How Much Does PPF Cost? Paint Protection Film Pricing Guide

Paint protection film (PPF) is one of the most valuable investments you can make in your vehicle's appearance and resale value. But one of the most common questions we hear at LA Wrap and Tint School is: "How much does PPF cost?" The answer isn't as straightforward as you might hope, because pricing depends on numerous factors including vehicle size, coverage area, film brand, installer experience, and your location. In this comprehensive guide, we'll break down everything you need to know about PPF pricing, from ballpark figures for different coverage options to the hidden costs that catch many customers off guard.

Not every customer needs or wants full-body coverage, which is why partial PPF packages have become increasingly popular.

At typical California rates of $75-$150 per hour for certified PPF installers, labor alone costs $1,875 to $6,000.

Beyond the quoted installation price, several hidden costs can surprise customers. Pretreatment and paint correction, necessary to remove contaminants, swirl marks, or oxidation before PPF application, costs $300-$800 for full-body work.
