Richmond’s suburban character means that drivers and their cars have to cope with a wide range of environments, from the open green space of Richmond Park to the busy roads of Twickenham, Kew and beyond. Not to mention the automotive ballet of the M25, the M3 and the other busy parts of the motorway network. While Richmond is a wonderful place to live, it can be tricky maintaining a car’s showroom condition, especially if it’s a classic, sports or luxury car. Narrow residential roads, street parking (with constant exposure to the elements) and high foot traffic make it difficult to keep restored, new or special paintwork unblemished.
When it comes to paint protection film, Richmond can rely on Auto Protek. Our advanced PPF provides a nearly invisible and ultra-durable barrier that shields your car’s surface from the daily threats of urban and suburban driving. Whether you're parking outside your favourite Teddington café or negotiating the tight lanes of Richmond Hill, auto paint protection film can keep your car pristine.
Paint Protection Film involves a clear, urethan-based film that is carefully applied to your vehicle’s painted surfaces. Originally developed to protect military helicopter blades from abrasion, the material has been adapted, refined and improved since the 1990s to serve the more luxurious, but no less important, purpose of keeping cars looking flawless.
PPF provides an invisible protective shield – a literal layer over your car’s original paintwork to guard against stone chips, scratches and abrasions from keys, buttons and jewellery, tree sap, bird droppings and road salt. And it prevents the swirl marks and ‘hologram’ effects that are the result of all but the most fastidious washing.
PPF has other attractive properties. It has a self-healing property, where light scratches and splits disappear when heated, such as by sunlight, engine heat or warm water. This retains a smooth surface and prevents the film lifting or allowing moisture to get underneath. PPF also makes cleaning and washing your car much easier, as substances like bird mess, tree sap and tar can’t adhere to the slick surface. These irritating contaminants, as well as dust, dirt and mud, just rinse off.
When properly and professionally installed and using high-quality materials, PPF can last a decade or more. When the time comes to remove or replace the film, PPF peels off cleanly and without affecting the paint underneath. It really is the ultimate way to preserve the appearance and the value of your car.
Even within the borough of Richmond, Richmond Hill is known for its blend of elegance and affluence. Naturally, that means that this is also an area brimmed with high-performance and luxury vehicles. With cars such as Aston Martins, BMWs, Porsches, Rolls-Royces and classic Jaguars on the roads, it’s no surprise that, when it comes to PPF, Richmond Hill is at the forefront.
PPF is also a sound decision for paint protection in Richmond for residents with less exclusive transport. Whether it’s a handy hatchback, a family SUV or a cherished convertible for the weekend, PPF ensures that it remains in excellent condition, without accumulating the inevitable wear and tear from years of driving. Bumps and scrapes in the Waitrose car park or flying road chips on the A316 are real threats, but preventable with PPF.
Auto Protek has been one of the UK’s leading paint protection film installers for nearly 2 years. With our premises on the estate of an 18th-century manor house near Yateley, we’re just a 45-minute drive down the M3 from Richmond. So, we can offer consultation, installation and aftercare for clients in and around Richmond.
We were the first PPF installer in the UK to be certified by Xpel, one of the world’s leading developers and producers of PPF material. So, we bring unrivalled experience and expertise to every customer. We can offer a range of PPF packages so you can select what suits your vehicle, your needs and your budget. You can protect just the most vulnerable parts of your car (the nose, lower front and sills), every inch or something in between. And we can also apply PPF to certain interior surfaces, touch screens and even your key fob.
Whatever we’re covering (and by how much), we only use the highest-quality materials. We work with multiple PPF manufacturers, as our experience has shown that different products work best in different applications. We have a bespoke installation booth for applying PPF, with the lighting and tools needed to get a flawless job without bubbles, ridges or visible edges. And our vast digital pattern database and precision cutter means that every piece of PPF will be the perfect fit for every part of your car.
