Types of Paint Protection Film

Types of Paint Protection Film

Which paint protection film should I choose for my car? Paint Protection Film (PPF) is an optically clear film that is applied to the surface of a vehicle to protect it from scratches, minor dings, swirl marks and other types of damage. PPF is typically made from a thin, thermoplastic urethane material that is highly resistant to abrasion, impact, and UV rays. XPEL is a market leading manufacturer of PPF across the world and offers two different products: Ultimate Plus and Stealth films. Read on to discover the differences between these two paint protection films.
