MCLAREN – FIXING A POOR PPF INSTALLATION WITH EXPERT CARE
A client recently brought us a MCLAREN that had previously received a Paint Protection Film (PPF) installation from an amateur shop. Unfortunately, the results were far from acceptable for a vehicle of this caliber, and the risks associated with poor installation were already becoming clear.
THE RISKS OF AMATEUR SHOPS & AT-HOME INSTALLATIONS
* VISIBLE SEAMS & LIFTED EDGES – The prior shop relied on computer-cut templates, leaving noticeable seams and exposed paint edges. This not only looked unprofessional but also created entry points for dirt, moisture, and peeling.
* INADEQUATE COVERAGE – Large areas of high-impact panels were left unprotected, defeating the purpose of PPF.
* PAINT DAMAGE RISKS– On high-value cars like McLaren, poor installation or careless removal can cause damage to delicate factory paintwork. In the wrong hands, what should be protection can quickly become a liability.
OUR SOLUTION – EXPERT REMOVAL & REINSTALLATION
We carefully REMOVED THE FAILED FILM using safe, controlled techniques to avoid harming the McLaren’s sensitive finish. Once the surface was prepped, our team applied a **custom, hand-laid and precision-cut installation** using premium PPF. This advanced method ensured:
* SEAMLESS, TUCKED EDGES – Film wrapped deep into body lines for a factory-level look.
* MaxIMUM SURFACE AREA COVERAGE – Every possible panel protected, including complex curves and aero elements.
* NO UNNECESSARY SEAMS– Clean, uninterrupted protection that enhances rather than distracts from the car’s design.
THE CRAFTSMANSHIP BEHIND THE WORK
Working on a high-value vehicle like a McLaren requires more than just technical ability—it requires CRAFTSMANSHIP, PATIENCE, AND RESPECT FOR THE CAR The intricate body lines, aggressive aero, and exotic paint systems leave zero room for error. Our team’s 20+ YEARS OF EXPERIENCE and certified training made it possible to deliver a flawless finish where others fell short.
THE RESULT
The McLaren left our shop with a FLAWLESSLY INSTALLED, SEAMLESS PPF FINISH that not only restored the client’s confidence but also ensured the car’s paint is now properly protected for years to come. This project was a clear reminder: on high-performance exotics, EXPERIENCE AND EXPERT CARE MATTER JUST AS MUCH AS THE PRODUCT ITSELF.
