Crystal Shell is an independent automotive paint protection film (PPF) brand and supplier, created by professional installers and car enthusiasts in Canada. We design and deliver self-healing polyurethane paint protection film (clear bra) for new cars, daily drivers, performance vehicles, SUVs, trucks, and commercial fleets.
What started as a small garage experiment grew into a full R&D effort to build a self-healing TPU film that can survive real-world use in Canadian winters, coastal humidity, and high-UV regions.
Our founders visited PPF and polyurethane factories across Japan, South Korea, China, and Europe, testing different aliphatic TPU chemistries in desert heat, alpine cold, and coastal humidity. In simple terms, we focused on TPU that stays flexible, doesn’t yellow, and keeps the paint looking new.
The goal was simple: a car paint protection film that stays optically clear, resists etching and staining from road grime and bird droppings, and is actually pleasant for professional installers to work with.
After hundreds of iterations we combined:
Working side-by-side with materials scientists and OEM finish engineers, we built Crystal Shell PPF — a film that stays invisible on the car, heals light scratches with heat, and protects daily-driven and high-performance vehicles alike.
Today our production partners operate state-of-the-art roll-to-roll coating lines in facilities that follow ISO-certified quality management systems for paint protection film manufacturing. Every batch of Crystal Shell PPF is checked for optical clarity, thickness, tensile strength, impact resistance, and UV aging before it leaves the factory.
From our logistics hub in Toronto, we supply professional installers and detailing studios across North America, ensuring they receive fresh PPF inventory with full batch traceability on every order.
Crystal Shell is built first for professional PPF installers, wrap shops, and detailing studios. We provide more than just film — we support complete paint protection services:
Whether you're wrapping a hypercar, a daily commuter, or an entire fleet, you have access to expert coaches and training resources that help you deliver consistent, high-quality PPF installs.
Our partnership ecosystem includes detailing studios, body shops, tint specialists, new-car dealerships, and fleet operators. Each account receives tailored pricing, co-branded campaigns, and growth planning designed to make Crystal Shell PPF a reliable profit center.
Research never stops. Crystal Shell labs continuously evaluate new anti-etch and anti-stain top-coat chemistries, adaptive hydrophobic layers for easier washing, and more sustainable TPU feedstocks for future generations of paint protection film.
Our roadmap covers advanced matte PPF finishes, color-change protection films, and smart diagnostics that monitor film health over time. Every new Crystal Shell PPF series goes through field testing with our master installers before launch to ensure it performs in both high-volume shops and boutique studios.
From the first roll you order to the hundredth location you open, Crystal Shell is positioned as your long-term PPF partner in Canada and beyond. We help you plan PPF inventory, train new installers, launch local campaigns, and analyze performance so you see real gains in customer satisfaction, referrals, and long-term retention.
Installers stay with Crystal Shell because they don’t just get a self-healing paint protection film — they get a partner focused on helping their PPF business grow in Canada.
Talk with Our TeamCrystal Shell is a Canadian automotive paint protection film (PPF) brand based in Toronto, Ontario, serving professional installers across North America.
Crystal Shell PPF is built for professional PPF installers, wrap and tint shops, detailing studios, body shops, new-car dealerships, and fleet operators. Our focus is strictly B2B, helping shops turn paint protection into a stable, high-value service rather than a one-off add-on.
Crystal Shell is based in Toronto, Canada and serves installer partners throughout Canada and the United States. We ship PPF from our Toronto logistics hub, maintaining consistent stock levels and providing batch and lot information with every shipment so shops always know exactly what film series they are installing.
Most generic paint protection films are built to look good on a spec sheet. Crystal Shell PPF is built to perform on real cars, in real shops, in real weather. Our series are tuned for North American conditions—from salted winter roads to hot, high-UV summers—so installers don’t have to fight unexpected behavior on the car.
Every Crystal Shell PPF series goes through both laboratory and field testing before it reaches installers. In the lab we measure optical clarity, thickness, tensile strength, impact performance, and UV aging. In the field our master installers validate handling, stretch behavior, self-healing response, and long-term appearance on real vehicles in different climates.
