What is paint protection film?
Paint protection film is a transparent polyurethane film that adheres to the painted surface of vulnerable areas on your vehicle. It can be removed without any damage to your paint. Our film is made by Venture Tape Film and it is one of the most advanced protective coating products you can apply to your vehicle. Our new premium film, Clear Shield NY is far superior than anything on the market today.
There are some companies online offering "paint protection kits" for $19.99 or in this general price range. Be wary! Real, good quality paint protection film is not cheap and if you find a pre-cut kit with a price too low to be true, it probably is. Using cheap vinyl on your paint can actually ruin your paint job after just a few short months.
Are your paint protection kits difficult to install?
No!!! In fact we went through extra efforts to find the perfect product/film that would allow a first timer to have great success in installing our product. The patterns were designed with the do-it-yourselfer in mind without sacrificing coverage. Can you apply a sticker? Can you take 20 minutes to watch a video? If you answered YES then most likely you will have no troubles installing our films. We supply the tools needed, instructions, customer support and a great product so you can succeed with a perfect installation.
Are there any special tools needed to install the product?
Yes, but we supply them on orders over $75.00. We include 2 quality 32 oz. sprayers, rubber squeegee, hard card, razor type knife, and video installation instructions. This kit eliminates difficulties due to not using the proper tools.
How are your paint protection kits any different from your competitors?
Using the proper film is just half the battle. In our years of experience as a Venture Tape Film certified installer we feel that we offer the 2 best films on the market. But aside from using a great film you must have a proper fitting pattern. Don't be fooled by companies marketing Venture Tape Film film and very poor fitting patterns. In the end you will just be frustrated because it just won't fit correctly. As the saying goes "You get what you pay for!".
Is Headlamp film different than paint protection film?
Paint protection film is 8 mil in thickness and some companies feel thicker is better for headlamp kits and provide 20-50 mil thick kits. In our experience these materials are much more difficult to install and can actually trap in more heat. We use the same film for headlights that we use for paint protection. You won't be disappointed.
What area of my car will be covered?
Every year make and model are different. Generally the hood, fenders, side mirrors, bumpers are included, and other kits have the option to include headlights, rocker panels, door handles, door edge guards. Patterns are professionally designed based on each year, make and model. You get to pick which pieces you want. We don't require purchasing a complete kit like some of our competitors.
How do I install this kit myself?
On orders over $75.00 we include a very high quality CD and written instructions. We honestly feel this is a do it yourself product because our Clear Shield NY film is so easy to work with. The videos & written instructions will guide you through every aspect of the installation and if you still feel you can't do it then contact us and we will provide you with local installer information.
Do I need to do anything to maintain my vehicle once applied?
No, wash and wax as you normally would.
Can I reuse this material once opened?
No, Paint Protection film must be applied immediately upon being removed from its backing. The film can not be removed and reused once applied.
Will this product damage my paint?
No, of course not! This product is designed to help protect your paint, not damage it!.
Can it be removed?
Yes. It can be removed easily and will not damage the paint. To remove the film, you must heat the surface to approximately 120°F while working a corner of the film with your fingernail. Once you have enough of the material free from the surface to hold on to, slowly pull the film from the paint. Venture Tape Film adhesive remover can easily remove any residue if this occurs.
Will my kit fit perfectly, edge to edge?
Depending on the kit you are applying, some kits are purposely designed short so that you have to stretch them into place. The purpose of this type of design is to compensate for a contour on the vehicles surface or to allow room to pull out excess material around the edges that would otherwise be very difficult to lay down. The analogy that is most commonly used in talking about applying this material to a contoured surface is: "Imagine gift wrapping a basket ball, and all of the wrinkles that you would have in the wrapping paper. Not much you can do about it, right? Now imagine wrapping the same basketball in Saran Wrap instead. Stretching the Saran wrap allows it to take the shape of what you are stretching it over."
How long should I wait to apply your product if my car has been repainted?
You will need to talk to your body shop and see what they recommend. The time will vary depending on the type of paint the body shop used, and whether or not the paint was baked. In any case, the time that they say you should wait to wax the paint, is the same time you will need to wait to install our product. Generally this is 30 days.
