Are you concerned about the painted surface of your nice new car or your prized restored classic car? Or maybe the paint on the car has been scratched or has suffered from storm damage or UV exposure. There are so many environmental factors that can damage the painted surface of a vehicle. An expertly applied PPF or ceramic coating in Newtown Square, PA can protect the painted finish of your car and enhance the resale value of the vehicle when it comes time to sell.
PPF Coating for Cars, SUVs, and TrucksÂ
PPF, also known as Paint Protection Film, is a coating that protects your car, SUV, or truck from damage caused by the impact of stones or chips from other objects. It also offers some protection from certain chemicals. This protective layer is a thin urethane film that is barely visible once it has been properly applied by experienced detailers. This isn’t simply a protective barrier, it also has elastomeric polymers in the film that can heal over time to eliminate fine scratches and swirl marks.
The film or clear bra is precisely cut by a designated specialty computer to fit like a glove over the body surfaces of the vehicle. With this method, the film is easy to install in one of our state-of-the-art clean rooms that is free of contaminants and dust. Our highly-trained technicians work with only the best PPF products available to the auto industry. A professionally applied PPF coating can last for seven to ten years.
Quality Ceramic Coating for Vehicles
Ceramic coating is very different from manually applied waxes or sealants. This is a hardened silica-based glass barrier that doesn’t need to be reapplied repeatedly. Unlike wax, a ceramic coating is extremely durable and uniform. A skillfully applied ceramic coating will last between three and five years.
This type of coating layer protects your vehicle from environmental elements and contaminants that usually stick to an untreated painted surface. Rainwater will bead up and simply roll off the car and the surface will stay cleaner and dry more quickly. Other elements that your car is protected from include:
- Acid rain
- Bird droppings
- Dirt and dust
- Graffiti
- Insects
- Light scratches
- Oxidation
- Road rock salt
A ceramic coating is applied as a liquid. It is then cured using UV light or heat until it sets and hardens. This technique results in a continuous clear barrier that has a warm and glossy sheen. It is reminiscent of clear hard candy. As with our PPF coating, our skilled applicators work within clean environments to ensure an uncontaminated clear ceramic coating.
