At Kartal Auto, we specialize in providing top-tier protection and care for luxury vehicles. Recently, we had the pleasure of working on a Lamborghini Jalpa in Dubai, where we applied high-quality Paint Protection Film (PPF) to safeguard its stunning exterior. During the process, our expert team identified several issues that required attention. Below, we outline the challenges we found and the solutions we implemented to ensure the car’s paint remained flawless and protected.
Identified Issues & Solutions
- Pre-existing Paint Scratches and Chips
- Issue: The Lamborghini Jalpa had visible paint chips and scratches from road debris and wear over time, particularly on the front bumper and hood.
- Solution: Before applying the PPF, we performed a careful paint correction process to remove the scratches and chips. Once the surface was restored to its original condition, we applied the PPF, which not only sealed the paint but also provided a protective layer against future damage.
- Uneven Paint Surface
- Issue: The paint surface had areas of unevenness, including light swirl marks and discoloration, which would have compromised the adhesion of the PPF.
- Solution: Our team performed a multi-stage polishing to correct the paint surface, ensuring it was smooth and free from imperfections. This process created a perfect foundation for the PPF, ensuring optimal adhesion and a flawless finish.
- Lack of Protection on High-Traffic Areas
- Issue: Certain areas of the vehicle, such as the front bumper, side mirrors, and door edges, were particularly vulnerable to stone chips and scratches but lacked adequate protection.
- Solution: We strategically applied PPF to high-impact areas, ensuring that the most vulnerable parts of the Lamborghini Jalpa were fully protected against rocks, debris, and other environmental hazards. This targeted protection will keep the car looking pristine for years to come.
- Inconsistent Film Application
- Issue: The previous PPF application (if any) had areas with bubbles, wrinkles, and misalignment, creating an uneven appearance on the vehicle’s surface.
- Solution: We removed the old, poorly applied PPF and re-applied a fresh layer with meticulous care. Our team utilized advanced techniques to ensure the film was smoothly applied, with no bubbles or wrinkles, for a perfect, seamless finish.
- UV Damage and Fading
- Issue: The Lamborghini Jalpa’s paint showed signs of UV fading, particularly on the hood and roof, caused by prolonged exposure to the harsh Dubai sun.
- Solution: In addition to applying the PPF, which offers UV protection, we used a high-quality ceramic coating to further shield the paint from UV rays. This added layer not only preserved the paint’s vibrancy but also enhanced the protective capabilities of the PPF, ensuring the car’s exterior stayed looking fresh for a long time.
