OziShield - Marine Shield Paint Protection

So - what can I do with this film on my vessel?

We can supply you with our special polyurethane film, known as Paint Protection Film. The film is manufactured from clear polyurethane and has an acrylic removable adhesive. When properly installed, this film will help stop damage to your paintwork from abrasions, discolouring and stone chips when being trailered.

You must read this section. (Once more but slowly: YOU - MUST - READ - THIS - SECTION.)

Paint Protection Film is not entirely invisible, but it is very, very clear and is usually not noticeable from 2 metres away from the vessel. The clarity of the film depends on a number of things, especially the quality of the installation and the maintenance of the film as it ages.

Paint Protection Film is not indestructible. Its job is to protect your paintwork, but the film can be damaged.  Certain chemicals, bugs guts, tyre shines, certain coloured waxes and polishes, oils, textas, methylated spirits, eucalyptus oil, dyes and many other things can damage or discolour the soft surface of the film.

We strongly recommend that you only use Plexus to clean, polish and seal the film. Plexus is non-colouring and is easy to apply, and relatively inexpensive. Paint Protection Film is porous (meaning that it has millions of microscopic holes in its structure) and these holes will collect and retain chemicals and small particles of dirt. Once the holes are filled with rubbish it is difficult to completely remove them. Therefore you must plug these holes with Plexus on a regular basis to help keep the film from discolouring. Luckily for you, we sell Plexus, although you can also purchase it from a number of motorcycle shops and boat supply shops.

Does the film really work?

We've been in this business since 2003 and we've installed over 1500 kits on cars, motorcycles, bicycles and lots of stationary items. Many of our customers are repeat customers; once they've discovered this product and realise that it really does work, then they call us to get their next car done. Our record at the moment is 8 cars for one customer (not including our fleet customers).

Not convinced yet? Well don't take our word for it as most manufacturers including Aston Martin, Audi, BMW, Citroen, Ferrari, Ford, Holden, Lotus, Maserati, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi, Morgan, Nissan, Porsche, Subaru, Suzuki, Toyota, Volkswagen and Volvo either install this product at the factory or offer it to customers as an accessory. So if these guys think that it works, then what's stopping you (or more precisely, what's stopping those stonechips)?

What's so special about polyurethane? Does it come off if I want to remove it later? Will it damage my paintwork? How do I look after it? Does it let the paint fade evenly?

Questions, questions. Hopefully we can answer all of your technical questions and more on our FAQ page.

Believe it or not, this film will survive under water and protect hulls, transom boards, cleat areas, jetski keels and lots more.

We've had customers put it on their boats, jetskis and kayaks. The film helps to keep the fibreglass from chipping, cracking and discolouring. Metal painted hulls get damaged during towing as stones are thrown up from your SUV. So, protect just the first few feet of the hull to avoid all of that damage.
