Warranty Policy
Paint Protection Films, commonly known as PPF, are transparent or colored films applied to the exterior surfaces of vehicles to protect them from scratches, rock chips, and other minor damages. Manufacturers and installers often provide warranty coverage for these films to assure customers of the product’s quality and performance.
Warranty Duration
The duration of a PPF warranty can vary depending on the manufacturer and installer. It typically ranges from 5 to 10 years, with some premium films offering longer warranties.
Coverage
The warranty generally covers defects in materials and workmanship, which can result in bubbling, peeling, or yellowing of the film during normal use.
Installation Warranty
Some warranties also include coverage for the installation process. This means that if the film is installed improperly, leading to issues like bubbling or adhesive failure, the installer will reapply or replace the film free of charge.
Limitations
Most warranties have certain limitations or exclusions. These may include damages caused by accidents, improper maintenance, misuse, or neglect. Additionally, the warranty might not cover damages caused by environmental factors, harsh chemicals, or other external influences.
Transferability
Check whether the warranty is transferable to a new owner if you plan to sell the vehicle before the warranty period ends. Some warranties can be transferred, which can add value to the vehicle.
Maintenance Requirements
Warranty coverage often requires proper maintenance of the PPF. This might include avoiding automated car washes with brushes, using specific cleaning products, or getting the film inspected regularly.
Warranty Claims
In case you encounter any issues covered by the warranty, contact the manufacturer or the authorized installer to initiate a warranty claim. They will guide you through the process and determine whether the problem is eligible for coverage.
Always read and understand the specific terms and conditions of the warranty provided by the PPF manufacturer and installer. By doing so, you can ensure that your investment in Paint Protection Films is protected and you have peace of mind knowing your vehicle’s paint is safeguarded.
