If you drive the A12, A13 or M25 daily, your front end is being sandblasted — stone chips are a when, not an if. Paint protection film is invisible, self-healing armour: light scratches disappear with heat, chips never reach the paint, and the car stays showroom-fresh underneath. It's the protection of choice for new cars, performance cars and anything you plan to keep or sell well.
What it costs: front-end packages (bumper, bonnet leading edge, wings, mirrors) from £800; extended front-end from around £1,500; full-vehicle coverage from £3,000. Exact pricing depends on the car — a free video call gets you a firm number.

Stone chips, road rash, light scratches, bird-lime etching and wash marring on the covered panels. Quality film self-heals light swirls with warmth.
They do different jobs: PPF is physical impact protection, ceramic is chemical/UV protection and easy cleaning. On high-value cars we often film the front and coat the rest — we'll advise honestly on the call.
Professionally installed quality film removes cleanly from factory paint — it protects your original paintwork rather than harming it.
