Does anyone know who does the protection film for cars to protect the paint from stone chips etc.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

I do know that a company called Armourfend do do it for you, but when calling them there customer service is very poor.

They say they will come out and do the protection film for you, then when you do call them they change their mind. ( They are a very good company ) I was just wondering if anyone else does protection film as well.

I have contacted armourfed again, they say yes they can come out to do the cars for me, if I just let them know what area I am in.

As I did mention they are a good company, I just thought maybe there would be some one nearer that did protection film.

Thumbs up

I got my STi8 Armourfended - no prolem with their service. Did most of the tqlking via email and this included them sending me thedrawing of the different areas they protected. I went for the whole lot and it cost me around £600. They fitted it at the dealers before I picked it up.

It probably was one of there off days, as I talked to them over the phone, by e-mail is more better to speak to them I think.

Yes they are a very good company, as they did send me a picture of where they do the Protective Film on the subaru.

It just sometimes easier to find people who do protective film nearer to where you live. If I can,t find anyone nearer then I will go to Armourfed again.

I hope the mods are OK with me saying this but we had a load of kits made up 2 years ago and I haven't done anything with them.

They are in UV stable sheet, very similar to Armourfend but the Armourfend kit includes some extra pieces where I doubt you would ever get a stone chip.

£50 a kit (incl vat and post) if you can tell me what record Simon de Banke holds.

Classic shape only, first 8 people to call with the right answer.

OK, Looks like I will try them after all then, if they really do come out with no problems. You have all been of great help much appreciated. How much do think they will charge for three cars ?

Pete,

How easy is this stuff to DIY (ie good bubble-free application)?
