š Holiday PPF Tips to Protect Your Paint This Winter šāØ
Holiday travel means more highway miles, salt-covered roads, and harsh winter elements that can damage your paint. Hereās what most drivers donāt know: winter is actually the season when paint takes the most damage.
ā 1. Road salt accelerates corrosion
Salt doesnāt just dirty your carāit can weaken your clear coat over time.
PPF forms a protective barrier so salt sits on the film, not the paint.
š Especially important if youāre driving through snowy or coastal areas.
šŖØ 2. Winter roads carry more loose gravel
When roads freeze, snow plows expose sand, gravel, and road debris.
These are what cause 90% of front-end rock chips during winter.
PPF absorbs impact and prevents permanent chips.
š„ 3. Self-healing helps after winter washing
Micro-scratches from brush car washes or wiping salt can self-heal with heat.
A warm garage, summer heat, or even hot water helps the film repair itself.
šø 4. Preserves resale value
The most expensive thing to repair on a vehicle isnāt the bodyāitās original paint.
Paint correction canāt bring back original factory paint once itās damaged.
PPF protects paint condition long-term, which helps keep resale value high.
š Holiday Expert Tip:
If your car is new (or someoneās getting one this Christmas), installing PPF right away is the BEST timeābefore any winter damage starts.
Drive more this seasonāwithout worrying about winter damage.
