Paint protection for your Tesla

Owners and installers widely describe Tesla paint as thin and soft compared with many other brands, and most Teslas leave the factory without PPF. We like to protect it before the first road-salt season.

Why Tesla paint needs protection early

Tesla paint is widely described by owners and installers as thin and soft compared with many other brands, and with no dealership PPF program, most cars leave the factory unprotected. Add Michigan's road salt, gravel shoulders and stop-and-go traffic on 96 and 275, and a new Model 3, Model Y, Model S, Model X or Cybertruck starts picking up rock chips and swirl marks fast.

Full Front coverage is the most common PPF package. Owners who want the paint untouched for the life of the car choose Full Body.

Tesla's panoramic glass roof and large windshield also let in more UV and heat than a typical sedan. Ceramic window tint cuts that down significantly. See our window tint films and shades for what is legal and what performs best.

Color PPF for Tesla

Color PPF for your Tesla

Color paint protection film changes your Tesla's color and protects the paint at the same time. Unlike vinyl, it's self-healing urethane that stops rock chips. Pick a STEK or Pure PPF color to preview it on a Cybertruck, and see the real samples at our shop before you choose.

Real protection

Color PPF is thick, self-healing urethane. It stops rock chips and light scratches the way clear film does. Vinyl doesn't.

Paint-like finish

STEK and Pure color films have a smooth, paint-like look and a self-healing top coat that makes washing easier. STEK DYNO carries a 10-year manufacturer warranty.

Removable later

Like clear PPF, color film can be removed later, and the factory paint underneath stays protected the whole time.

Frequently asked

Tesla questions

Do you offer color PPF for Teslas?

Yes. We install STEK DYNO color paint protection film, which changes your Tesla's color and protects the paint at the same time. It's self-healing, stops rock chips, and carries a 10-year manufacturer warranty. You can preview the colors on a Cybertruck in the color preview on this page and see real samples at our shop.

Is ceramic coating worth it if I'm going to PPF the car anyway?

PPF and ceramic coating solve different problems. PPF stops chips and cuts. Ceramic coating keeps whatever PPF leaves exposed, like the roof, glass and wheels, easier to clean and more resistant to etching from bird droppings and brake dust. Most owners do both.

How fast can you get a new Tesla in after delivery?

Tesla owners are often on a tight timeline between delivery and daily driving, so we prioritize new-delivery bookings. We usually turn quotes around the same day.
