What is Paint Protection Film?

Paint Protection Film, also known as clear bra, clear film, or clear paint film, is a thermoplastic urethane film applied to the painted surfaces of a vehicle. This innovative film is self-healing, meaning it can reform itself after being scuffed or scratched, maintaining its clarity and protective qualities for over a decade. Initially developed for military use during the Vietnam War to protect helicopter rotor blades, PPF has evolved into a must-have for car enthusiasts and everyday drivers alike. Its adoption in the automotive industry has been widespread, with applications ranging from race cars to daily drivers, thanks to its durability and the protection it offers against the elements and road debris.
