PPF, or Paint Protection Film, is a clear, protective film that is applied to the exterior of a car to protect the paint from scratches, chips, and other types of damage. Whether or not PPF is a need or luxury for cars depends on the individual’s perspective and usage of the car.
From one perspective, PPF could be considered a luxury for cars, as it is an added expense that is not necessary for the basic functioning of the car. However, for people who are concerned about maintaining the appearance of their car, or driving car in busy city roads where motor bike handles related damages are major threat to the paint and people who drive their car in areas with a lot of road debris, PPF can be seen as a necessary investment to protect the paint and maintain the car’s value.
In today’s scenario where car prices have gone sky high, any paint repaired panel can reduce the market value of the vehicle ranging from PKR 100k to PKR 1,000k depending upon the value of vehicle.
In short, it depends on the purpose of the car and how much you value the appearance of your car, PPF can be seen as a need or luxury. If you’re concerned about the long-term maintenance and appearance of your car, PPF may be a worthwhile investment.
BENEFITS OF PPF
1. Protection against scratches and chips:
PPF acts as a barrier between the paint and the environment, protecting the car from scratches and chips caused by road debris, bugs, and other types of impact.
2. Protection against UV rays:
PPF also helps protect the car’s paint from fading and discoloration caused by the sun’s UV rays.
3. Self-healing properties:
Some PPF products have self-healing properties that allow minor scratches to disappear on their own over time.
4. Easy to maintain:
PPF is relatively easy to clean and maintain, and it can be waxed and polished like the rest of the car’s paint.
5. Clear, invisible finish:
PPF is virtually invisible once it is applied to the car, so it does not change the appearance of the car.
6. Cost-effective:
PPF can be a cost-effective way to protect the car’s paint, as it is cheaper to replace a piece of PPF than to repaint a whole car.
7. Versatile:
PPF can be applied to almost any surface on a car, including the hood, fenders, mirrors, and door edges, providing comprehensive protection.
8. Customizable:
PPF can be cut to fit any shape or size, making it customizable for any car model.
