Interior trim, protected before the first scratch.

Interior plastic wears first: door cards, console surrounds, dash trim, pillar caps. SalonShield is a black textured film that takes the scratches instead of the plastic, and leaves worn panels looking factory again. Sold by the roll to shops that do the work themselves.

02 · What you get on the panel


Protection

Holds up to daily use

3H pencil hardness under ASTM D3363-05. 15.1 mg of wear after 1,000 abrasion cycles under ISO 9352. Ask for the full datasheet.

Application

Easy to work

It stretches under heat and keeps its texture, so it lays into curves without the pattern distorting. Overstretch it and the finish goes glossy — heat it again and the matte comes back.

Memory correction

Fewer callbacks

Heat it again and the film relaxes. That takes the tension out of edges and seams — the usual reason a job comes back.

03 · Install in one sitting


Three steps, one sitting

  1. Prep — degrease the part and dry it.
  2. Apply — peel the backing carefully and lay the film onto the part. Help it into complex contours with a heat gun, but go gently. Trim the excess with a knife.
  3. Cure & inspect — squeegee flat and check the part under raking light before you hand the car back. Full adhesion develops within 24 hours.
