Protection Value

XPEL Paint Protection Film is like a screen protector for the paint on your vehicle. It uses self-healing technology to protect the painted finish on your vehicle from things like chips, scratches, scrapes, or fading. Applied by our skilled installers with dozens of years of experience, PPF can help to keep your car looking like it just rolled off the dealership showroom floor. Even protecting from swirl marks made when cleaning, the heat-activated self-healing technology uses just the warmth of the sun to return the surface of your vehicle to a swirl-free shine

No More Repainting

Touchup paint can get expensive, especially if you need to paint correct the entire vehicle to even it out. Repainting a bumper can be even more expensive, averaging somewhere around $500 to do just the front bumper. Road debris isn’t picky about where it hits your vehicle either. The hood, fenders, rocker panels, and even the doors can be damaged by road debris without you even knowing. Paint protection film would mean your vehicle is protected from anything that would require you to repaint a panel, and you would never have to worry about it being an exact color match.

Boost That Trade In

Protecting your paint means your vehicle will stay in better shape for longer than without PPF. When it comes time to trade in that new car years down the line, your paint will be in substantially better shape than that of the same vehicle that endured years of road debris, scrubby car washes, and direct sunlight. A dealership will absolutely take this into consideration when offering you money on your trade in, which will put more money in your pocket or towards your new purchase.

Stay Looking Good

With anti-yellowing technology embedded in the film, along with stain resistance and Edge Seal technology to keep edges from lifting, your XPEL paint protection film will stay looking just as good 5 years down the line as it did the day it was installed. Backed by a 10-year warranty, XPEL guarantees that your film will stay pristine every single day.

So, is it worth it to get PPF? Absolutely. The up-front investment can save you so much money down the line in paint correction, touch up paint, potentially repainting panels, and ROI on your trade in. Never mind the satisfaction of knowing that your vehicle is protected from that “thunk” you just heard against your bumper on I-495. Even if something was to happen, the 10-year warranty has you covered.
