Frequently asked questions about
car protection films

Paint Protection Film is a clear layer of TPU applied to the car's surface to protect the original paint from scratches, stone chips, UV rays and weather, while keeping the car's shine and original look.

The films we use are completely clear and virtually invisible after installation, especially with precise cutting and professionally wrapped edges. Matte films are also available if you want to switch your car to a matte finish while protecting it.

TPU films are more flexible and durable, with self-healing of light surface scratches and long-term resistance to yellowing. TPH films cost less but have a shorter lifespan and less flexibility. That's why Dr Protect relies on high-quality TPU films.

It's the ability of the film's top coat to make light surface scratches disappear on their own when exposed to heat, whether from the sun or warm water, leaving the film smooth and glossy again.

Yes. The film can be removed professionally without any damage to the original paint, provided it's done by specialized technicians and the paint is original and in good condition.

The front is the area most exposed to stone chips and scratches, so filming it gives good protection at a lower cost. Full coverage protects every panel and keeps the gloss even across the car. We'll help you choose based on how you use your car and your budget.

Yes, it's actually the best time. Installing film on a new car protects the original paint from day one before it gets any scratches, and increases its resale value.

Avoid washing the car for a few days after installation so the film fully settles, then wash with suitable products and keep high-pressure jets away from the film edges. Our team will explain the full care instructions at delivery.

Thermal window film reduces the sun's heat and UV rays entering the car, keeping the cabin cooler, protecting leather and the dashboard from cracking and fading, and easing the load on the AC.

We offer different tint levels, including high heat-rejection films with clear visibility that keep night vision safe. We'll recommend the right level for your needs and in line with applicable regulations.

When the cabin is cooler, the AC works less, which noticeably reduces the load on the engine and fuel consumption, especially during hot summer months.

Non-metallic thermal films such as nano ceramic films do not affect mobile, GPS or the car's sensors.

Nano graphene coating is an advanced liquid protective layer applied to the car's paint. It gives a deep gloss, repels water and dust, and protects against environmental factors and chemicals.

PPF is a thick physical layer that protects against scratches and stone chips, while nano ceramic and nano graphene are thin layers focused on gloss, water repellency and easy cleaning. You can combine both to get protection and shine at the same time.

It depends on the product used, the application method and maintenance. Our products last 3 to 5 years with regular care.

Full-coverage protection film starts at EGP 33,000 (XPEL 190 microns) and goes up to EGP 62,000 (Progatti 240 microns), including nano graphene for trim and clear heat insulation film for the doors. 3M heat insulation film on its own costs EGP 6,000, and a full nano-graphene coating costs EGP 25,000.

Yes, all our services come with a documented warranty. Protection film warranties reach 10–12 years depending on the film type and brand you choose.

The warranty covers material and installation defects such as yellowing, cracking, bubbles and edge lifting, according to each product's warranty terms, which are fully explained when you book.

We work with well-known international protection film brands such as Progatti, XPEL and HEXIS, and recommend the best fit for your needs and budget.

An original film comes with an official warranty card and serial number, and it's clear, flexible and doesn't yellow over time. At Dr Protect we hand you a documented warranty that proves the film is genuine.

It depends on the car's size and the service; front-only installation is faster than full coverage. Our team will give you an exact delivery time when you book.
