2. What Is PPF Coating and Why Is It Essential?
PPF coating (Paint Protection Film) is a transparent, self-healing layer applied over your car’s paint to shield it from:
- Scratches and swirl marks
- Stone chips and road debris
- Fading caused by UV rays
- Stains from tar, bird droppings, or acid rain
💡 Think of PPF as a body armor for your car’s paint — preserving its new look while maintaining its resale value.
