Installer technical FAQ

Will paint protection film prevent all stone chips on my car?

Installer education covering PPF construction, limitations, care, failure modes and customer expectation setting.

Some believe that MOD5 TopShield paint protection films offer complete protection against all stone chips. This assumption is incorrect; while TopShield films are designed to significantly mitigate damage from flying road debris, they do not guarantee the prevention of every single stone chip. The film acts as a durable barrier, absorbing the impact energy from most stones and preventing them from reaching and chipping the factory finish underneath. However, very large or sharp projectiles, especially at high speeds, can still possess enough force to potentially puncture or compromise the film. Understanding this allows for a more realistic assessment of the film's protective capabilities.
