No more stone chips?

[B2Bomber]

Came across these ads in one of the car mags onboard the barge, does anybody have any idea whether these kind of stuff or something similar, are available in the Philippines?

[ILuvDetailing]

AFAIK 3M has a similar product. Abangan mo sa transport show, may mga brochures ata dun. One thing tho... its expensive

hmm... I wish I could ILD, but I won't be home til some time mid year...say, have you any additional info re: the 3M's similar line-up?TIA anyway, if there is a similar product in the show, and you get enticed, hope you'll have the time to share whatever info you get. thanks. again.,

[niky]

3M's bringing the clearbra here? Magkano ba? I'm definitely interested.

[the_wildthing]

If you ask the right people they'd probably bring it in. Di ba may 3M Phils?

[BHANE]

Kamusta po kayo!

As to the question, if 3M PPF (Paint Protection Film) will be available in Philippines? I would say its likely possible, depending on the market and demand. My company was one of the first 3M authorized dealer/applicator center in the west coast (USA) since 99'. We are an exclusive/specialized company in the CPF industry. This 3M product has been around since the 70's and just now hitting the automotive consumers early 90's. Since then, the product has improved its quality and prooven to minimize damage from rock chips and scratches on your cars painted surfaces (bumper/hood/etc..). There's more info about 3M PPF on the net, plenty of read up. Having PPF dyan sa Pinas would be very useful, knowing maraming stones and other debris on the roads that can cause damage. I plan on doing demos in Philippines sometime this year. I was thinking of applying film on several cars dyan, and see how the film works thru daily average drives (depending on the size of the vehicle, and its free!). The cost and avialability will be another factor. Keep in mind, this material is expensive, plus the labor cost. I will contact my friends over at 3M Corporation doon sa Minnesota, and possibly arrange a meeting with 3M Automotive Philippines. I will see to it and make sure 3M film will be available to my home country. I will keep everyone posted. Maramaing Salamat!

^ how does it look when placed on the car? i have never seen it in person.

i think it is an excellent concept, but i'd only buy it if it looked virtually invisible.

TIA

[wren]

it is virtually invisible. you have to look really closely to notice it.





sana meron din silang clearbra for women.

no kidding, may nakalagay nang bra yung beemer? wow...ayus ah.

FXT...panalo yang suggestion niyo!

[Karding]

only if I can afford $3,000 for the fender, hood, bumper, side-view mirror

[ILuvDetailing]

$3000!!!! OMG!

[OTEP]

$3000!!!! OMG!

Mas mura pa atang mabangga. hehehe.

[Karding]

$3000!!!! OMG!

kaya kung hindi ako naka M3 (BMW M3 at hindi Mazda3 ha!) or any car worth more than $35,000, hindi na lang ako magpa clear bra

Mas mura pa atang mabangga. hehehe.

mainam na full body paint job na yang price na yan, hehehe.

[wren]

only if I can afford $3,000 for the fender, hood, bumper, side-view mirror

di ko rin ma-afford, kahit na yung tingi lang . tsaka depende rin sa installer yan, much like window tints. also heard of cases of yellowing.

[chuaed]

parang laminating film lang siya...

then i could be wrong...

[theveed]

Meron na ganyan dito

If you can't get those from 3M, punta kayo Concorde, Foliatec brand has it. Sorry didn't check the price.

If you have no clue how it looks like...

Check the following vehicles/spots:

CRV Gen 1 - Near where the rear door's lower corner meets the wheel arch.
Pajero Gen 2/2.5 - Buong running board.

Yung para sa body mas manipis konti... Pero ganun na ganun.

[SNAKE V6]

May nakita nakong oto na nakaganya, dimo talaga mahahalata unless lapitan mo at makita mo yung edge nung laminate. But at 3K dolls, di na alng. Paint job na lang, unless naka '06 M5 or more expensive model ako..

[BlueBimmer]

not worth it nga kung regular cars/suvs. kung luxury or exotics ok yan

[ronald_m]

Usually it on runs from $500-up, It covers 1/4 of your hood,front bumper.headlights.They install this clear film like tint.Google time.$3k is overkill.

[GlennSter]

sana may clear bra din para sa mga

hihihihi

seriously...mejo mahal pala yan.diko kaya.ang dami ng chips ng sasakyan ko dito..grabe tinouch up ko nalang ng paint dahil bag sa start na mag kalawang...
