Element Graphics & Design logo

Paint protection film is a clear, durable layer that guards your vehicle’s most exposed surfaces against rock chips, road debris, and scratches. Add a ceramic coating for a hydrophobic, high-gloss finish that’s easier to keep clean.

Preserves Resale Value: Chip-free, factory-fresh paint keeps your vehicle worth more at trade-in or sale.

Nearly Invisible: Optically clear film keeps your factory finish on full display while it quietly takes the hits.

Built for Chicagoland Roads: Stands up to road salt, gravel, construction zones, and the winter debris that chews up unprotected paint.

Professional Installation: Our experienced installers precision-fit every piece for clean edges and a seamless, bubble-free finish.

Our Process

  • Step 1: Consultation

    We look over your vehicle, talk through how and where you drive, and recommend the coverage that fits your needs and budget.

  • Step 2: Surface Prep

    We thoroughly wash and decontaminate the paint so the film bonds to a clean, smooth surface.

  • Step 3: Installation

    Film is precision-cut and fitted to your vehicle’s panels, with edges wrapped wherever possible for a clean, bubble-free finish that’s nearly invisible.

  • Step 4: Cure & Care

    We walk you through the short curing period and simple care tips so your film stays clear and protective for years.

Ceramic Coating

  • Hydrophobic, Easy-Clean Finish

    A professional-grade ceramic coating bonds to your clear coat and forms a slick, hydrophobic layer. Water beads up and sheets off, taking dirt and road grime with it, so washes are faster and your vehicle stays cleaner longer.

  • UV Protection & Deep Gloss

    Ceramic coating helps shield your paint from UV rays that cause fading and oxidation, and adds a rich, glass-like shine that lasts far longer than traditional wax or sealants.

  • Chemical & Stain Resistance

    Bird droppings, tree sap, bug splatter, and winter road salt residue sit on top of the coating instead of etching into your clear coat, so they wipe away before they can do lasting damage.

  • Better Together With PPF

    Ceramic coating won’t stop rock chips; that’s what paint protection film is for. Pair PPF on your high-impact areas with a ceramic coating over the whole vehicle, film included, for complete protection that’s easy to maintain.
