We serve San Jose, Gilroy, Morgan Hill, and nearby cities across the Bay Area. Whether you’re protecting a new Tesla or restoring a classic, our custom-cut film solutions keep your car looking flawless.

What Is Clear Bra (Paint Protection Film)?
Paint Protection Film (PPF) is a self-healing, invisible urethane film applied to high-impact areas of your vehicle — like the hood, bumper, mirrors, and fenders. It acts as a second skin that deflects rocks, bugs, salt, and minor abrasions while preserving your paint finish.
Why Should You Install PPF on Your Vehicle?
San Jose drivers deal with:
- Heavy freeway traffic
- Flying debris from 101 and 280
- Long commutes under harsh sun
Here’s how PPF helps:
- 🛡️ Protects your paint from chips, scratches, and oxidation
- 💎 Preserves resale value — especially important for Teslas, luxury, or performance vehicles
- 💦 Easy to maintain — film resists stains, bug splatter, and water spots
- 🎯 Peace of mind every time you drive

Ceramic-Coated & Matte PPF Options Available
We offer a wide selection of PPF options near San Jose, including:
- Glossy clear PPF – for that wet, showroom shine
- Matte PPF – for a stealth look or full color wrap protection
- Ceramic-infused PPF – for added slickness, stain resistance, and water repellency
All installed with edge-wrapping and custom patterns for a factory-perfect finish.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How long does paint protection film last?
Most films last 5–12 years, depending on brand and usage. We include warranty-backed options.
Is PPF better than ceramic coating?
They serve different purposes. PPF offers physical impact protection; ceramic coating repels dirt, water, and UV. You can combine both.
Can I apply PPF to just part of my car?
Yes — popular packages include partial front, full front, or full body coverage. We customize to you and needs.
