Your car is an investment and Melbourne roads can be unforgiving. Stone chips on the freeway, bug splatter on country runs, UV exposure through long summers: everyday driving takes a toll on your paintwork.
Paint Protection Film (PPF) is the most effective way to safeguard your vehicle's finish without changing how it looks.
At Wrapify, located at 23 Ramsay Street, Spotswood, our PPF specialists apply high-performance, self-healing film that shields your paint invisibly, preserving your car's appearance and resale value for years to come.
Paint Protection Film also known as PPF, clear bra, or clear film is a durable, thermoplastic urethane film applied directly to a vehicle's exterior surfaces. Originally developed for military use, modern PPF is engineered for everyday road conditions and is virtually undetectable once installed.
Unlike wax or sealants, PPF offers physical protection against:
Many clients also combine PPF with a ceramic coating for maximum protection. PPF handles the physical impacts while ceramic delivers a hydrophobic, high-gloss surface that's easier to maintain.
High-quality PPF contains a self-healing topcoat. Minor scratches and swirl marks disappear with exposure to heat either sunlight or warm water, returning the film's surface to a flawless state without any intervention.
PPF is optically clear and conforms precisely to your vehicle's curves and panel lines. Once installed, it is virtually undetectable, your car's original colour and gloss are preserved in full.
The film absorbs impact from road debris before it reaches your paintwork. Stone chips, one of the most common causes of paint damage in Melbourne driving conditions are stopped at the film surface.
Prolonged UV exposure causes paint to fade, yellow, or oxidise over time. PPF contains UV inhibitors that block damaging rays, keeping your finish looking showroom-fresh for longer.
A vehicle with well-maintained paintwork commands a significantly higher resale value. PPF is a proactive investment that pays dividends when it comes time to sell or trade in.
PPF's smooth, hydrophobic surface makes dirt, grime, and contaminants less likely to bond meaning your car stays cleaner between washes and is easier to detail.

Wrapify offers flexible PPF packages purpose-built for electric vehicles, protecting factory paintwork without disrupting range, sensors, or charging ports.

Our installers are experienced across the full range of EVs on Melbourne roads — Polestar, Kia EV, Hyundai Ioniq, BYD, and more.

Paint protection film (PPF) is a clear, durable film applied over your car’s paint. It stops stone chips, scratches and bug and bird damage before they reach the paint. High-quality PPF also self-heals: light scratches and swirl marks disappear with heat from the sun or warm water. Its smooth, hydrophobic surface makes your car easier to clean, too. If you want to keep your factory paint perfect and protect resale value, PPF is worth it. How PPF actually protects your car.
Full-vehicle PPF starts from $5,200 + GST for gloss film on a hatchback or Tesla, up to $12,000 + GST for coloured PPF on a supercar. Price depends on vehicle size, panel complexity and film type (gloss, satin or coloured). On a budget? Protect just the high-impact areas: bonnet, front bumper, guards and mirrors.

We’re a certified installer of Defcon Films, an Australian PPF brand made for local UV and road conditions. Defcon Films comes with a 10-year manufacturer warranty against yellowing, cracking and peeling. We back every install with our own workmanship guarantee.
Quality PPF lasts 5–10 years, depending on the film grade, how it’s maintained and how much sun and road exposure it gets. We recommend a periodic inspection to keep it in top condition.
Clear gloss PPF is virtually invisible once installed. If you want a new look, satin and matte PPF gives gloss paint a low-sheen finish, and coloured PPF changes your car’s colour completely. Both offer the same chip and scratch protection as clear film.
PPF is a physical film that stops stone chips and scratches. Ceramic coating is a liquid layer that adds gloss and repels water, but it offers no impact protection. Many owners apply ceramic coating over PPF for both benefits. Ceramic coating vs PPF.
Yes. The best time is before or soon after delivery, before the paint picks up its first chips. Any existing chips should be repaired first, because film won’t hide them. Dealership PPF is often outsourced and uses a different film or coverage, so compare before you sign. In-house vs dealership PPF.
Yes. We protect Teslas, BYDs, Polestars, Hyundai Ioniqs, Kia EVs and more, working carefully around sensors, cameras and charging ports. EV packages start from $5,200 + GST for a Tesla in gloss.
PPF doesn’t affect your manufacturer warranty, and it generally won’t affect your insurance. Let your insurer know so it’s noted on your policy. It’s also ideal for leased and novated cars, because it can be professionally removed without damaging the paint and the car goes back in original condition. PPF on a novated lease car.
