Paint protection film in North Vancouver
Nothing chips paint like the North Shore. The Upper Levels is gravel half the winter, the Sea to Sky is gravel the other half, and every trip up Cypress or Seymour is a run behind somebody whose tyres are throwing grit at your bumper.

Why the North Shore books film
Winter gravel does the damage here, not the road
Municipalities on the North Shore grit heavily and early, which is the right call for the hills and the wrong thing entirely for a front bumper. Loose gravel sits on the highway long after the ice has gone, and every vehicle ahead of you is a gravel gun aimed at your leading edges.
Eight mil of self-healing urethane goes over exactly those panels — bumper, the leading edge of the hood, mirrors, headlamps. It is clear, so the car looks like the car, and light swirls and wash marks close themselves back up as the top coat warms. It is the one job on this site we would push before a colour change if you drive the Upper Levels daily.

North Vancouver questions
Asked here more than anywhere else
Is the front end enough, or do I need the full front?
Front end covers the bumper, the leading edge of the hood and the mirrors, which takes most of the damage. Full front carries the film across the whole hood and front fenders and is worth it if you do the Sea to Sky regularly, because grit at highway speed reaches further back.
Does film help with winter salt?
Yes, and that is half the point on the North Shore. Salt attacks the clear coat; film is a barrier over it. Rinse the car more often in winter, particularly the arches and lower edges.
Can you film a car that already has stone chips?
We can, and it will hide small ones, but film over damage locks it in. If the chips have gone through to primer they are worth touching in first — we will tell you which yours are at the quote.
