Is PPF Available In A Matte Finish?

Paint protection film (PPF) is one of the best ways to protect the paint and finish on your car. It creates an extra layer of protection to prevent scratches and even minor dents from small objects. It is available in different finish options ranging from high-gloss to Matte and color PPF. Depending on which Paint Protection Film (PPF) finish you choose, you can both protect your car’s paint and enhance its aesthetic all in one.

Auto Film Specialists offers a high-quality PPF available in gloss, color, and matte finishes. When opting for matte PPF you can give your car the sleek satin or matte look you’re seeking. With Color PPF you can change the color of your vehicle without ever affecting your vehicle’s original paint. Gloss paint protection film, the original PPF, enhances vehicle gloss and shine while providing incredibly durable paint protection.

Which Type of PPF Is Best?

Deciding which PPF is right for you depends completely on your personal preferences. Whether you choose matte, color, or gloss PPF, they all come with the same great benefits and self-healing abilities.

UV Protection

If you’ve ever seen a 15-year-old car that was sold with a bright paint job, you quickly notice that the paint is noticeably darker than when it was sold by the dealer. That is because ultraviolet (UV) light makes paint fade over time. PPF filters UV light and reduces how much reaches the paint on your car. It effectively keeps your paint job from fading over time, making it look new for much longer.

Scratch Protection

Your car has a layered paint system where a primer, the paint, and a protective coating are layered on. Over time, scratches from dirt and debris can rub off the protective layer and damage your paint. While there are no noticeable scratches, it does make your car’s paint look faded and thin. PPF adds stronger protection from scratches and other abrasions that can take the paint off of your car.

Finish Adjustments

Since PPF becomes the outer layer of paint protection, it can also modify the way that your car looks. Many drivers use this as a way to enhance their existing paint job. For example, most sports cars have bright, glossy finishes. Finding one with a matte finish can be difficult since many models only have gloss finishes as an option. Applying matte PPF can fix this problem for you.

Alternatively, many performance-based models use less glossy finishes not to draw quite as much attention. If you want a glossy finish, you can add gloss PPF to help enhance gloss and shine while keeping your vehicle protected.

Finally, color PPF can change the color of your car without ever damaging the existing paint job. The biggest problem with color PPF is deciding on a color that you want to go with. With so many great color options to choose from deciding on the right color can be difficult. But the great thing about PPF is it can be removed and re-applied. Should you decide to change up the color of your ride again you won’t need to worry about getting a new paint job you can change the color of your PPF!
