In an industry where pop-up shops come and go, Paint Defender has stood as Montgomery’s authority on automotive preservation for over 19 years.
We don’t just stick film on cars. We are Surface Engineers. Whether it’s a daily-driven Tesla Model Y or a Ferrari 812 GTS, we apply XPEL Ultimate Plus with surgical precision. Our installers utilize the XPEL DAP (Design Access Program) to customize patterns specifically for your VIN—extending edges to wrap around panels whenever possible for a seamless, invisible finish that standard ‘kit’ installations can’t match
The industry standard. Matches your factory clear coat perfectly, disappearing onto the paint while providing a self-healing barrier against rock chips.
The ultimate shield for satin finishes.
For Factory Matte Paint: This 2021 Ferrari 812 GTS features factory Grigio Matte paint. Like all ‘Frozen’ or Magno finishes, it cannot be buffed if scratched. XPEL Stealth is critical armor that locks in the pristine condition of the paint without altering its unique sheen.
For Gloss Cars: Stealth can also transform standard gloss paint into this stunning Satin look without the hassle of a vinyl wrap.
The evolution of color change. Unlike thin vinyl wraps that scratch easily, Colored PPF offers 8-mil thick, self-healing protection in deep, high-gloss colors like Miami Blue or Nardo Grey. It looks like wet paint, not a sticker
We have curated these protection packages based on over 19 years of experience with Alabama roads. Whether you need essential frontal defense for daily commuting or complete coverage for track use, we have a solution tailored to your vehicle.
Standard Pricing: Prices below reflect standard vehicles (e.g., Tesla Model 3/Y, BMW 3 Series) in Gloss Clear.
Exotics & Trucks: Larger or more complex vehicles may vary slightly.
Stealth & Color Change: Please add roughly 10% for XPEL Stealth or Colored PPF packages. These films require higher material costs and additional labor for custom edge-wrapping to ensure the original paint color is fully concealed.
We use XPEL’s DAP (Design Access Program) Software, but we don’t just hit ‘print.’ We manually customize every pattern to extend edges, allowing us to wrap the film around the hood and fenders wherever possible.
This ‘Custom-Fit’ approach hides the seams that standard kit installs leave visible, creating a cleaner, invisible shield that looks like it came from the factory.
No. We use XPEL Ultimate Plus, which features non-yellowing, UV-stable technology. It is backed by a 10-year warranty against yellowing, staining, and delaminating.
Absolutely. Love bug acid can etch clear coat in hours. PPF provides a chemical-resistant barrier that prevents the acid from touching your paint.
Think of it as a “Sacrificial Layer.” While it isn’t literally bulletproof, it is designed to absorb the impact energy of rocks and debris so your paint doesn’t have to. If a large rock hits it, the film might damage, but your factory paint underneath often survives unscathed.
We recommend hand washing or touchless washes. However, the film is durable enough for automatic washes, though frequent use may introduce swirl marks (which the film will self-heal over time with heat).
EXCELLENT Based on 214 reviews Posted on Jonathan HidalgoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great prices, friendly service, and outstanding job on my window tint!Posted on Russell LedfordTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Called this morning for an estimate on a tint job, the price was more than reasonable so I scheduled an appointment, for the same day! Drop off was a breeze, in and out…then I received a text message a couple hours later when the work was complete, so I returned to pick it up, and the work was amazing. The service beginning to end was equally as impressive, I’ll definitely be back and give referrals without hesitation.Posted on Roberto lopezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Definitely recommend these guys. We had all of our windows for our 2025 Toyota Highlander tinted. The difference was night and day. Ken and his staff were professional, and the quality of work was impeccable. Don't just take my word "go check them out". Thank you all for your time, professionalism, and customer service.Posted on Richard VaughnTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

I highly recommend this business.Posted on Russ BreedTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. They are the best in town. I have been there twice. I was here again today 12/5/24 they are the best.Posted on Eric AndersonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I worked with, Ray. I think that was his name. Extremely professional, nice, and most importantly competent. He did an outstanding job on a vehicle with gum mashed into seats and floor boards and mats. This guy can clean anything, my opinion, you bring him. Fantastic customer service...11 outta 10
