Unlike waxes and sealants that require constant reapplication, PPF takes a long time before it needs any maintenance. As well, PPF has been designed to keep its form and elasticity after going through normal impacts. PPF is especially exceptional in preventing “swirl marks”, which are a result of poor washing or polishing of automobiles.

With PPF, damaging UV rays that would deteriorate the paint after prolonged exposure are blocked. This set of preemptive measures is beneficial for people in hotter climates where paint on vehicles deteriorates extremely fast.

Now, vehicle owners are able to change the color, texture, and finish of their cars while the best vinyl wrap brands let PPF take care of the physical damage to the vehicle's paint.
