Must-Know Facts About Car Paint Jobs
The price of a car paint job in Canada typically ranges from $450 to $10,000. How much you’ll end up paying ultimately depends on the type of paint quality you choose to go for. Either way, you can expect it to shake your wallet up a bit.
On average, car paint jobs are expected to last about 10 to 15 years. That is; if the vehicle is given proper care. Exposure to sunlight, elements, and acidic substances can shorten that life span, and you might see a decline in its appearance much sooner.
Since car paint jobs don’t come cheap, making it a point to protect this investment should be at the top of your vehicle’s pampering list. That’s where XPEL PPF comes into the picture to roll down the windows and wave “hello” as the ultimate solution.
About XPEL PPF
The open road can be tough—but XPEL PPF is tougher.
You’re bound to have heard about the greatness of paint protection film before—or its many other names (Clear Bra, Clear Mask, Clear Wrap, Stone Guard) have surely popped up in conversation between you and other car enthusiasts.
No matter what name it goes by, this type of car protection film has made a name for itself as an unparalleled solution to protect your vehicle from chips, scratches, and stains. You’ve just found the perfect defence for your vehicle’s brand-new paint job.
Currently the most reliable and most sought-after car protection film on the market, the XPEL brand continues to set the bar high for what it means to provide a shield that uplifts both aesthetics and functionality. And it’s right here within reach at The Auto Protectors.
Its Iconic Roots
Paint protection film has its roots in the skies–literally. This clear and durable urethane adhesive film was originally designed to protect helicopter blades from flying debris during landing and take-off. Back in the 1980s, PPF was used by racing teams to protect sponsor graphics on their race cars. And guess what–racers also leverage this incredible material to help hold the cars together during a crash.
Today, paint protection film has evolved into a god-send solution that preserves your vehicle’s surface like no other material can. It’s now thinner and stronger than ever.
How XPEL PPF Can Protect and Benefit Your Car’s Paint Job

Even the harshest environments are no match for XPEL PPF. Its cutting-edge technology provides a crystal clear, virtually invisible barrier that protects your car’s paint job from the wrath of the following:
- UV rays

Because its clear film protects without changing the design features or colours, you can wave goodbye to the days when shielding your car meant having to sacrifice its aesthetics. With superior optical clarity, you can keep your car looking like its glistening, brand-new self 24/7.
Self-Healing Properties

So whether you leave your vehicle out in the sun for a while or clean the area with warm water, you can count on XPEL PPF to bounce back in no time.
Can Contribute to the Overall Value of the Vehicle
