Why Protect Your Tesla with PPF?

Anyone who’s purchased a Tesla understands the need to keep it looking clean and pristine, at least until the new car smell wears off. To keep the vehicle from losing its sparkling appearance, you can equip exterior paint coatings that protect the finish from unwanted chips and scratches.

No doubt about it, protecting & maintaining your Tesla’s appearance is an essential aspect of ownership.

PPF and ceramic coating are the two options available for all Tesla Models. Both protections are expensive somehow, leaving consumers to wonder if paint protection is essential?

To know that, we need to know more about Tesla PPF! So What is PPF for Tesla?

What is PPF?

PPF is a paint protection film manufactured by 3M or XPEL. It is a transparent coating that needs to be form-fitted to the Tesla’s exterior surface. Tesla refers to its application as a “no-brainer” because of the lifetime protection it provides against scratches and acts of vandalism.

Applying PPF to the vehicle’s exterior is a tedious and costly process that can run upwards of $9,000. Some drivers choose to wrap the entire Tesla car while others only have the PPF applied to high-use areas, such as the hood, mirrors, fenders, and bumpers, as these parts are more susceptible to damage and abrasion.

Teslas undoubtedly lose their shine due to normal wear and tear. Having an exterior coating applied at the time of purchase can help to keep that fresh paintwork appeal over time.

Commonly referred to as a “clear bra,” PPF works as a protective layer that helps to prevent fading and oxidization from the sun’s harmful rays. Tesla uses a thermoplastic urethane film perfect for Tesla exteriors because it is invisible and doesn’t distract from the car’s overall aesthetic.

PPF is self-healing, meaning that it can resist high impact and corrosion, healing itself before the damage reaches the vehicle. The film protects vehicles like the Tesla Model 3 or Model Y against acid rain, mineral deposits, bug residue, and chips from flying rocks. These hazards are absorbed into the film’s top layer of elastomeric polymers allowing it to change back to its natural shape.

PPF Coverage Options

Partial PPF

This primary coverage option typically includes the first 18-22″ of the vehicle hood & fenders, front bumper, mirror caps, or other additional impact areas that may be vital to cover.

Full Front PPF

The next step in Tesla PPF paint protection is what most installers call “Full Front.” At this level, the coverage has increased to include the entire hood, full fenders, and other high-impact areas.

Complete “Full Car” PPF

This is the pinnacle of full-body protection. The entire vehicle, including the roof, doors, pillars, and more, will receive edge-to-edge coverage with wrap and roll-over.
