Benefits of PPF
Paint Protection Film protects your paintwork from stone chips, minor scuffs and light scratches & scrapes, protecting the finish against defects, especially those inadvertently picked up from poor washing techniques.
PPF gives a depth of shine normally only seen in a showroom.
PPF is also self healing, With the application of hot tap water, or even the sun, scuffs and light scratches disappear instantly.
PPF film panels are relatively easy and quick to replace. Meaning your vehicle is only off the road for a couple of hours compared to a respray.
Which PPF coverage do i choose?
Traditionally PPF is installed on wings, leading edges of the bonnet / forward panels of the car. Today, such is the quality of modern PPF that it really does make sense to protect the whole car, however we offer a flexible range of PPF coverage to suit your budget.
With our PPF 4 full custom service we can cover ANY painted, carbon fibre or smooth finished surface of your vehicle, including interior trims.
Our film comes in matte, as well as traditional high-gloss options, to cover expensive matte paints and carbon fibre paints.
Aftercare
Installation of the film is a wet process - we advise to not wash the car for the first 7 days afterwards, the moisture in between the film and paint is still evaporating during this time and using shampoos can affect this and the adhesive qualities around the edges of each panel.
Once the film has cured, you are able to wash the car as normal (if possible use the twin bucket method and a lambswool wash mitt), if using a pressure washer ensure that you keep the spray lance at least 3 feet away from the surface of the film especially the edges as the pressure may lift the edge of the film, we recommend a pH neutral shampoo.
If you get bug splatter or bird dropping you should still remove this as soon as possible as you would with bare paint, while the PPF adds protection the top layer has a similar make up to your cars own lacquer and will also be marked from the acids etching into it.
If you like to polish or wax your car you can continue to do this on PPF covered panels although more careful selection of the products must be taken. Polishes that are resin, solvent based or abrasive can mark the film leaving a haze or damaging the self healing abilities and must be avoided. A good quality natural wax like Carnauba can be used.
Surface scratches and swirl marks in the film will heal over a period of time, if you needed to accelerate the process then pour warm water (not boiling) over the desired area, that will help the upper most layer of the film to morph back into its original state.
Warranty
We warrant your film against yellowing, crackling or lifting and will replace any area of film that is on inspection deemed to not meet this criteria during the course of its warranty (from date of purchase).
Warranty does not cover damage to PPF caused by accidents, collisions, intentional misuse, ordinary wear or damage caused by products or cleaners not recommended for use on PPF.

I booked my first valet with this company yesterday, and I couldn’t be happier with the service!
Gabriel was very pleasant and attentive, and I really appreciated his attention to details, special care and patience to make sure that my car was in the best condition possible. My car came out in showroom condition!
Those guys are clearly very passionate about looking after cars, and this is exactly what I was looking for!
Looking forward to my next valet.

An excellent experience from start to finish. After spilling milk on my upholstered back seat, I had visions of driving with my head out the window as it turned sour. So I looked into getting the car valeted.
Luckily I found Mike, who reassured me that they'd got rid of the smell of milk and worse in cars.
I'm pleased to report that he and Gabriel did a first-rate job. The car is sparkling inside and out. And, more importantly, it smells luscious.
Great guys, great job.

Mike and his team did an incredible job detailing and repairing the scratches and stone chips on my Macan. I was absolutely speechless when I saw the finish, it looks better than showroom condition! I will definitely use their service again, and would very highly recommend B.A.V for their amazing work, professionalism and friendliness.

I used their services twice and it’s definitely worth the money. Their work is impeccable with an amazing attention to detail. They are also fair: because my car was in a better condition than anticipated, they needed less time to complete the job, and did not need to use all their cleaning products (e.g leather conditioning); consequently they gave me a partial refund - I did not have to ask for anything.
