Paint protection film, Ghost Film certified

A clear urethane layer that takes the rock strike so your clear coat does not.

Clean-bay work on purpose: anything trapped under film is permanent.

Bluffdale’s Ghost Film certified installers

Paint protection film is the only thing we install that is genuinely physical. A ceramic coating changes how the surface behaves chemically; film puts a layer of urethane between your paint and the object hitting it. Stones chip the film, not the paint.

That matters most on the panels that actually get hit: the nose, the bumper, the leading edge of the hood and mirrors, the rocker panels behind the front wheels. On a car that sees I-15 or canyon roads, those are the areas that chip, and a chip is a body shop job rather than a polish.

We are Ghost Film certified, and every install happens in the bay at our Bluffdale shop. Coverage is quoted per vehicle, partial front to full car, and film starts at $1,250.

The Benefits of Paint Protection Film

Physical protection

Film puts a layer of urethane between the road and your clear coat. Stones chip the film, not the paint.

Self-healing top coat

Light swirl marks in the film itself close up with heat. The film takes the wear instead of the paint under it.

Effectively invisible

Fitted properly the film disappears on the panel: no lifted edges, no dirt line at the film boundary, no seam mid-panel.

A certified install

We are Ghost Film certified, and the quality shows in details you can check on any finished car.

Removable later

Fitted properly it comes off cleanly down the line, leaving the paint underneath in the condition it went on in.

Paint Protection Film: Invisible Armor, Explained

Paint protection film puts urethane between the road and your clear coat. The tabs below walk through what the film does, how a quality install shows and where the honest limits sit.

Built to take the rock strike

  • Film is built for exactly this: road rash and stone strike on the leading edges of the car.
  • Rock chips are physics. A ceramic coating is chemical and stops no impacts; urethane absorbs the hit, and many cars run film on the strike zones with a coating over everything.
  • Partial front, full front or full vehicle: we will tell you what is worth covering for how you actually drive rather than quoting the biggest package.
  • The honest limit: film is not armor against a heavy impact. It is the difference between a chip in film and a chip in your paint.

How PPF Actually Looks on Your Car

Film goes where the road hits first. Open a package and the car shows you exactly which panels are wrapped, or drag the bar and turn it yourself.

Two film quotes can look identical on day one.

The difference shows up at the edges, months later. Here is what to ask any shop before you compare prices, ours included.

What to ask a film installer, and how answers differ between quotes
What to ask The Trey’s standard What a budget quote often means
The film Ghost Film, and the certificate to show for it Unbranded film from whoever was cheapest that month
The edges Ask to see the edges on a finished car. We like that question Trimmed flush on the panel, the first place film lifts
Hood coverage Full hood on Full Front, so there is no line to see A stripe partway up the hood with a visible edge
Paint prep Washed, decontaminated and inspected before any film goes on Film laid straight over swirls and contamination
Sensors and cameras Covered as part of the front end, not masked around Skipped, leaving unprotected gaps
Removal later Comes off healthy factory paint cleanly, as film should Adhesive that fights the panel on the way off

Film or coating? Different tools.

One is physical, one is chemical, and on hard-driven cars they usually end up working together.

How a ceramic coating and paint protection film divide the job
Criteria Ceramic coating Paint protection film
Kind of protection Chemical: a bonded, glass-like layerPhysical: a sacrificial urethane barrier
Thickness One to two microns150 to 200 microns in the premium class
Rock chips No help at allThis is the job
Self-healing NoLight marks re-flow with heat
Wash behavior Its specialty: release and beadingGood, with hydrophobic top coats built in
Where it goes Every painted surfaceThe impact zones, or the whole car

The combination is common for a reason: film where the road hits first, coating over everything for the day-to-day. The ceramic page covers the other half.

First time getting my raptor detailed by Trey and it was amazing! No other detailers come close to how good my truck looks. Accommodated my schedule and got me in exactly when I needed. He’s got a lifetime customer.

I cannot believe the AMAZING job Trey did on my 2023 Cadillac Escalade. He completely restored the paint job. It had tons of scratches and some how he was able to remove them all. I had no problem paying what he was asking because it was totall Worth every penny. He will be the ONLY Detailer that I will deal with from now on. Thanks alot for your professionalism and great personality. Robert Grant

Trey was incredible! The interior of my truck hasn’t looked this good since it was purchased! He was also great in communicating on his arrival time and what to expect. I would highly recommend Trey’s Detailing!

Honestly, I was blown away by Trey's Detailing. The effort and attention to detail working on my car was incredible. They stayed well past their scheduled commitment to make sure the thing really shined, and from the bottle of cleaner tucked into a carefully folded microfiber towel left in the car to help us keep it clean to the perfect shine of my car's exterior, these are people who genuinely love making your car as beautiful and spotless as they can. If you need detailing in northern Utah County, Trey's gets my highest recommendation.

I have been getting my cars detailed for years all across the country in the various states that I've lived in. Never, and I mean NEVER, has my car been this clean. It's as if it has never been driven. I am so excited to have such a clean car. Thanks Justin for your attention to detail! Have fun on the hill, you deserve it!

Justin came to our home and did a full detail on our 2022 CRV. The car looks like new! Inside and outside were cleaned thoroughly. One thing I appreciated was constant communication with periodic updates. I could relax in my home and be about my day while he worked. I highly recommend this service!

Amazing service, they’re extremely friendly and helpful. With some flexible payment plans it made giving my car the love it needs 1000 times easier. When I got my car back, it looked 100 times better than when it rolled off of the wall. I’ll recommend anyone who listens!

Trey was communicative every step of the way and transparent with regards to the cost of the full detailing. Justin arrived on time (early actually!) and was both courteous and professional. My Infiniti looks brand new, inside and out, which is HUGE considering the abuse it had survived with a toddler! HIGHLY recommend— and will be using again.

I had such a great experience with Trey! He was super flexible in working around my busy schedule, and love how he comes to your home, which I really appreciated. There was some stubborn stains on my windows and he suggested I bring it to his shop the next day. The night after my detail it unfortunately rained, and without hesitation Trey offered to do a quick touch up for me in addition to polishing the stains on the windows. He’s also very knowledgeable and even took the time to teach me how to keep the detail maintained. His professionalism, quality of work and customer service really stand out. Highly recommend! 🤍✨

Trey has been great to work with. He comes by about once a month to detail my cars. He’s really good at following up and is super on top of the schedule. He also does a great job of detailing the cars. Super convenient as he just comes to my house and does it in my driveway. I’d highly recommend he also did a great job with getting some scratches out and ceramic coating

What pairs with film

Film handles the physical half of protection. These two decide what the rest of the finish looks like.

Coating over the top

  • Film and coating are not alternatives. Many cars get film on the strike zones and a coating over everything, including the film.
  • The film takes the impacts; the coating handles the day-to-day chemistry, with release and beading across every painted surface.
  • The two solve different problems, and on a kept car they usually belong together.

Start from corrected paint

  • Machine polishing levels swirls and haze out of the clear coat instead of hiding them. It is the step before anything gets locked under film or a coating.
  • Film and coatings are both optically clear: they protect the finish you give them, so the paint gets polished to its best before anything is sealed.
  • Corrected paint is the best possible base for protection, and most corrections at the shop roll straight into it.

Common questions

Will film stop stone chips?

It is built for exactly that: road rash and stone strike on the leading edges. It is not armor against a heavy impact, but it is the difference between a chip in film and a chip in your paint.

Does it go yellow?

Cheap film does, for known chemical reasons: plasticizers migrating out of PVC and UV breaking down older urethanes. The current premium class is aliphatic TPU, engineered to stay clear for years. It is one of the reasons the film fitted matters as much as the fitting.

Can I have film and a coating?

Yes, and it is a common combination: film on the panels that take strikes, coating over the whole car including the film.

How much of the car should I cover?

Depends on the car and the miles. We will tell you what is worth covering for how you actually drive rather than quoting the biggest package.

Increase the longevity of your PPF with a maintenance plan

Film ages best when it is washed right: contamination lifted before it bakes in, edges kept clean, hydrophobics working. A plan keeps that happening on a schedule instead of when you get around to it.

Plans run from bi-weekly to quarterly, priced per visit, and the shorter the interval the less each visit costs, down to 60 percent off the one-time rate.
