to correct imperfections.

Step 7: Curing

Allow the PPF to cure for a specified period, typically 24-48 hours, before exposing it to water or other elements.

Curing time allows the adhesive to fully bond to the vehicle’s surface, ensuring long-lasting protection.

Optional Additional Steps:

We also offer additional services, such as applying a ceramic coating over the PPF for added protection and shine.

Amazing service with a great team. Top quality job. Took my Mercedes for some work after paint damage and dents, he gave it back to me brand new the day I dropped it off. Thank you so much Erik and the team!

An excellent experience. There is a difference between someone who does something as a job and someone who is passionate about their career. Erik is definitely the latter - he offers a top class paint correction and detailing service. He is obsessive about getting the best result possible. I brought my car to him after a botch job ‘detail’ was performed on it and he restored it to as good as new. He kept me informed throughout the process and was honest about what he could achieve. A total professional and a gent. See photo attached.

Took my Mercedes S Class for paint correction and ceramic coating after noticing quite a few marks in the paintwork and I’m genuinely blown away with the outcome. Erik’s attention to detail is unreal, he took the time to properly assess the paint and explain the process rather than just rushing into the job. You can tell Erik isn’t just offering a service, he genuinely specialises in paintwork and vehicle perfection. He is professional from start to finish, great communication throughout and someone who clearly takes pride in his craft. It’s rare to find someone with this level of knowledge and care for high end cars. Wouldn’t trust my S Class with anyone else now.

EC did a great job in getting my 14-year old S2000 back into a really clean and shiny condition. Two other items done were leather seat reconditioning and convertible hood cleaning/colour correcting/re-proofing - which has made it like new.

Decided to go with Erik and am really pleased with that decision. He is meticulous and the attention to detail is excellent. He totally looked after my Porsche, and now she pops! Really happy.

I've found a detailer who I can trust. Erik is a highly skilled artist who takes pride in his work. He was honest during the initial inspection which I appreciated - explaining what could be done and also what couldn't be done. The results were genuinely spectacular and the car has been transformed. It's a 23yr old M5 so the paint has been through the wars, but Erik worked his magic and he exceeded my expectations. Looking forward to coming back for maintenance washes!
