Why PPF makes sense here
Miami is hard on paint in two ways. The highways are the first. I-95, the Palmetto, SR 112 and the causeways kick sand and gravel into every front bumper and hood, and that's where chips collect on a daily driver. Full-front film covers exactly those panels.
The second is the heat. Lovebugs, bird droppings and rain spots that dry in the sun can etch bare clear coat. Film and a ceramic coating keep that stuff on the surface, where a hand wash takes it off.
Drive times from around Miami
These are typical-traffic times, not rush hour. If you're coming from the south or west, a morning drop-off beats I-95 at 5 PM.

Common questions
How long will you have my car?
A full front of PPF takes 3 days and a full body takes 7, and the pickup date goes on your work order when you drop off. Window tint is usually done the same day. A ceramic coating needs 1 to 3 days, longer if the paint needs heavy correction, because the coating has to cure before the car goes back outside.
How much does paint protection film cost in Miami?
At OTOHAUZ, full-front PPF starts from $2,500 and covers the hood, front bumper, fenders, headlights and mirror caps. Full-body PPF starts from $6,000. Our track package starts from $3,500 and adds the A-pillars, a roof strip, the rockers and the impact areas on the rear quarters. Your exact price depends on the car and the finish.
Is PPF worth it in Miami?
If you drive I-95, the Palmetto or the causeways, your front end takes a steady hit from sand and gravel. PPF takes those chips instead of your paint, and its top coat heals light scratches with heat. On a car you plan to keep, or sell in good shape, that's the whole point: the factory paint stays factory.
Can PPF change the color or finish of my car?
Yes. Clear film keeps the factory look. Satin or matte PPF turns a gloss car flat, and it still protects the paint. Want a new color too? Color PPF does both in one film.
Should I get PPF or a ceramic coating?
They do different jobs. PPF is a physical film that stops rock chips and scratches. A ceramic coating is a hard, slick layer that makes the car easier to clean and protects against water spots and bird droppings, but it won't stop a rock. Many owners do both: film on the front or the whole car, and a coating on top.
What is windshield PPF and how much is it?
It's a clear film over the windshield that absorbs rock impacts so the glass doesn't chip or crack. It's $650 at OTOHAUZ. It matters most on newer cars, where a replacement windshield with cameras and sensors costs a lot more and needs recalibration.
