A clear layer with a very specific job.

LLumarAuthorizedInstaller

Paint protection film is one of the most effective ways to preserve your vehicle's original paint. Applied directly over painted surfaces, it provides a virtually invisible barrier against rock chips, scratches, road debris, and environmental wear.

Colorado's harsh winter roads, gravel-covered highways, intense summer sun, and mountain driving can take a toll on exposed paint. PPF helps protect the original finish without changing the appearance of your vehicle.

Our team exclusively installs LLumar Platinum Paint Protection Film for its durability, optical clarity, and self-healing properties. Using industry-leading CORE software, we cut precise patterns for each vehicle's specific make and model. Wherever possible, we wrap film around edges ,resulting in a clean, nearly seamless finish.

Choose the right PPF coverage.

From protecting the most vulnerable areas to full vehicle coverage, we offer a range of options to suit your needs.

Three services. Three different jobs.

Paint protection film, ceramic coating, and paint correction serve different purposes, but can work together to protect and maintain your vehicle.

Paint Protection Film

A physical barrier that shields factory paint from rock chips, scratches, and road debris.

Ceramic Coating

A nanoceramic coating chemically bonds with paint, creating a durable, hydrophobic layer that helps resist environmental contaminants and makes routine maintenance easier.

Paint Correction

Removes or reduces swirl marks, light scratches, and other paint imperfections to restore clarity and gloss.

A PPF project begins before film touches paint.

From initial consultation to the final inspection, every stage of the installation process plays a part in the finished result.

Keep your vehicle looking its best.

The care doesn't end when you pick up. We'll walk you through everything you need to know about maintaining your paint protection film, from the initial curing period to regular washing and long-term care.

01

Allow the film to cure.

Freshly installed PPF needs time to settle. We'll explain when it's safe to wash and what to expect as any remaining installation moisture dissipates.

02

Wash regularly

Use proper washing methods and avoid aggressive chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools. Remove dirt, bugs, and road contamination before they build up or etch your PPF.

03

Be mindful of film edges.

Avoid directing high-pressure water too close to exposed edges, where excessive force can lift the film.

04

Contact us with any concerns.

If you notice an edge lifting or something that doesn't look right, contact us before attempting to correct it yourself.

Paint Protection Film, plainly.

Direct answers about coverage, product, paint condition, and price.

What is paint protection film?

PPF is a transparent film installed on selected painted areas to help take wear from road debris and everyday exposure. Coverage and suitability depend on the vehicle.

Is paint protection film worth it?

If you want to keep your vehicle's paint in excellent condition, PPF is one of the most effective ways to prevent rock chips and everyday road damage. For drivers who regularly travel Colorado highways and mountain roads, protecting the front end can make a noticeable difference over time.

Is PPF the same as clear bra?

Yes. Clear bra is another name for paint protection film, especially for front-end coverage. At Boulder Auto Detail, clear bra and PPF refer to the same service.

Which PPF does Boulder Auto Detail install?

Boulder Auto Detail installs LLumar Platinum Paint Protection Film. It carries a 10-year manufacturer warranty under applicable LLumar terms; your estimate confirms the coverage and warranty documentation for your vehicle.

Which areas should I protect?

Partial Front, Full Front, Driver's Package, and Full Body are the four starting points. We confirm the right scope after reviewing your vehicle, driving, and paint condition.

Will PPF change the appearance of my paint?

LLumar Platinum PPF is designed to preserve your vehicle's original finish. Properly installed, the film is nearly invisible, although certain edges and transitions may still be visible.

Will PPF hide chips or scratches?

Not reliably. Clear film can leave existing defects visible, so paint condition should be reviewed before coverage is confirmed.

Does PPF heal itself?

LLumar Platinum PPF has a self-healing top coat that can reduce certain light surface marks. It will not repair chips, deep scratches, or damaged paint.

How much does PPF cost?

PPF pricing depends on the vehicle, selected panels, paint condition, and any prior repair work. Send the year, make, model, and coverage you are considering for a tailored estimate.
