At UPPF, protection is more than a shield, it’s a science. Every film we create is the product of relentless innovation, engineered to look as good as they last.
Hammerhead Pro
Hammerhead Pro is our performance-driven PPF for owners who want maximum protection without sacrificing showroom gloss. A slightly thicker TPU construction boosts impact resistance to help preserve OEM paint from chips, scratches, UV fade, and oxidation-safeguarding your car’s finish and long-term value.
Our advanced Platicoat™ formulation delivers powerful self-healing of fine swirls with heat or sunlight and raises stain and mar resistance, so the paint you love stays looking newly detailed. Maintenance is effortless. An extremely hydrophobic surface sheds water and dirt fast, making washes quicker and helping the gloss rebound immediately.
Top-of-the-line Invisiglue™ adhesive lays down crystal-clear with excellent edge hold and clean removability, minimizing lift lines and keeping the install virtually invisible. Built with superior durability, Hammerhead Pro is tuned for pure performance: clarity, strength, and longevity; so your vehicle stays protected, pristine, and ready for anything the road throws at it.
Hydrophobic Platicoat™ topcoat repels water, dirt, road grime, and other contaminants with its slick surface that prevents debris from adhering.
Self Heals
Our proprietary Platicoat™ topcoat automatically heals light scratches and swirl marks, restoring the surface to its original condition.
Anti Yellowing
Our advanced adhesives and polyurethane formulations resist yellowing from UV exposure, maintaining the film's crystal clear appearance.
Stain Resistant
Similar to the placoid scales of sharks, the film resists stains and environmental contaminants.
Lasting Bond
Our proprietary Invisiglue™ Technology creates a strong, lasting bond between the car body and film, ensuring the film remains securely adhered for the long term.
Nature Meets Mastery
At UPPF, protection is more than a shield, it’s a science. Every film we create is the product of relentless innovation, engineered to look as good as they last.
Cutting Edge Science
Meets
Timeless Elegance
Predator Grade Protection
The science behind UPPF’s cutting-edge paint protection film technology is inspired by the placoid scales of sharks- super hard, low-drag microstructures that resist abrasion and contaminants. Mirroring that biology, our elastomeric TPU disperses impact and self-heals, while our proprietary PLATICOAT top-coat adds a densely cross-linked, hydrophobic, UV-stable surface. The result is optically clear protection that repels grime and remains vivid for years.
Our mission: Top of the line protection at great value, what we call the “Golden Ratio". This unique calibration is what sets our products apart, delivering world-leading performance without excess or compromise. We leverage our unique business model to incorporate the most advanced components and deliver outstanding quality at competitive prices.

What's the difference between Hammerhead Pro and Hammerhead Clear?
UPPF Hammerhead Pro combines the protective qualities of Hammerhead Clear with a thicker TPU structure and top coat.
Is Hammerhead Pro water-resistant?
Yes, UPPF Hammerhead Pro PPF (paint protection film) is water-resistant due to its advanced hydrophobic topcoat. This innovative feature allows water to bead up and roll off the surface, facilitating a more efficient cleaning process.
What is hydrophobic PPF?
Hydrophobic paint protection film incorporates a topcoat with hydrophobic properties. This topcoat repels water, thereby facilitating the cleaning and maintenance of the film. The UPPF Hammerhead series is a collection of products that are all hydrophobic, combining superior protection with advanced hydrophobic properties.
Can PPF be applied to chrome and metal surfaces?
Yeah, UPPF Paint Protection Film can be used on chrome, aluminum, and brushed metals to keep these surfaces from getting scratched, chipped, or damaged in other ways. In most cases, PPF will make the finish a little glossy.
Can UPPF Paint Protection Film self-heal scratches?
UPPF Paint Protection Film can repair small scratches and swirls on its own. This is because of its advanced elastomeric polymer technology. However, if the scratches go deeper and damage the film, they might not heal completely. In that case, you might need to take it to a professional to fix it or replace it to get it looking and working like new.
How should I wash UPPF Paint Protection Film?
To wash UPPF Paint Protection Film, use a 2x2 bucket, UPPF Foam Soap, and a soft microfiber wash mitt. Rinse it thoroughly with clean water and dry it with a microfiber towel. This will help keep the film clear and help it work well. Regular maintenance is the key to keeping surfaces in good condition over time.
Will removing PPF harm my vehicle's paint?
Removing paint protection film (PPF) will not cause harm to your vehicle's paint if performed correctly. High-quality films like UPPF are designed to be safely removed, leaving the original paint intact and free from residue, ensuring your car maintains its aesthetic appeal without damage.
Is Paint Protection Film worth the cost?
Paint protection film (PPF) is a valuable investment due to its ability to shield vehicles from scratches, chips, and other damage, thereby preserving the vehicle's resale value and aesthetic condition over time. Investing in PPF can reduce the cost of repairs and repainting, making it a prudent long-term investment for car owners.
How long does Paint Protection Film last?
This protective film technology (PPF) generally has a lifespan of 5 to 10 years, contingent on factors such as film quality, installation methods, and environmental conditions. Factors such as driving style, road conditions, maintenance regimen, climate, and mileage all influence overall durability.
Can I use automatic car washes with PPF?
While high-quality Paint Protection Film (PPF) can handle a variety of cleaning methods, using automatic car washes with rough brushes too often can eventually mess up the film. To make sure PPF lasts and works well, it's best to use touchless car washes or hand washing techniques.
Do bubbles in PPF go away?
Yeah, most bubbles that pop up when you're putting on Paint Protection Film (PPF) usually go away within a few days to a few weeks. This is just because the film settles and the adhesive cures. If you have a pro install it, they can help you avoid bubbles and get a nice, smooth finish.
Can PPF hide existing scratches?
This protective film technology (PPF) has the capacity to either obscure or reduce the visibility of surface-level scratches that are already present, while concurrently providing protection against the development of new ones.
How do I remove scratches from PPF?
The removal of superficial scratches from paint protection film (PPF) can be achieved through the application of heat, using a heat gun for instance, or by subjecting the film to warm water, thereby activating its inherent self-healing properties. This process can effectively minimize or eliminate surface-level scratches. For more extensive scratches, it is advisable to consult a professional installer.
Is PPF good for off-roading?
Yes, Paint Protection Film (PPF) is highly beneficial for off-roading as it provides robust defense from scratches, chips, and debris commonly encountered on rough terrains.
Does PPF protect against door dings?
