01 / Paint Protection Studio, Kyiv

We measure your paint before we protect it.

Paint protection film resists stone chips and road impact. Ceramic coating changes how the surface behaves, so washing is easier and light surface marks in the film top layer flow back with heat inside the manufacturer-stated window. We take eight depth readings per panel and specify from the numbers.

We measure your paint before we protect it

Three core services, quoted from eight paint-depth readings taken at the assessment. Every price below is a starting price in UAH for a mid-size sedan; single tax payer status means VAT is not added. The 600 UAH assessment fee is fully credited within 14 days against the service you book.

  1. 01

    Paint correction

    Machine polishing that removes wash marring and swirl marks, confirmed against the depth readings before any coating goes on.

    from 8 900 UAH

  2. 02

    Ceramic coating

    Changes how the surface behaves so washing is easier and UV fade slows, with a manufacturer-stated service life of 3 to 5 years under the recommended maintenance wash routine.

    from 14 500 UAH

  3. 03

    Paint protection film

    Resists physical impact such as stone chips on the front end. Light surface marks in the clear top layer can flow back with heat inside the manufacturer's stated window; cuts and tears will not.

04 / Process

Four stages, each one logged in the bay

We measure your paint before we protect it. Every stage carries an elapsed-time label and a recorded value, so the handover sheet matches the work done at 12 Shevchenka St, Kyiv.

  1. 01 00:00 - 00:45

    Measurement and damage map

    Eight paint-depth readings per panel plus a gloss-meter baseline, with chips, swirls and earlier repairs photographed and marked.

  2. 02 00:45 - 02:30

    Decontamination wash

    Two-bucket wash, iron and tar removal, clay decontamination, then panel wipe. Film and coating both need genuinely clean paint.

  3. 03 02:30 - 09:00

    Correction and film application

    Machine polishing to the agreed level, then plotter-cut film fitted wet or dry with wrapped edges on every accessible panel.

  4. 04 09:00 - 33:00

    Cure, gloss check, handover

    Coating cure under controlled temperature, a second gloss reading, then a walkaround with your warranty document and aftercare routine.

Elapsed times are studio averages for a mid-size sedan and shift with vehicle size, paint condition and film choice. Request a quote for a bay slot and a fixed schedule.

Comparison / 03

Paint protection film and ceramic coating solve two different problems

Real-world use cases, as recorded on our job sheets.
Use casePaint protection filmCeramic coating
Stone chips Urethane layer of 150–200 µm absorbs the impact No impact protection; the paint takes the hit
Salt and road chemicals Sealed barrier, road film never touches the paint Hydrophobic surface, still needs the maintenance wash
UV and oxidation Filters UV at the film surface Slows oxidation while the coating layer stays intact
Gloss retention Manufacturer-stated service life of 3–5 years with the recommended maintenance wash routine Gloss measured at handover, typically 2–3 years to reapplication
Light surface marks Marks in the clear top layer can flow back with heat within the manufacturer's stated window Coating layers do not self-heal; cuts and tears are permanent
