Your First PPF Installation in Orlando: What to Expect Step by Step

Thinking about getting Paint Protection Film (PPF) for your vehicle in Orlando? Smart move. Between Florida’s intense sunshine, unpredictable rain, sand, and debris-filled roads, your vehicle’s paint is constantly under attack.

PPF offers the ultimate shield—but if it’s your first time, you might be wondering what actually happens during the installation. At Turbo Tint Orlando, we make the process smooth, precise, and professional. Here’s what you can expect from start to finish.

Step 1: Consultation & Customization

Your experience starts with a consultation—either in person or over the phone. We’ll ask questions to understand:

  • Your driving habits (city, highway, off-road?)
  • Where the vehicle is usually parked (garage, driveway, street?)
  • Your goals (full-body protection or just high-impact zones?)

We’ll then walk you through our PPF coverage options, including:

  • Partial Front-End (bumper, partial hood/fenders, mirrors)
  • Full Front-End

  • Track Package

  • Full Vehicle Wrap

Each package offers different levels of protection—and we tailor it to your needs, vehicle type, and budget.

Step 2: Surface Preparation

Cleanliness is everything. Before the film touches your car, we perform a thorough wash and decontamination process, which may include:

  • Foam bath and hand wash
  • Iron and tar removal
  • Clay bar treatment
  • Panel-by-panel paint inspection

If necessary, we also do minor paint correction to remove surface swirls or imperfections. This ensures the film adheres flawlessly and that no blemishes are sealed beneath it.

Step 3: Precision Film Cutting

At Turbo Tint Orlando, we don’t cut film by hand. We use a plotter with software-generated templates specific to your vehicle’s make, model, and trim.

This ensures:

  • Exact fit for every panel
  • No risk of cutting on your vehicle’s paint
  • Clean edges around badges, sensors, and emblems

Our technology guarantees a seamless finish that looks factory-installed—not aftermarket.

Step 4: PPF Application

Now comes the installation. Using a slip solution, our trained technicians carefully apply the PPF to your vehicle’s surface, one panel at a time.

This step involves:

  • Positioning the film
  • Squeegeeing out air bubbles and solution
  • Heat-sealing the edges for durability
  • Aligning around curves, edges, and corners

We take our time—because precision matters. Your PPF is only as good as the care taken during application.

Step 5: Curing and Final Inspection

Once installed, the vehicle is left to cure in a temperature-controlled space to help the adhesive bond completely.

Before handing the car back to you, we:

  • Inspect all edges and seams
  • Re-check fit and finish
  • Clean up any leftover residue or streaks
  • Add final touches for presentation

You’ll leave with a freshly protected vehicle and complete confidence in your installation.

Step 6: Aftercare Instructions

We’ll walk you through how to care for your PPF, including:

  • Avoiding washes for 7 days
  • Using pH-neutral soaps
  • Avoiding abrasive tools or waxes with petroleum
  • The benefits of combining PPF with ceramic coating for easier maintenance

You’ll also receive warranty details and product info, so you’re fully equipped to protect your investment long term.
