CARPRO's self-healing Paint Protection Film at 0.2 mm thickness is designed to provide transparent and durable mechanical protection against scratches, stone chips and external damage. The film is applied directly to the painted surface and helps preserve the original paint in its original condition over an extended period.

The gloss finish ensures that the vehicle's shine and depth are maintained without any visible change to its appearance. Thanks to the self-healing property, light surface scratches recover upon contact with heat, such as sunlight or warm water.

The film is suited to professional application at detailing studios and reconditioning workshops, but can also be used by experienced enthusiast users with the correct tools and technique. See more paint protection films and surface protection products in our range.

What is self-healing Paint Protection Film and why choose it?

Self-healing Paint Protection Film (PPF) is a transparent polyurethane-based layer applied to the painted surface to protect against mechanical damage. Unlike Ceramic Coating or Sealant, a physical film provides direct impact-absorbing and scratch-resistant protection that is not solely chemical in nature.

CARPRO's variant at 0.2 mm thickness with a gloss finish is a well-considered choice for vehicles where the appearance and integrity of the paintwork are a priority. The self-healing technology means that light marks and scratches in the film's surface disappear upon heating, reducing the need for polishing and maintenance over time.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Does CARPRO Self-Healing Paint Protection Film 0.2mm Gloss work on all paint types?

Yes, CARPRO's self-healing Paint Protection Film at 0.2 mm is designed for application on painted surfaces and is compatible with most factory paint finishes and freshly painted surfaces. It is recommended that the painted surface is clean, degreased and free from defects prior to application in order to ensure good adhesion and an optimum end result. If in doubt, a small test area should be treated first.

What thickness does CARPRO's protection film have and what does the self-healing property mean?

CARPRO's protection film has a thickness of 0.2 mm, which provides mechanical protection against light scratches, stone chips and dirt. The self-healing property means that light marks in the film's surface recover upon contact with heat, such as sunlight or warm water, without the film needing to be replaced. This helps keep the surface in good condition over a longer period. See also more CARPRO products for paint protection and detailing in our range.

What distinguishes CARPRO Self-Healing Paint Protection Film 0.2mm from other paint protection products such as Ceramic Coating?

CARPRO's self-healing Paint Protection Film is a physical layer of 0.2 mm polyurethane-based material applied on top of the paint, providing direct mechanical protection against scratches and stone chips. Ceramic Coating, by contrast, is a chemical layer that bonds to the painted surface and primarily provides chemical protection, water repellency and gloss, but lacks the impact-absorbing and self-healing capability that a physical film offers. The two methods can be combined for comprehensive paint protection, with the protection film applied first and the Coating on top.
