Being a part of the automotive community for over a decade has given me the privilege to work on and ride in some beautiful, fast and expensive cars. However, being a Chevrolet technician for many years the Corvette will always have a soft spot in my heart. This 2014 Chevrolet Corvette needed some protection while adding some style to show off a little personality. This is where our Matte PPF (paint protection film) can be the answer you may be looking for!

Why choose PPF (clear bra) over Vinyl?

With todays vinyl options there is no denying that you can add some personality to your prized possession within a reasonable price point. So why would you choose a more expensive option? Simply put - Protection

Matte paint protection film is 2-3x thicker than Vinyl while providing a self healing top coat making the gloss paint color into a beautiful satin finish that is sure to turn heads while protecting you from more debris.

Our projects always begin with our thorough paint decontamination wash which consists of a foam pre soak, 2 bucket hand wash, iron/ fall out remover, tar remover and a nice clay bar session. This will ensure that we have a clean surface to start.

The vehicle is then brought in to be completely dried and inspected. To ensure that there are no waxes, sealants or other ceramic coatings on the surface we will perform a light polish to remove light defects and coatings. This allows a great surface for the film to bond to where a ceramic coating may cause the film to lift or not stick in general.

First up was to tint the windows with our ceramic window tint. This will add to our stealth look, add some privacy, block 99% of harmful UV rays and help keep our interior temps down for those long road trips in the Denver sun! Everything is cut in house on our plotter. With how soft glass is getting these days, we want to cut on the car as little as possible.

After the tint is all complete we can begin the installation of our Xpel Stealth paint protection film on all the gloss black painted surfaces. This is installed with modified patterns cut in house with the exception of the hood and rear bumper. This allows us to hide as much gloss as possible while leaving behind a reliable install.

After all the film has been installed, edges have been wrapped and emblems re installed - the film is then prepped for its ceramic coating. The coating will help with maintenance and give the film a nice rich finish to the satin surface. It is applied in a thick layer and worked in before wiping off.

Once the coating has cured this C7 Corvette is now protected and ready to enjoy the Colorado roads!
