PPF vs vinyl wrap
Both are films. PPF is thick and clear and made to take impacts. Vinyl wrap is thinner and made to change the color.
| PPF | Vinyl wrap | |
|---|---|---|
| Main job | Protect the paint | Change the look |
| Thickness | Thicker | Thinner |
| Stops rock chips | Yes | Only light ones |
| Colors | Clear, matte clear, some colors | Hundreds of colors and finishes |
| Self-healing | Most films | No |
Colored and printable TPU films blur the line. They give you a color or a printed design with PPF-level protection. We install printable TPU with a clear overlaminate.
