The work
Five things we do, one bay at a time.
- 01Paint protection filmClear urethane film over the paint that takes the rock chips, the road rash and the bad car wash so the paint underneath does not. Self-healing in the sun.from $1,4001 to 5 days
- 02Color wrapsA full color change in cast film, removable, with door jambs where you want them. Gloss, satin or matte, and the factory paint stays underneath.from $5,2004 to 5 days
- 03Ceramic coatingA hard, slick layer over paint, film or wheels that makes washing easier and keeps the gloss. Paint correction first, so we do not seal in swirls.from $9501 to 2 days
- 04WheelsPowder coat in gloss black, satin graphite or bronze, done off the car while the rest of the work happens, then balanced and torqued back on.from $1,2002 days
- 05Window filmCeramic window film for heat, cut to Texas limits on the front side windows, or a clear heat film for the windshield-to-rear look of no tint at all.from $500Same day

In the bay
Six steps, and you get photos of each.
- 01
Inspect
Paint meter readings on every panel, photographed and shared before we start.
- 02
Decontaminate
Wash, iron remover and clay. Film only bonds to clean paint.
- 03
Correct
Swirls and haze polished out under the bay lights before anything is sealed.
- 04
Install
Film, wrap, coating, wheels and glass, in that order, in a closed, climate-held bay.
- 05
Cure
A night under the lamps so edges set before the car meets a Texas afternoon.
- 06
Deliver
A walk around under the same lights, a care card and a map of where the film is.

A sample review, written for this fictional studio
They showed me the configurator drawing on day one and the car on day five matched it. The paint readings before they started told me everything about how they work.
Questions
Before you book.
01Is the price on the configurator a quote?
It is a ballpark from sample prices. The quote follows an inspection, because paint condition, panel count and jambs change the work.
02Wrap or PPF first?
Either can go first. Most clients wrap for color and add clear film on the front where rocks hit. The configurator handles both.
03How dark can the windows go?
We cut front side windows to the Texas limit and tell you what that is when you book. Darker on the front sides is not something we install.
04Do you do warranty work for film you did not install?
We inspect it and tell you honestly what we see. Repairs on other installs are quoted separately.
05Can I wait while you work?
For window film, yes. For everything else the car stays in a closed bay overnight; we send photos at each step.
