3 Reasons to Get PPF On Your Ride

Car enthusiasts around the globe agree that paint protection film is one of the best investments that car owners can make. Used to seal in custom paint jobs, protect against admiring handprints, and thwart off trauma caused by wayward pebbles and malicious paint scuffs, PPF combined with ceramic coating is the gold standard in protective vehicle upgrades. If you’re serious about maintaining the curb appeal and resale value of your car, getting PPF installed is a no-brainer. Join us in today’s post as our PPF technicians let you in on the top three reasons you should get PPF installed on your ride.

At Jet Black Tint and Glass, we’ve installed high-quality PPF on thousands of cars over the last few years, and combined with our complimentary window tint services, your car can look great for as long as you own it. 

1. Maintains the Look of Your Car

Paint protection film (PPF) makes it easy to keep your ride looking the same as it did the day you signed the sale’s paperwork. A transparent shield applied over your car’s paint protects against fading, scratches, and chemical damage that would otherwise blemish your car’s otherwise pristine paint. PPF is hydrophobic, meaning it doesn’t allow moisture to build up and making it easier to wash and maintain. Paint protection film is widely appreciated for being low-maintenance and holding it’s sheen when it hasn’t been tended to in a while. When you envelop your ride with high-quality paint protection film, it’ll look newer for longer. For added shine and protection, paint protection film works seamlessly with ceramic coating to prevent anything from resting on your car and keeping a highly polished shine despite external conditions.

At Jet Black Tint and Glass in San Diego, we install Global® Paint Protection Film on Coastal California cars every day. Our clients love it because it shields their cars from the constant humidity and relentless sun that makes the Bay Area home to so many people and vegetation. Year after year luxury cars can cruise the coastal roadways in cars that shine. Keep your car looking new by booking an appointment at your San Diego JBT today!

2. Adds Resale Value

From the moment you drive your car off the lot, the value begins to depreciate. For most luxury car owners, this isn’t a significant problem because, with routine maintenance and some TLC, the resale value remains fairly high, depending on the make and model of the vehicle. To keep the value as high as possible, keeping it in mind when you invest in any long-term products or services is a wise idea. Professionally installed paint protection film helps to maintain your overall resale value. For one, it helps retain the dealership condition which will get you a higher offer when you go to sell or trade-in your current ride for a new one. PPF prevents scratches, fading, and corrosion, allowing your ride to remain in a like-new condition much longer. PPF will prevent paint and body repairs over the life of the car and keep the value higher for longer.

At your Coastal California Jet Black Tint and Glass, we offer PPF packages that make sense for boosting curb appeal now and enhancing resale value in the long-run. Combine paint protection film with any of our other great auto enhancement services including window tint, smoked taillights, tinted headlights, chrome delete, ceramic coating, auto detailing, or new floor mats for a car you’ll never want to sell but everyone will want to buy!

3. Saves You Money

Many car owners see the initial cost of paint protection film installation and scoff, but, it should be noted that the immediate return on investment is so high that over the life of the vehicle, paint protection film actually pays for itself and then some! The primary reason for investing in PPF to begin with is that your vehicle is exposed to hazards and wear and tear from normal use on California roadways, and as the car enthusiast you are, you’d rather it not look like it has taken a beating from the sand, gravel, pollution, insects, bird droppings, and intense sun rays that call California home. The average spot paint repair that results from scratches, dings, and blemishes costs car owners between $250 and $500, whereas luxury cars are at the top end. Body rust smoothing and paint repairs rack up a tab between $3,000 and $5,000.  And, complete paint jobs for cars that experience uneven sun fading can cost upwards of $8,000 to $15,000. The upfront cost of the paint protection film is less than the bill from rust repair, and PPF prevents rust formation, sun fading, scratches, and more. Investing in PPF for your ride is a long-term investment with one of the highest ROIs you can get in the auto modification industry.. 

At Jet Black Tiint and Glass in San Diego, our professionally installed Global® Paint Protection Film comes with a 10-year product warranty and a lifetime craftsmanship guarantee that will likely outlast your ownership of the vehicle.
