Rock Chips Stop Here.

Full Front starts at $2,799, Daily Defender at $3,799, and Full Vehicle at $7,500. Smaller jobs cost less: a front bumper on its own starts at $800. Those are starting points, not final numbers.

Vehicle size changes material cost and paint condition changes labour, so we confirm the price after looking at the car. The inspection is free and takes about twenty minutes.

Paint protection film is a multi-day job. Every edge is rolled and the film is given time to cure properly before you drive away. Rushing that step is the single most common reason cheaper installs fail early.

You'll get a realistic window when we quote, and we'll tell you if it changes. We'd rather have your vehicle an extra day than hand back work that lifts in a year.

Not from any normal distance. Valor is optically clear with no orange-peel haze, and we wrap edges past the face of the panel rather than stopping at it, so there's no visible line where the film ends.

Get close under the right light and look hard, and you can find a seam. That's true of every install on earth. The difference is how hard you have to look.

No, and we won't do it. Valor already has a ceramic-style topcoat built in, and putting a coating over new film hinders the self-healing layer you paid for.

Coating has its place on bare paint, glass and wheels. On fresh film it's an upsell that makes the product work worse.

LLumar Valor carries a 12-year manufacturer's limited warranty covering defects like yellowing, cracking and delamination. It's registered in your name rather than the shop's, so it follows the vehicle.

Our own installation warranty covers workmanship: lifting edges, contamination under the film, install defects.

It comes down to how you drive it. Highway miles means the front end takes nearly all the damage, so Full Front covers where the money goes.

If it's a collector car, something you intend to keep, or a color that's expensive to refinish, full coverage is the one that pays off. Bring it in and we'll tell you honestly which one your car actually needs.

Yes, when it's removed properly. Controlled heat softens the adhesive and the film comes off cleanly, leaving factory paint underneath, which is usually in better condition than the panels that were never covered.

Don't pull it off yourself. Cold film and a hard yank is how clear coat comes with it. Bring it to us or to another professional.

For light scratches and swirls, yes. The urethane layer reflows with heat, so most of them disappear in direct sun on a warm day. If you're impatient, warm water over the panel does it in a few minutes.

What it won't do is heal a scratch that went through the film. That's what the warranty and a replacement panel are for.

Probably not. Film is optically clear and sits tight to the surface, so it hides a good deal of light swirling and dullness on its own. Older paint often looks dramatically better with film over it.

What it won't hide is deep scratching, chips already in the paint, or clear coat that's failing, and it will lock those in permanently. Twenty minutes with the car under proper lighting tells us which category yours is in.

Call us first. Don't take it somewhere else and don't try to fix it yourself. Either can void your coverage.

Bring the vehicle in, we'll look at it in person, and if it's a manufacturer defect we handle the claim paperwork with LLumar on your behalf. That's part of what being a SelectPro dealer is for.

Yes.

• Clear Matte PPF will turn your glossy paint into a matte sheen, or even protect your matte painted vehicle. Hydrophobic and self-healing properties with a matte finish is a unique way to change your appearance with great protection benefits.
• Fashion Color PPF is a new and innovative process for color change, with PPF protection benefits. With different designs and patterns, this is a unique way to change the color of your hood, roof, or other accents.

Yes. We recommend frequent washing. We would prefer handwashing, but understand the need for a clean vehicle. Most car washes use pretty harsh chemicals, especially the shorter they are, that can diminish the film's properties. Any soft touch car wash will usually leave light scratching on the car and film, which will bake out in the sun in 20 to 30 minutes.

One major drawback is in areas where panels can't be wrapped: the high pressure can lift the film, which is not covered under warranty. If you plan on going through frequent car washes, we highly recommend a full vehicle wrap to protect your vehicle's paint to the fullest.
