Why LLumar Valor

A self-healing film that takes the hits

LLumar Valor is a self-healing clear film that takes the rock chips, swirls and stains so your paint doesn't.

Self-healing

LLumar states Valor self-heals surface scratches with sun or engine heat.

Easy to clean

LLumar's Tetrashield technology is super hydrophobic, so dirt and water slide off.

Optically clear

LLumar describes a clear shine without orange-peel texture or optical distortion.

Prep is included

Film only looks as good as the paint under it. Every PPF install at 68 Auto Film includes a hand wash, a clay bar treatment and a single-stage paint correction on the areas being wrapped, before any film goes on.

Features per LLumar's published Valor information. Durability and hydrophobic performance can be affected by environmental conditions, road treatment chemicals and cleaning frequency. Porsche, exotic and other high-end sports cars are quoted per vehicle because they take more labor, time and care. Looking for a matte finish? See matte PPF, or a new color with color PPF.

Protection

What PPF protects against

Paint protection film is a layer you can see through that sits on top of your paint. When a rock hits the hood or a bug splatters on the bumper, the film takes the hit.

Rock chips and road debris

The everyday freeway damage that pits hoods, bumpers and mirror caps.

Light scratches and swirl marks

Surface marks land in the film — and on Valor, they self-heal with heat.

Bird droppings, bug acids and tree sap

Stains etch the film's surface instead of your clear coat.

PPF vs. ceramic coating

They do different jobs. PPF is a physical film that defends against chips and scratches; ceramic coating adds a slick, easy-to-clean surface but cannot stop a rock chip. Many owners use both — read about ceramic coating.
