Case Study: Range Rover SV Edition One – PPF Removal and Refit After Poor Installation
This case study is a clear example of why you should always trust a professional for Paint Protection Film installation. Our regular customer purchased a 2024 Range Rover Sport SV Edition One and, due to our waiting list, initially took it to a local detailer with no specialist PPF training. The result was a poor installation with low-quality film, inaccurate patterns, and visible knife cuts in the paint. Adhesion promoter was used on nearly every panel, showing a lack of experience and damaging the finish. Once we had a slot available, we carefully removed all the old film, corrected the defects, and installed high-quality PPF using precise patterns and safe, professional techniques. The finished car looks flawless and is now properly protected.
- Careful removal of previous poor PPF install
- Paintwork inspected and minor damage corrected
- Full-body high-quality PPF refitted with accurate, safe patterns
- No knives used on paint, no excess adhesive or promoters needed
- 3-day turnaround at our Bradford studio
"The difference is night and day. The old film was lifting, yellowing, and had knife marks. Lucid PPF made the car look new again. Lesson learned: always wait for the pros."

Case Study FAQ
Can poor PPF installations be removed without damaging paint?
Yes, with professional techniques and tools, old PPF can be safely removed and any minor defects can be corrected before new film is fitted.
Why is it risky to let non-specialists fit PPF?
Untrained installers may use poor-quality film, cut on the car, or apply too much adhesive, all of which can lead to damage and poor protection.
How long does a proper PPF removal and refit take?
Most complete removal and refit jobs are finished in 2-4 days, depending on the condition of the car and the film used.
