What is paint protection film and is it worth it in Calgary?

Paint protection film (PPF) is a transparent, self-healing urethane film applied to your vehicle's painted surfaces. In Calgary, PPF is especially worth it due to highway gravel, road salt, and harsh winter conditions that cause rock chips and paint damage. PPF preserves your paint and your vehicle's resale value.

What is coloured PPF vs a wrap?

Coloured PPF combines the paint protection of clear PPF with a colour change effect — giving you both protection and style in one product. Unlike a vinyl wrap, coloured PPF also self-heals from minor scratches. Grafyte offers coloured PPF installation in Calgary in a wide range of finishes.

How long does ceramic coating last in Calgary's climate?

Can ceramic coating be applied over PPF?

Yes! Ceramic coating can be applied over paint protection film for the ultimate protection stack. The ceramic layer adds hydrophobic properties, making the PPF easier to clean while adding UV protection and gloss enhancement. Grafyte offers PPF + ceramic coating packages in Calgary.
