Question · Paint Protection Film
Is paint protection film worth it?
Front-end PPF on a new car, yes. Almost always. Full-vehicle PPF, only if you keep the car 5+ years and drive lots of highway. Otherwise the math does not add up.
This question is part of our Paint Protection Film service. See the full service overview, what's included, and how to schedule a walk-around.
WHEN THIS IS NOT THE RIGHT CALL
When to pick something else.
Lease return in 2 years: skip PPF. Trade in 3 years: front-end only. Daily driver you keep 5+ years: full front package makes sense.
FAQS
Common follow-up questions.
Will it pay back at resale?
Documented PPF with maintenance records adds 2-5 percent to a 3-5 year resale value. Hits about break-even on the front-only package over 4 years.
Front-only or full?
Front-only handles 95 percent of rock damage on daily drivers. Full coverage is for show cars and exotics where any chip is a problem.
Worth it on a used car?
Depends on the paint condition. A repainted car under PPF is asking for moisture problems. New paint or factory paint only.
