WINDSHIELD PROTECTION FILM
No longer recommended by Calgary PPFCalgary PPF is no longer recommending the use of Windshield Protection Films as a viable method of protecting windshields for Calgary consumers.Reason #1 - You will still get rock chips even if overall volume is diminished.Reason #2 - The film prevents glass shops from being able to fix these before they spider.Reason #3 - The process of removing the film to fix these chips often forces the chip to spider out, ruining the windshield.Reason #4 - These films constantly de-laminate and become scuffed and scratched within less than a year of driving, obstructing vision and marring the appearance of the vehicle.Reason #5 - These films are prohibitively expensive both for the end consumer and installation shops.Reason #6 - It is impossible to install these films to a high degree of aesthetic perfection. Burn marks and creases are common.Reason #7 - These films are not legal within the province of Alberta.These reasons apply to all current windshield protection film brands on the market today. All other coating or protection products are placebo products with zero provable efficacy.The only viable protection for windshields currently on the market is windshield insurance. Get your chips fixed ASAP, before they spider.
