3 signs your PPF needs replacing
Yellowing, lifting edges and scratches that no longer heal: how to tell your paint protection film is done.
1. It's turning yellow or cloudy
Quality TPU film stays clear for years, but age, heat and UV eventually discolour it. If white paint looks creamy or the film looks hazy, it's time.
2. The edges are lifting
Lifted edges collect dirt and water, and the film can start to peel. Small lifts can sometimes be fixed, ask the garage before it spreads.
3. Light scratches no longer heal
Self-healing films close light swirls with heat. If marks stay after a sunny day, the top coat is worn.
What to do
Have old film removed by a professional so the paint underneath isn't damaged, then compare film brands and warranties before re-applying.
