Three ways to protect it.

Film, gloss, and tint. Most Tesla owners end up combining all three. Here's exactly what each one does and what's included.

Film

Paint Protection Film

Teslas come from the factory with thin, soft paint that can start chipping the moment you hit the highway. Our paint protection film adds a clear, self-healing layer over the panels that take the most hits. That way rock chips, sand, and road salt hit the film instead of your paint. Go with a partial front for the key spots, or full-body coverage to protect the whole car. Available in shiny gloss or stealth matte.

  • Clear, self-healing film
  • Partial front to full-body
  • Gloss or stealth matte
  • Up to a 10-year warranty

Gloss

Ceramic Coating

A System X ceramic coating bonds to the paint and locks in a deep, glossy finish that beads water and shrugs off dirt. Your Tesla stays cleaner between washes, resists swirls and water spots, and keeps that just-detailed look for years. Every coating starts with a full paint correction, so we seal in flawless paint instead of the swirls it came with.

  • System X ceramic protection
  • Paint correction included
  • Hydrophobic, easy-clean finish
  • Years of gloss and UV defense

Tint

Window Tint

Ceramic window tint does far more than darken the glass. It rejects a large share of the sun's heat so your cabin stays cooler and the battery works less to keep up, blocks over 99% of the UV rays that fade and crack your interior, and cuts glare on long drives. Dialed-in shades for every window, backed by a lifetime warranty.

  • Heat-rejecting ceramic tint
  • Blocks 99%+ of UV rays
  • Less glare, cooler cabin
  • Backed by a lifetime warranty
Why Tesla owners

Why Tesla owners trust Detail Tech.

Know Teslas inside out

From the soft factory paint to the sensors and camera placement, we know the quirks of every model and protect them accordingly.

The full stack, one shop

PPF, ceramic coating, and window tint under one roof. Your Tesla gets protected the right way, in the right order, by the same crew.

Certified, not guessing

We're System X certified and Legend PPF authorized. Real credentials and real warranties, not a guy in a garage.

We protect a lot of them

Model 3, Y, S, X, and Cybertruck. Teslas are one of the most common cars on our floor, and we know how to get them dialed.

The smart setup

PPF up front. Ceramic over the top.

The setup most Tesla owners land on is paint protection film on the high-impact areas, then a ceramic coating over the whole car. The film takes the physical hits, and the ceramic adds gloss and makes washing easy. Tint the windows to cut the heat, and the car is dialed in. We'll help you build the right combination for how you drive and how long you're keeping it.

Amazing work by these fellas. I had them do my car first. They did such a good job, I sent them over my wife's car too. We trusted them with both our brand new EVs (2026 Tesla Model Y and 2025 Chevy Blazer EV). They installed front PPF, applied ceramic, and tinted our windows. We called around other places nearby including some really big names but after speaking with Kevin and Dan, these fellas know what they're doing. I'd definitely recommend this place and will take my cars here again.

I brought in my 2026 Tesla Model Y for full front end, all 4 doors and windshield with PPF and ceramic coating. My wife and I are very pleased with the results. Our vehicle looks amazing!! We are very convinced on how truly genuine and honest people can be. We never felt any pressure on choosing any of the services you offer. We will definitely be back for more business to take care of my fleet of vehicles. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BUSINESS for all of vehicle detailing needs!!! Kevin, Dan and the entire Detail Tech Team thank you for a job well done!

They benefit a lot from it. Tesla paint is on the softer side and chips easily, and the front end is exposed, so film makes a real difference in keeping it looking new.

They do different jobs. PPF is a physical shield against chips and scratches. Ceramic is a chemical layer for gloss and easy cleaning. A lot of owners do both, PPF up front and ceramic over the top.

All of them. Model 3, Model Y, Model S, Model X, and Cybertruck.

Yes, we tint Teslas, and we'll walk you through options for the windows and the roof to cut heat and glare.

It depends on the service and coverage. Tell us your Tesla and what you want, and we'll give you a real timeline with your quote.

Kevin patiently, thoroughly, and clearly reviewed the protection options for our new vehicle in a no pressure manner. We opted for full vehicle application of PPF followed by ceramic coating and an interior protection application. Our specific requests, including a delayed pick up, were accommodated. When we picked up the vehicle yesterday, it looked amazing! We are extremely happy with our decision and definitely feel it was money well spent. Additionally, it was nice to deal with a business that kept us updated, followed through on everything they said, and we didn't need to have anything redone.
