PPF Redo & Reinstallation Richmond | Vancouver

PPF Redo & Paint Protection Correction in Vancouver, BC

Fix Poor PPF Installation. Restore Your Vehicle the Right Way.

Not all Paint Protection Film installations are created equal.

We’ve seen vehicles come in with:

  • Misaligned film

  • Lifting edges

  • Visible seams

  • Contamination trapped underneath

  • And in worst cases — paint damage from improper cutting

If your vehicle was not done right the first time, we specialize in complete PPF correction and restoration.

Porsche Cayman 718 – Full PPF Redo & Restoration

This Porsche Cayman came to us after a dealership-installed PPF and ceramic coating package did not meet expectations.

What happened:

  • Client expected full front end PPF + coating

  • Received partial front end PPF

  • Paid significantly more than market rate

  • Installation quality issues across multiple panels

Issues we identified:

  • Poor alignment and uneven edges

  • Film lifting and overhang

  • Improper trimming that resulted in paint cut marks

  • Ceramic coating high spots and uneven finish

⚠️ When PPF Goes Wrong

Poor installation doesn’t just look bad — it creates real problems:

  • ❌ Permanent paint damage

  • ❌ Film failure and peeling

  • ❌ Reduced resale value

  • ❌ Additional cost to redo everything

In this case, the damage required full repaint work before protection could even be reapplied.

Our Correction Process

We don’t patch problems — we fix them properly.

Step 1: Full Removal

All existing PPF is safely removed to assess the paint condition.

Step 2: Paint Restoration

If required, we coordinate repaint or correction to restore the surface.

Step 3: Paint Cure (Gas Out)

We allow proper curing time before reapplying protection.

Step 4: Full Body PPF Installation

  • Precision alignment

  • Clean edge tucking

  • Seam minimization

  • Proper panel coverage

Step 5: Ceramic Coating System

We apply coating on top of PPF for:

  • Hydrophobic performance

  • Enhanced gloss

  • Easier maintenance

The Reality (Cost of Doing It Twice)

Because the original installation was not done properly:

  • Project timeline extended to ~3 months

  • Required repaint + reinstallation

  • Significant additional cost despite partial reimbursement

If done correctly from the start:

  • ✔ Completed in ~5 days

  • ✔ No repaint required

  • ✔ Thousands saved
