Matte Paint Protection Film (PPF) in Charlotte, NC PPF Paint Protection Film Tesla Model X
  • STEK DYNOMatte is a paint protection film (PPF) that offers a matte finish. Here are some key features and benefits:

    1. Matte Finish: It provides a stylish, matte appearance to the vehicle's paint, giving it a unique and sleek look.

    2. Protection: Like other PPFs, it protects the car's paint from scratches, rock chips, and other minor damages.

    3. Self-Healing: Many PPFs, including STEK DYNOMatte, have self-healing properties where minor scratches and swirls disappear with heat.

    4. Durability: It is designed to be durable and resistant to yellowing over time, maintaining its appearance and protective qualities.

    5. Hydrophobic Properties: This film often includes hydrophobic properties, making it easier to clean and resistant to water, dirt, and other contaminants.

  • Matte Paint Protection Film (PPF) significantly alters the sheen of a car, giving it a distinctive and modern look. Here’s how it changes the vehicle's appearance:

    1. Reduction of Gloss: The most noticeable change is the reduction of the glossy, reflective surface typically seen on cars with traditional clear coat finishes. Instead of a shiny and reflective look, the matte PPF creates a flat, non-reflective surface.

    2. Smooth, Uniform Finish: Matte PPF provides a smooth and consistent finish across the entire surface of the car. This uniformity can enhance the vehicle's lines and design features, making them more pronounced and eye-catching.

    3. Unique Texture: While the PPF itself is smooth to the touch, the visual texture appears different under various lighting conditions. Matte surfaces diffuse light rather than reflecting it directly, which can make the car appear more dynamic and change subtly as the light conditions change.

    4. Concealment of Imperfections: Matte finishes can also help to conceal minor imperfections and swirls that are often more visible on glossy surfaces. This can make the car appear cleaner and well-maintained over time.

    5. Modern and Custom Look: Applying matte PPF can give your car a modern and custom look. Matte finishes are often associated with high-end and custom vehicles, adding a touch of exclusivity and luxury to the car's appearance.

  • You may have heard lately about "Colored PPF" which refers to Colored Paint Protection Film.

Paint Corrections & Ceramic Coatings in Charlotte, NC & Indian Trail, NC

  • 3-Step Paint Correction:

    Compounding (Heavy Correction) -> Removing deeper scratches, swirl marks, and other significant paint imperfections. (Sometimes wet sanding is required)

    Finishing (Light Polishing): The final stage involves using a finishing polish with a soft pad to further refine the paint, achieving a high level of gloss and clarity. This step enhances the overall appearance of the paint.

    Ideal for: Vehicles with extensive paint imperfections, deep scratches, and swirl marks. Provides a comprehensive restoration for a flawless finish.

    2-Step Paint Correction:

    Compounding (Heavy Correction): Similar to the 3-step process, the first stage involves using a cutting compound to address deeper scratches and significant imperfections.

Wetsanding 2000 grit on this Cayman GT4

Orange Peel/Texture Removal

  • "Orange peel" in car paint refers to a texture or finish on the painted surface that resembles the skin of an orange. It is characterized by a slightly bumpy or uneven surface texture, similar to the dimpled appearance of an orange peel. This texture is typically resulted from various factors during the painting process, incorrect paint viscosity, or issues with the drying and curing process. Orange peel can affect the overall appearance of the paint job, even from factory and achieving a smooth finish often requires careful wetsanding to level out the clear to make it shine like a mirror again

  • Wet sanding is a technique in automotive detailing to smooth imperfections and remove texture in car paint. Appropriate grit sandpaper, along with progressing to finer grits will refine the surface. Polishing compound is then used with an appropriate pad to restore shine. Caution is advised, and if unsure, seek a professional like us help to avoid potential paint damage.
