Clearshield® Pro Paint Protection Film – FAQ
Clearshield® Pro is a premium paint protection film (PPF) from Solar Gard that acts as an invisible barrier against rock chips, scratches, road debris, bug acids, and environmental damage. At A1 Window Tinting in Olathe, KS, we install four Clearshield Pro options — Gloss, Matte, Hydro, and ACTIV — each designed for different looks and performance benefits.
-
Gloss – High-clarity finish that maintains your vehicle’s factory shine
-
Matte – Satin finish for a unique, high-end look while protecting paint
-
Hydro – Hydrophobic StainX® topcoat that repels water, dirt, and grime for easy cleaning
-
ACTIV – Instant self-healing technology that removes scratches without heat or water
Depending on the version, Clearshield Pro comes with a 7-year or 12-year warranty against yellowing, cracking, peeling, or bubbling. With proper care, it can protect your vehicle’s finish for well over a decade.
No — unless you choose the Matte finish for a custom satin look. Clearshield Pro Gloss, Hydro, and ACTIV are virtually invisible when installed by our certified technicians.
You can wash and wax your vehicle as usual. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive tools. For Hydro and ACTIV, water will bead off the surface, making cleaning faster and easier.
In an ideal situation, an installer will have the vehicle 24 hours to monitor the film for any lifting edges before releasing the vehicle to the owner. In situations where this is not possible, we strongly recommend at least a 2-3 hour waiting period indoors followed by an inspection to ensure all edges are sealed before the vehicle is released.
Film should be lifted at a 45-degree angle and pull towards yourself, this will cause the adhesive to release. Do Not fold the film over on itself and rip it off, this can leave adhesive behind. In cold weather environments we recommend a steamer to aid in softening the film/adhesive for removal.
Most customers protect high-impact areas such as:
-
Front bumper
-
Hood and fenders
-
Side mirrors
-
Rocker panels
-
Door edges and handles
Full-vehicle wraps are also available for maximum protection.
This is purely an interaction between light reflected from car surface through the film and polarized glasses. Light reflected from the surface is polarized in different direction and each polarization propagates through the film differently. This is an inherent feature of the film as it gets oriented to some degree during the installation. A good analogy would be looking at a screen of an ATM machine in polarized glasses – you can see a normal screen when you look straight at it and then you tilt your head and see a black screen.
