## Our Bespoke Protection Services
### 1. Paint Protection Film (PPF) – The Invisible Armor
Given the Magnite’s affordability, full-body PPF may exceed the value proposition. However, **targeted protection** for high-wear areas is highly VFM.
- **Protect the Nose:** The front bumper and prominent grille are stone-chip magnets on highways.
- **Door Sills & Handle Cups:** High-wear zones.
- **Boot Loading Area:** Must protect for the 336-litre boot.
### 2. 9H Ceramic Coating – The 'Showroom Shine' Enhancer
For owners who want that deep, wet showroom look without breaking the bank, a 9H Ceramic Coating is the gold standard. It bonds with the clear coat to provide a durable, hydrophobic layer.
- **9H Hardness:** Sacrificial layer against swirl marks.
- **Hydrophobic Effect:** Rain and mud bead off, making washing much easier.
- **UV Protection:** Prevents the white and silver paint from yellowing.
### 3. Legal Sun Control & Window Films
**Stay Legal, Stay Cool:** Aftermarket dark sun films are banned in India. We strictly use RTO-compliant nano-ceramic films adhering to **70% VLT for windshields and 50% VLT for side windows**.
