No One Does Paint Protection Film Like 3M


Invisible Protection to Keep Your Vehicle Looking Like New


Installed on new and used vehicles, 3M Paint Protection Film (PPF), also known as “clear bra”, is a nearly invisible film that is applied to the painted surfaces of your car (hood, fenders, bumpers, mirrors, etc.) to protect them from road debris such as rocks, bugs, salt, etc.

Made of a flexible, yet durable, urethane plastic, 3M Paint Protection Film was initially designed to protect helicopter blades from debris during the Vietnam War. Since then, it has been used by various OEM manufacturers, NASCAR teams, and car enthusiasts to protect painted automotive surfaces from road hash and other debris.
