### General Protection Advice (All Models)
Regardless of the model you own, these protection principles apply:
| Protection Type | Recommended For | Key Benefit |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Paint Protection Film (PPF)** | New Mercedes-Benz vehicles (especially dark colours like Obsidian Black, Selenite Grey) | Self-healing protection against stone chips, swirl marks, and road debris |
| **9H Ceramic Coating** | All models, particularly light colours (Polar White, Cirrus White) | Hydrophobic effect, UV protection, enhanced gloss, easier cleaning |
| **Legal Window Film (70%/50% VLT)** | All models with large glass areas (E-Class, S-Class, GLS, EQE/EQS) | Heat rejection, UV protection, preserves interior leather |
| **Screen Protector** | Models with MBUX Hyperscreen or large central displays (S-Class, EQS, EQE, C-Class) | Prevents fingerprints and micro-scratches |
| **Interior PPF** | Models with extensive piano black trim | Prevents micro-scratches on high-gloss surfaces |
### Mercedes-Benz Paint Characteristics
Mercedes-Benz uses high-quality clear coats that are durable but can be prone to swirl marks from improper washing. Dark colours (Obsidian Black, Cavansite Blue) show imperfections more visibly and benefit greatly from PPF or ceramic coating.
