What is Automotive Clear Bra, Paint Protection Film, PPF technology?
Paint Protection Film (a.k.a. PPF or Clear Bra) is the best impact protection technology to defend your vehicle’s surfaces from road debris, paint chips, door dings, or scratching.
PPF is a highly durable invisible urethane film which is installed directly onto vehicle surfaces.
When set and fully dried, Clear Bra stays in place with durable adhesive. If necessary it may be removed, without damaging the paint, at any time by a professional and reputable installer.
How Does Paint Protection Film (PPF or Clear Bra) Protect Vehicle Surfaces?
Think of Paint Protection Film (PPF) as your vehicle’s suit of body armor– specifically engineered for constant and durable impact surface protection.
PPF’s average minimum thickness is 8mils (~200 microns). This is between 4-5 times thicker than most factory automotive clear coat– which is paint’s built in protective layer.
Additionally, Clear bra’s substantial mass allows it to absorb and deflect the force of impacts to from most road debris strikes, protecting the surface. Even at speeds of 80mph or above.
Paint Protection Film is extremely flexible and molds well to surfaces, allowing the film to fit into and protect complex or tight body areas.
PPF’s unique construction and considerable thickness enable the film to absorb the force of heavier impacts, while deflecting the energy from smaller impacts. Either way, PPF takes the force of most impacts, protecting the vehicle surface.
Warranty Coverage for PPF/Clear Bra
PPF Manufacturer’s Warranty
Warranties for paint protection film are straight forward, essentially the film manufacturer guarantees that after installation the PPF, or clear bra, will stay in place and not yellow, fade, or crack over time.
Damage Not Covered by PPF Manufacturer Warranty:
- Puncture Damage in the Film
If a rock, piece of road debris, or any object impacts the surface and punctures the film. - Pressure Washer Damage
If a pressure washer is used with pressure exceeding 1600-2000psi. If the pressure washer tip is held closer than 18-24 inches from the film’s edge, it may lift the film’s adhesive or force water and air underneath the film, causing it to bubble. Both of these conditions compromise surface adhesion of paint protection film. - Accidental Damage
If a vehicle’s film is damaged, disturbed, shifted, or compromised due to physical impact. This includes any major crashes, minor fender benders, or situations where the installed ppf/clear bra is scraped or forcefully struck during parking or another means of impact.

Our PPF Installation Process | Consultation to Protected Vehicle
At Signature Detailing New Jersey all vehicle PPF Installations receive the following steps, to ensure long-lasting impact protection and quality finish:
PPF Consultation & Assessment
To ensure you find the best protection packages to fit your vehicle and your unique lifestyle, our process begins with detailed vehicle consultation with our owner Greg Gellas.
Greg will reach out to you to discuss your vehicle’s specific needs to recommend a customized PPF coverage package. Pricing Estimates and scheduling dates are only given after Greg’s personal vehicle consultation.
PPF Surface Preparation
To prepare a vehicle for PPF installation, our team thoroughly cleans and decontaminates all surfaces receiving paint protection film. This deep cleaning preparation ensures all vehicle surfaces are free of contamination that may interfere with the film’s adhesion and final appearance.
Cutting Film for Panels
To preserve vehicle paint and create a virtually invisible finish, we avoid cutting film on vehicles whenever possible, instead we cut the film for each vehicle’s model and trim level with a precision computerized tool called a plotter. Many shops use a “custom” or “bulk” installation process which installs the film, then cuts edges while on the vehicle. Our patterned install removes all potential for any cut marks on vehicle paint.
Film Installation to Vehicle Surfaces
After the paint protection film is cut, our expert level technicians carefully apply the selected coverage package to your vehicle.
Our PPF Installation Process prioritizes precise panel alignment and strong film adhesion. We wrap the film around all available edges (avoiding excess vehicle disassembly) and lay down the film for a clean bubble-free appearance, giving your vehicle a smooth, glossy, and sleek appearance.
PPF Quality Check (QC) Process
After the PPF is installed, we conduct thorough quality checks to ensure every PPF installation meets our high-quality standards. Our priority #1 is adhesion, especially of edges for long term durability and to avoid contamination. Secondly, we check the look of the installed film. Any imperfections of the film or installed are addressed at this stage of our process to ensure your vehicle is protected and looks its best long-term.
PPF Final Inspection & Vehicle Pick-up
Before returning your vehicle, we conduct a final inspection to ensure everything is ready to hit the road! During your vehicle pick-up appointment our team will walk you through PPF Aftercare & Maintenance steps, helping you best clean and maximize the longevity of your PPF.
Does PPF really self-heal scratches? And how does that help me?
Yes, PPF’s top layer contains technology that will heal with sun exposure, or hot water. This will cause the film to go back into form and topical scratches from rubbing, improper washing, or accidents will disappear.
The scratches that are eligible to heal are those that are light to moderate. Think leaning over a hood, wash “love marks”, or dragging a purse across a hood. Even some scratches with greater force may heal.
This helps your vehicle because the self-healing layer keep your vehicle’s color, gloss, and reflectivity looking its best condition for years.
Is Paint Protection Film (PPF) worth it (the cost) for my new car, truck, vehicle?

How long does PPF last before needing replacement? What's the Realistic Durability Lifespan of PPF (Clear Bra)?
Many factors influence Paint Protection Film durability including, but not limited to unique owner circumstances of: vehicle storage, usage habits, climate, maintenance, and driving style.
It is possible for a panel to receive a heavy impact from one large jagged object, or many objects (like sandblasting) and require early replacement before other panels.
If this occurs the film has done its job as an effective sacrificial barrier to shield vehicle surfaces.
Most Paint Protection Films offer 10 year durability ratings, and some ever offer lifetime warranties. These warranties guarantee the film will last and function for that defined time-span.
Experience has shown us that Paint Protection Film (PPF) on daily driven vehicles, is between 6-8 years.
10 years is definitely attainable, but it cannot be guaranteed. Most vehicles that obtain 10 year durability are garaged, well-cared for, and driven much less than average.
“Lifetime” PPF warranties, to us are as real as fairy-tale Leprechauns with a pot o’ gold at the end of the rainbow…
Should I get PPF or a Ceramic Coating to protect my vehicle surfaces?
Choosing between Paint Protection Film (PPF) and a Ceramic Coating to protect vehicle surfaces comes down one question:
Are you looking for Impact Protection (from rock chips, scratches, and door dings)?
or
Are you looking for Glossy, chemical protection, that will make your vehicle faster and easier to clean?
IF the answer is Impact Protection, then PPF is the solution because ceramic coatings cannot protect against the force of objects against vehicle surfaces.
To have the best of both worlds, add a ceramic coating over the panels installed PPF and to any remaining vehicle panels that did not receive paint protection film.
