How we apply the film

Invisible protection for the paint, lasting years.

  1. 01

    Preparing the surface

    We wash and degrease the paint so that the film sticks perfectly.

  2. 02

    Applying the film

    We cover each panel with a single piece of film, shaping it to the contours.

  3. 03

    Finishing

    We press down the edges and dry them, giving invisible, lasting protection.

What the service involves

Films are currently the most effective paint protection in the world. Innovative technology protects the paint coat to the maximum while remaining practically invisible.

  • Protection against chips, sandblasting and scratches
  • Resistance to chemicals and bird droppings
  • It absorbs impacts - more effectively than a ceramic coating
  • A practically invisible layer
  • Packages: front, front plus, full front

What is the difference between ceramic coatings and PPF film?

They are two completely different products - here is the difference.

First of all, it must be stressed that these are two completely different products which cannot be put side by side, let alone compared. Unfortunately, because similar names are used for what they do - "paint protection", "protective coating" - we have to explain this.

The essential difference is that a ceramic coating does not protect a car's paint against mechanical damage such as scratches, car park scuffs and stone chips picked up while driving. PPF film, unlike a ceramic coating, absorbs impacts - and so genuinely protects the car's paint.

Wrapping packages

The panels covered by each package are marked in red.

Front package - the bumper and headlights wrapped in PPF film

Front package

Front bumper + headlights

Protection for the parts of the body most prone to damage. These are the panels most exposed to chips from stones thrown up by other cars' wheels, as well as to etching from insects and road salt. That kind of damage cannot be repaired without repainting.

Full Front Plus package - the whole front of the car wrapped in PPF film

Full Front Plus package

Bumper, headlights, the whole bonnet, the whole wings, mirrors, door handle recesses, pillars, boot loading edge

The most extensive and advanced package, meeting the expectations of demanding customers - not only for its practical value but also for its looks. Compared with the Front Plus package, every panel is wrapped in full, which does away with the cut line of the film.

Wrapping in PPF film costs PLN 750 net per 1 m². Parts such as mirrors, lights and door edges are quoted individually.

Additional parts to wrap

Besides the packages, we also protect individual parts with film.

Invisible paint protection

The film isolates the paint coat from the outside world. Wrapped panels are protected against chipping, sandblasting, scratching and the harmful effects of chemicals and bird droppings. Our film can also save your paint when another car scrapes it in a car park - right up to the point where the structure of the body itself is damaged.

Questions and answers

Pick a topic - we will expand the questions we get most often from customers.

About this serviceSpecifically about what this page describes. 4 questions
What is PPF film?

It is a transparent, very tough protective film that shields the paint from chips, scratches and minor damage.

Is the film visible?

No - correctly applied PPF film is practically invisible and does not change how the car looks.

Which panels are worth wrapping?

Most often the most exposed parts: the bonnet, bumper, sills, mirrors and pillars - the whole car can be wrapped too.

How long does PPF film last?

A good-quality film protects the paint for many years, and some types self-heal minor scratches.

Price and appointmentWhat it costs, how we calculate it and when there is a slot. 5 questions
How much does a repair cost and what does the price depend on?

A PDR repair starts from PLN 100 net. The final amount depends on the size and depth of the damage, its place on the body and how much work it takes to reach the panel from behind. Two dents that look alike can differ twofold in price precisely because of access.

Are the inspection and the quote paid for?

No. Looking the car over under the lamp, counting the dents and giving a price are free and commit you to nothing. The quote you get is binding - we do not change it during the work.

Will you give a price over the phone?

We can give a range, but a reliable quote means seeing the damage. The quickest way is to send two photos: the whole panel and a close-up at an angle, in side light. On that basis we can usually say whether a paintless repair is possible.

How soon will I get an appointment?

For small repairs usually within a few days, often the same week. After a bigger hailstorm in Warsaw the queue can be longer - then it is worth calling straight away rather than putting the decision off.

Can I pay by card and get an invoice?

Yes. We accept card, cash and bank transfer, and we issue the invoice to a company or to a private person - just say so when you hand the car over.

The visit to the workshopHow the car is taken in and how long it takes. 5 questions
Where are you and do I need an appointment?

We work in Warsaw. Booking is advisable - that way the bay and the lighting are free for your slot and the repair starts as soon as you arrive. For the inspection alone you can drop in after calling ahead.

How long does a repair take and can I wait on site?

Most small repairs take from 30 minutes to 3 hours and you can wait for them. The car is left for longer only for a larger job, for example after hail or when the headliner has to come out.

Does the car need preparing before the visit?

It is enough for the damaged spot to be clean - a layer of dust makes assessment under the lamp harder. Nothing needs dismantling and no extra documents are needed.

What happens if it turns out on the spot that the repair is impossible?

We say so straight away, before starting work, and charge nothing. We usually then suggest what scope of work would be needed and what it really costs.

Do you come out to the customer?

For simple repairs it is possible. Harder finishing work comes out better in the workshop, because there we have constant, controlled light - and that is what decides whether the repair will be invisible.

Guarantee and paperworkHow lasting the repair is, invoices and settling a claim. 5 questions
What guarantee do you give on a repair?

A properly worked panel does not go back to its dented shape - the metal is brought back to the state it was in before the damage, not masked. We show the result at handover under the lamp and in daylight; if anything raises doubts, we correct it as part of the repair.

Will the repair be visible when I sell the car?

No. With the PDR method the paint is neither sanded nor reapplied, so a paint thickness gauge shows the factory value. Nor is any entry created in the repair history.

Do you settle the repair with the insurer?

Yes. We prepare damage documentation and an invoice in the form the insurer accepts. For hail claims, the dent map from the workshop is the basis of the assessor's valuation.

Will I get before and after photos?

Yes, on request. We take the photos from the same position and in the same light, so what you see is the real difference, not an effect of the framing.

Do you work with companies and fleets?

Yes. We serve car dealers, rental firms and fleets - with an invoice, agreed rates and the option of taking in several cars on one date.
