Car paint protection film, otherwise known as PPF, is a layer of thin urethane film placed over your car’s paint to protect it from the elements, salts, oils, gravel, bird droppings, key marks, and rocks. for scratch repairs.
This layer of film gives your car a glossy, pristine, and shiny look. Covering your car with paint protection film reduces the need for scratch repairs. Additionally, the overall appearance and value of your car is maintained with the right paint protection film.

Ceramic coating for cars (also known as car paint protection) is a liquid polymer that bonds chemically with the car’s paint when applied to the surface. It forms a hydrophobic surface to protect the car’s paint.
On the other hand, paint protection film does not bond with the car’s paint but lies over it like an invisible skin. It is also thicker than ceramic coating. Here are some other differences between the two:
| Paint protection film | Ceramic coating | |
|---|---|---|
| Thickness | Thicker; Lies on top of vehicle like a layer of skin | Thinner; Bonds chemically with car’s paint |
| Ability to withstand environmental conditions | High | Mid |
| Removal of scratches | Self-healing properties: scratches will disappear over time with heat | Minor scratches may be removed with a thorough polish |
| Longevity | 5 - 7 years | 2 - 5 years |
| Cost | Higher | Lower than PPF |

PPF is ideal for car owners looking for additional protection for their car surfaces. It provides a “second skin” for your vehicle and has self-healing properties as scratches tend to fade off with some heat.
The only trade-off is the higher cost (as compared to ceramic coating).
