What Is Paint Protection Film (PPF or Clear Bra)?
Paint protection film is transparent urethane film applied to painted surfaces to shield them from chips, debris, stains and abrasion. APS installs SunTek Ultra for drivers who want protection without changing the factory finish. See how PPF fits into the APS Protection Ecosystem™.
What PPF Protects Against
- Gravel, road salt and debris on I-66 and Fairfax County Parkway.
- Road rash on bumpers, hoods, fenders, mirrors, headlights and rockers.
- Bug residue, bird droppings, tar and everyday abrasion.
Add ceramic coating in Fairfax for slickness, gloss and easier care.

Where PPF Came From
Aviation: urethane films protected rotor edges and aircraft surfaces.
Motorsport: racing teams protected vulnerable bodywork.
Modern vehicles: self-healing film and precision patterns provide a discreet fit.
What to Expect From APS
- Panels are washed, decontaminated and prepared.
- Pattern software and plotter cutting avoid routine knife work on paint.
- Edges are wrapped where the panel and pattern allow.
- APS transports the vehicle to the specialized off-site facility and remains your contact.
- The finished installation is reviewed with you at delivery.
Warranty and Aftercare
SunTek Ultra carries a 10-year manufacturer warranty against covered yellowing, cracking, bubbling, delamination and staining. APS promptly resolves installation concerns.
Allow 24–48 hours for settling and avoid pressure washing for seven days.
Precision at Every Stage
A professional installation depends on preparation, accurate patterns and controlled application.
APS selects and adjusts the appropriate pattern for each vehicle rather than treating every installation identically.
