Paint Protection Film
XPEL Paint Protection Film (PPF), also known as clear bra, is the ultimate solution to shield your vehicle from the rough conditions of New England roads. Nothing is more frustrating than finding a fresh chip or scratch on the paint of your prized car. Modern vehicles are painted with eco-friendly, water-based paints, which provide a stunning finish but are more vulnerable to rock chips and scratches. Elements like rocks, UV rays, bird droppings, and road salt can all damage your paint. PPF serves as the first line of defense, helping you protect your investment and maintain its pristine appearance for years to come.
