ONE PPF is a premium paint protection film brand built by installers, for installers. With 105+ colors, plus transparent films, headlight PPF, and ceramic window film, ONE PPF offers a comprehensive product lineup.

ONE PPF was designed from the shop floor by founder Mark Bonamici after years of installing every major brand. Every product decision, from adhesive formulation to color accuracy, is made through the lens of a working installer.

Our headquarters is in Sarasota, FL, where our training and distribution facility is co-located.

105+ colors: Gloss, Metallic, Liquid, Color Shift, Chameleon, Satin, Satin Metallic, and Carbon Fiber, plus transparent films in multiple finishes.

Yes. Many EVs ship with thinner, water-based clear coats that chip and scratch more easily, and instant torque throws more debris at the front end. A self-healing PPF over the high-impact zones keeps an EV's finish flawless. We publish EV-specific guidance for Tesla, Cybertruck, and Rivian.

Ultimate HydroGloss is 8.5mil with a 12-year limited warranty, it's our thickest clear PPF, with our premium hydrophobic finish. HydroGloss is 7.5mil with a 10-year limited warranty, same optical brilliance in a thinner, more flexible format built for daily volume. Both share the same adhesive system and installation characteristics.

105+ colors across 6 finish categories: Gloss, Satin, Metallic, Liquid, Color Shift, and Carbon Fiber, plus Chameleon color-shift effects and Launch Edition drops. Standard color films are 7.5mil with a 10-year limited warranty; Carbon Fiber PPF (8mil hybrid TPU) and Glow-in-the-Dark Color PPF carry an 8-year limited warranty. All color films share the same adhesive behavior as our clear films.

ONE PPF Carbon Fiber is a hybrid single-layer TPU carbon fiber film. Unlike laminated alternatives, it can be scored without delaminating. It supports wet or dry install, has air release built in, and features a true 8mil construction with a dustless surface. 8-year limited warranty.

HydroSatin is a true semi-gloss satin sitting in the middle of the lineup between gloss and matte, with an OEM-grade sheen, plus the same self-healing topcoat (activated by heat or sun) as the rest of the ONE PPF family.

Yes. Every film in the ONE PPF lineup, clear, satin, matte, and all 105+ colors, shares the same adhesive behavior, slip curve, and tack characteristics. Master One, you've mastered them all. This eliminates the learning curve when switching between film types.

Mix 2ml of Johnson & Johnson Baby Shampoo per 32oz of warm distilled water. This provides the ideal slip ratio for positioning and squeegee work across all ONE PPF films.

No. ONE PPF films are designed to work without adhesive promoter. Use warm distilled water only for the tack solution. Apply moderate pressure to activate adhesion. No alcohol, no promoter, no specialty chemicals required.

ONE PPF films feature Edge-Seal Technology. Apply moderate pressure with distilled water to activate the edge seal. The film naturally self-wraps around edges. After all edges are sealed, post-heat with a heat gun at a safe distance to lock the seal permanently.

After all edges are sealed, post-heat the entire panel with a heat gun at a safe distance. Avoid overheating, ONE PPF films respond to moderate, even heat. This step activates the adhesive's full bonding strength and locks edge seals.

Yes. Steam is a safe and effective method for repositioning ONE PPF films during installation. It softens the adhesive bond temporarily without damaging the film or the paint surface underneath.

ONE PPF is a wet-install-only film across our entire lineup, Ultimate HydroGloss, HydroGloss, HydroSatin, HydroMatte, and all Color PPF films. The only exception is our Hybrid Carbon Fiber PPF, which supports both wet and dry installation. For detailed installation instructions, see our install guide.

Standard colored PPF: 10-year limited warranty (Carbon Fiber and Glow: 8-year). HydroGloss, HydroSatin, and HydroMatte (7.5mil): 10-year limited warranty. Ultimate HydroGloss (8.5mil): 12-year limited warranty. All warranties cover manufacturing defects including yellowing, bubbling, cracking, peeling, and delamination under normal conditions. Registering the install (vehicle VIN) creates a warranty record and is the fastest way for us to verify a claim later. We ask the installing dealer to register it through the Activate Your Warranty page, and you can also register it yourself at any time. If your install was never registered, you still have your warranty. Registration is a convenience, not a condition, and your coverage does not depend on a step someone else was supposed to take. If there is no registration on file when you file a claim, we will establish your coverage from your proof of purchase and your install date. See the full Warranty page for complete terms.

The warranty covers manufacturing defects: yellowing, bubbling, cracking, peeling, and delamination that occur under normal use and conditions. It applies to the film material itself when properly installed by a professional.

The warranty does not cover: improper installation or handling, damage from chemicals or abrasives, damage from accidents or collisions, normal wear from road debris, modifications after installation, or use outside of normal conditions. See our full warranty page for complete details.

Submit your claim to sales@onepaintprotection.com with your dealer information, photos of the issue, proof of purchase, and installation date. Our team reviews every claim. See our full claims process at /claims.

Warranty coverage applies per the terms of the manufacturer's limited warranty. For questions about coverage on a vehicle you did not originally register, contact sales@onepaintprotection.com with the registration details and our team will confirm what applies.
