The DMV area can be unforgiving to vehicles, with extreme cold weather, winter snow ,road salt, potholes, construction, and flying debris posing constant threats to your vehicle’s exterior.
Additionally, the challenges extend to parking lots, where car collisions, bird droppings, road tar, and more can harm your vehicle’s paint.
Looking for comprehensive protection against these elements? Your best bet is paint protection film (PPF), also known as a clear bra.

Price is based on size, condition, and the type of coverage you’d like on your vehicle. We can work with what you specifically want!
With proper maintenance this look will last for long while(a decade even) BUT if you don’t have the time to properly maintain your car and take it to the car wash it will degrade the look of the car very fast as they use hard cleaning methods and chemicals that will scratch the vehicle and ruin the finish again.
While ceramic coating enhances gloss and provides protection, the difference when compared to PPF is significant. PPF excels at shielding your paintwork from rock chips, bird droppings, and potential damage plus some of the films include both hydroponic and self healing capabilities along with thinness of protection up to 10 millimeter.
A ceramic coating can certainly provide a brilliant shine and hydrophobic properties but lacks the ability to prevent paint damage caused by rocks and other impacts.
If your primary goal is to safeguard and maintain your paint, PPF stands out as the superior choice for your vehicle.
For the ultimate protection and the highest level of gloss, it’s ideal to opt for PPF on your vehicle with a ceramic coating applied on top. This combination delivers unparalleled protection and an exceptional shine.
The installation duration can vary significantly, ranging from a few hours to several days. The timeframe hinges on various factors, including your vehicle’s size (such as a large truck versus a compact sedan), the extent of coverage you require (e.g., just the hood or the entire vehicle), and the preparatory work needed before installation. For instance, applying PPF solely to the hood can typically be completed within a few hours, while wrapping the entire vehicle may take up to a week.
The cost of PPF varies based on several factors, including your vehicle’s condition, the type of PPF chosen, and the extent of coverage you desire. Prices can span from $1500 to $6,500 or even higher. For example, applying PPF solely to your hood differs significantly in cost compared to covering the hood, front bumper, fenders, and roof, as each scenario involves different requirements and pricing considerations.
Ultimately, the choice is a matter of personal preference. If you’re keen on maintaining the optimal condition of your paintwork, then opting for PPF is an excellent decision. Picture this scenario: you’re cruising along the highway, and rocks start pelting your vehicle. PPF is the only effective way to shield your vehicle from such hazards. If you recognize the value in this level of protection, then PPF is the right choice for you!
