Protecting a 2026 BMW M3: Track-Ready with PPF & Ceramic Coating at ZAutoCare
When the owner of this brand-new 2026 BMW M3 brought it to ZAutoCare, he had one clear priority: protection. After a detailed consultation—discussing his driving habits, concerns, and budget—we developed the ideal solution tailored to his needs.
The Game Plan: Protection Without Compromise
With plans to enjoy the M3 both on the street and the occasional track day visit, we recommended our Track Package Paint Protection Film (PPF) paired with a complete exterior ceramic coating. To finish it off, we also included interior leather coating for long-lasting protection inside the cabin.
Step 1: Wash, Decontamination & Paint Correction
We began the process with a full wash and decontamination in our dedicated wash bay. This is a crucial first step to remove any bonded contaminants and prepare the surface for polishing.
Next came paint correction—refining the factory paintwork to eliminate any light imperfections and bring out a flawless finish before sealing it in.
Step 2: PPF Installation for Track-Ready Defense
Once the paint was perfected, we installed high-impact PPF on key areas prone to chips and damage—giving the owner peace of mind whether carving canyons or hitting the track. This film acts as a physical barrier against stone chips, scratches, and road debris.
Step 3: Ceramic Coating—Top to Bottom
With the PPF in place, we did a final surface prep to ensure everything was residue-free and ready for coating. We then applied our Gtechniq protection system, including:
Crystal Serum Light + EXOv5: A durable, high-gloss ceramic coating duo for all exterior painted surfaces.
G1 Smart Glass: For enhanced visibility and water repellency on all glass and mirror surfaces.
C5 Wheel Armour: Protects wheels and brake calipers from brake dust, grime, and road contaminants.
L1 Leather Guard: Shields interior leather from UV damage, spills, and everyday wear.
Final Result: Ready for the Road—or the Track
This M3 now has the ultimate protection package—built to perform and stay looking its best, whether cruising city streets or tearing up the track.
At ZAutoCare, we don't just detail cars—we protect your passion.
