The PPF Explorer Package – Smart, Targeted Protection Where You Need It Most

Callum Foster

When it comes to protecting your vehicle, full coverage isn’t always the only answer. Sometimes, a more focused approach delivers the best results — that’s where our PPF Explorer Package comes in.

Designed to defend your car’s most vulnerable and high-contact areas, this package is ideal for everyday drivers who want long-term protection without the need for full vehicle coverage.

What’s Included in the Explorer Package?

The Explorer Package has been specifically created to cover the areas most prone to wear and tear from daily use. It includes high-quality paint protection film (PPF) coverage on:

  • Wing mirrors
  • Door cups
  • Door sills
  • A-pillars and B-pillars

These are the spots that take the brunt of daily use — from fingernails around door handles to belt buckles scuffing sills, or road grime constantly hitting your mirrors and pillars. This package gives targeted protection without altering the look or feel of your car.
✅ You want a cost-effective PPF solution
✅ You’re concerned about specific areas of your vehicle, like side skirts or rear arch areas
✅ You're adding ceramic coating and want to combine the two for smarter maintenance

It’s also a great add-on for anyone who's recently had a new vehicle detailed or ceramic coated, and wants added peace of mind in the most vulnerable zones.


Why Go for the Explorer Package?

This is the ideal solution if you're looking for:

✅ Cost-effective protection for the most commonly damaged areas
✅ A way to reduce micro-scratches, chips, and scuffs in daily use
✅ Discreet, nearly invisible protection that doesn’t interfere with your car’s style
✅ A perfect add-on to ceramic coating or detailing work

Think of it as lightweight armour for your high-contact zones — protecting your vehicle from real-world use without overdoing it for just £360.

Premium Protection with a Flawless Finish

Like all our PPF work, the Explorer Package uses XPEL Ultimate Plus, a premium self-healing film with an ultra-clear finish that blends seamlessly into your paintwork. It’s cut to fit using precision-designed templates, ensuring a clean, professional result every time.

This film is designed to absorb light scratches, resist staining and yellowing, and keep your vehicle looking newer for longer — especially in those areas that typically show signs of age first.

Perfect Partner to Ceramic Coating

While PPF provides physical protection, ceramic coating gives your vehicle a deep gloss and helps repel dirt, water, and contaminants. Many of our clients choose to pair the Explorer Package with a ceramic coating for full-surface protection — impact resistance where it’s needed most, and hydrophobic ease of maintenance everywhere else.

Is It Right for Your Car?

The Explorer Package is great for anyone who wants to protect their investment without going all-in on full-body PPF. It’s especially popular with:

  • Daily drivers
  • Performance and luxury vehicles
  • New car owners looking for protection from the start
  • Used car owners who want to preserve their paintwork

How We Decontaminate Your Paint Before Coating: A Step by Step Breakdown

By Callum Foster • October 27, 2025
At Spotless Detailing, when customers book in for ceramic coating, one of the most common surprises is how much prep goes into the process before the coating even touches the paintwork. Why? Because ceramic coating is only as good as the surface it bonds to. You can have the best coating in the world, but if it’s applied over embedded contaminants or minor paint defects, it won’t perform or last the way it should. That’s why our team puts such a huge focus on prep work and paint decontamination before every ceramic job. Here’s a breakdown of how we make sure your car’s paint is in prime condition before protection begins.

Ceramic Coating vs. PPF - Which Is Right for You?

By Callum Foster • October 21, 2025
When it comes to protecting your car’s paint, there are two standout options: ceramic coating and paint protection film (PPF). Both are designed to help preserve your vehicle’s finish, but they work in very different ways and choosing the right one depends on your car, your driving habits, and your long term goals. At Spotless Detailing, we offer both options at our Perth and Elgin studios, and we’re often asked which is “better.” The truth is, it depends. Here's what you need to know.

Autumn/Winter Car Protection: Why Now’s the Best Time to Act

By Callum Foster • October 14, 2025
As the nights draw in and the temperatures drop, it’s easy to forget what’s happening to your car’s paintwork under the surface. But if there’s ever a time to protect your vehicle, it’s right now, before the salt, grime and winter abuse kicks in. ❄️ Why Protect Now, Not Mid Winter Once the roads are covered in grit, mud and salt, your car is already on the back foot. Applying protection before exposure helps seal the paintwork while it’s still in good condition, not after the damage is done. Salt and grit wear down gloss and increase the risk of corrosion Cold temperatures make contaminants harder to remove once embedded Rain, sleet and frost reduce the visibility of fine scratches until the sun comes out again in spring, and all is revealed
