Paint Protection Film is the modern way of protecting car's paint. It's like a cell phone protector screen, but goes on the panels of your car. It installs clear, and protects the car from physical damage.
Imagine driving down I87 from Albany to Saratoga Springs to Lake George, just out enjoying your car. Then smack, you hear the sound of a stone kicked up in the road from a truck much further ahead. Anxious to see if there's any damage, you pull over at the exit near Clifton Park and hop out of the car. Much to your dismay, a dreaded rock chip! You have two choices now, touch up paint (which never looks quite perfect) or a repaint of the panel (which can lead to all kinds of issues while your car is in the body shop).
Had you only gone to LEGENDARY Auto Salon, in Queensbury, NY and had a Paint Protection Film installation done professionally by their specialists. Paint protection film or PPF for short, would have stopped that stone from damaging the paint. It would have made maintaining the vehicle easier as well.
Can we install paint protection film after the damage has occured? Yes, but you will have to have the area touched up first, which won't look perfect, and future damage will be prevented.
