Coverage options

Two ways to protect it. No surprise add-ons.

Both packages are installed with Apterix paint protection film and carry a 15-year warranty. Headlight and fog light film is included in both — coverage many shops quote separately.

Front End

Where chips land

80–90% of rock chip damage hits these panels. Start here.

  • Full hood
  • Front bumper
  • Front fenders
  • Mirror caps
  • Headlights & fog lights

Price depends on vehicle size, body lines and paint condition. Trucks, SUVs, wide-body and exotic cars use more film and more labor than a sedan — so we quote your car, in writing, before we schedule.

Why Arizona is harder on paint than almost anywhere

UV index 11–12, most of the year

Add 110°+ panel temperatures and unprotected clear coat chalks and fades fast. Apterix film is UV-stable and built for hot climates — it takes the sun instead of your paint.

Monsoon dust and haboobs

A wall of dust at 40 mph is sandblasting. It micro-scratches every leading edge. Self-healing film flows back smooth in the next day's sun.

Loop 101, Shea and Pima

Construction traffic and gravel at highway speed, every day. PPF is a sacrificial layer that takes the chips so the factory paint never does.

The film

Why Apterix, and why we put our name on it

Apterix is our own paint protection film, installed exclusively by Supreme Wraps locations and select partner installers. There's no third-party brand to hide behind — if the film or the install isn't right, that's on us, and we fix it.

  • 15-year warranty — three to five years beyond the 10–12 year terms standard among major film brands.
  • Self-healing top coat — light swirls and wash marks flow back smooth. In Scottsdale it usually heals itself in the driveway.
  • UV-stable — engineered for desert heat; no yellowing, no hazing.
  • Your finish, your call — PRO gloss, EVO matte, or CLR color PPF if you want a new look with protection built in.

The install

What actually makes film last

Most of the time on your car goes into prep, not application. That's where a 15-year film either earns it or doesn't.

  1. 1Written quote, panel by panel. Bring the car or send photos. You get an exact number and a timeline before you commit.
  2. 2Full paint decontamination. Film bonds to clean paint. Light swirls are corrected first so nothing gets sealed in.
  3. 3Wrapped, sealed edges. Edges are tucked, not trimmed on the paint, so they stay down through Arizona summers.
  4. 4Inspection with you. You see every panel before you leave, and your warranty is registered before you drive off.

How to judge any PPF installer — including us

Get a quote from anyone you like. Just ask these five questions, and make them answer in writing.

  • What film is it, and who warranties it? Ask for the brand and the warranty term. Ours: Apterix, 15 years.
  • Are headlights and fog lights included? Many shops add them at the end. Ours are included in both packages.
  • Is the price a range or a number? A range means the number moves after the car is in the bay. Ours is fixed in writing first.
  • Are edges wrapped or cut on the paint? Cut edges lift in the heat. Wrapped edges don't.
  • Have they done your car before? Exotic and luxury body lines are where inexperience shows. Ask to see their work on your make.

Questions Scottsdale drivers ask us

How much does paint protection film cost in Scottsdale?+

It depends on how much of the car you cover and the vehicle itself. Front-end coverage includes the hood, fenders, front bumper, mirror caps, headlights and fog lights. Full-body coverage includes every exterior painted surface plus headlights and fog lights. Send us your year, make and model and we reply with an exact written price, not a range.

Does the film yellow or peel in Arizona heat?+

Quality film installed correctly does not. Apterix uses a UV-stable top coat designed for hot climates; yellowing was a problem with older, cheaper films that lacked proper UV inhibitors. Peeling is almost always an installation issue. Properly wrapped and sealed edges stay down through Arizona summers.

What warranty does the film carry?+

Every Apterix installation carries a 15-year warranty. Most major PPF brands warranty their film for 10 to 12 years; Apterix runs 15.

How long does installation take?+

A front-end package is typically 1 to 2 days. Full-body coverage is usually 3 to 5 days depending on the vehicle. Most of the time goes into prep — full paint decontamination and wrapped panel edges — which is what makes film last.

Should I get PPF or a ceramic coating?+

They do different jobs. PPF is a physical polyurethane layer that stops rock chips, scratches and etching. Ceramic coating is a chemical layer that makes washing easier and adds gloss but doesn't stop chips. Many Scottsdale customers do both: PPF on impact zones, ceramic on top.

Can you film a car that isn't brand new?+

Yes, as long as the paint is in good shape. We correct light swirls before installing; existing chips and deep scratches should be touched up first because the film seals in whatever is underneath. Bring it by and we'll tell you honestly what's worth protecting.

Your paint only gets one chance at day one.
