Is Paint Protection Film (PPF) Worth It for Your New Car?

Intro

If you’ve just bought a new car, congrats. Now it’s time to protect it properly. At Longford Auto Art, we get asked all the time: "Is PPF worth it for a new car?" Here’s our honest answer.

Why New Cars Need PPF

• Protects your factory paint from chips, scratches, swirl marks

• Maintains resale value by keeping the bodywork immaculate

• Invisible protection - no one can see it’s there

High-Impact Zones to Protect

If you’re not going for full-body coverage, we recommend protecting:

• Front bumper

• Bonnet

• Side mirrors

• Arches

• Door edges

Real Cost vs Long-Term Value

Yes, PPF has an upfront cost, but it’s far cheaper than:

• Respraying stone-chipped panels

• Losing value at resale

• Getting paint correction every few months

Final Word - Is PPF worth it?

If you care about your car’s condition, plan to keep it for a few years, or want a clean finish when you sell, PPF is worth every penny.
