Paint Protection Film

Self-Healing
High-Impact Protection
Optically Clear

Paint protection film provides a durable, nearly invisible barrier against rock chips, road debris, scratches, bug etching and other damage that would otherwise reach the factory paint. Its self-healing surface helps light swirls and marks disappear when exposed to heat while maintaining the color, clarity and finish beneath it.

Red Box Restoration installs premium paint protection film using vehicle-specific patterns and professional installation techniques. Coverage ranges from high-impact front-end packages and track-focused protection to complete full-body installations. Panels are carefully prepared, film is precisely positioned and edges are wrapped wherever practical for a clean, refined result.

Available options include clear gloss, matte and color-change paint protection films, with manufacturer warranty coverage available according to the selected material.

Paint Correction

Swirl Removal
Multi-Stage Refinement
Restored Clarity

Paint correction is the controlled machine-polishing process used to reduce swirl marks, wash-induced marring, oxidation, holograms, light scratches and other defects that prevent the finish from displaying its full depth and clarity.

Every vehicle begins with a careful inspection followed by a proper wash and decontamination process. Each panel is then refined using professional polishing equipment, compounds and techniques selected for the condition of the paint and the desired outcome. Fresh polishing pads and clean microfiber towels are used for every vehicle to prevent cross-contamination and maintain consistent results.

Services range from a one-step paint enhancement for light imperfections to a two-stage correction for moderate defects and a comprehensive three-stage correction for heavily marred, collector or show-level finishes. Wet sanding and targeted defect removal are available by consultation when the paint system and project allow.

Ceramic Coatings

Long-Term Protection
Enhanced Gloss
Easier Maintenance

Ceramic coating creates a durable, hydrophobic layer that chemically bonds to the prepared surface. It enhances depth and gloss while helping protect against ultraviolet exposure, road grime, environmental contamination and chemical staining. The slick surface also reduces contamination buildup and makes routine washing and drying considerably easier.

Every coating installation begins with proper surface preparation, including washing, chemical and mechanical decontamination and paint correction where needed. The coating is then carefully applied and leveled in a controlled environment before the vehicle is inspected under specialized lighting to confirm even coverage and finish quality.

Protection is available for paint, paint protection film, wheels, exterior glass and interior surfaces. Multiple coating levels are available based on the vehicle, intended use and desired term of protection.

Vinyl Wraps, Graphics and Liveries

Color Change
Custom Graphics
Reversible Transformation

Vinyl wrap provides a flexible and reversible way to transform the appearance of a vehicle without committing to a permanent repaint. Choose from gloss, satin, matte, metallic, textured and specialty finishes, or work with our team to develop custom stripes, graphics, decals and complete racing liveries.

Each project begins with a consultation to establish the desired finish, design direction and installation scope. Custom designs and renderings can be developed before production so placement, scale and colors can be reviewed before installation begins.

The vehicle is thoroughly cleaned and prepared before the film is installed with careful attention to alignment, body lines, seams and edges. Because paint condition and previous repairs can affect installation and future removal, the existing finish is evaluated before work begins.

Detailing and Vehicle Care

Safe Washing
Deep Cleaning
Ongoing Preservation

Detailing is where Red Box Restoration began. Our services go beyond a basic wash by safely cleaning, decontaminating and preserving the exterior and interior surfaces of the vehicle using professional products, equipment and techniques.

Maintenance services include pH-balanced hand washing, careful drying, wheel and caliper cleaning, tire treatment, vacuuming, glass cleaning and light interior care. More comprehensive packages add exterior decontamination, leather cleaning and conditioning, detailed interior agitation, carpet and upholstery extraction, engine-bay cleaning, odor treatment and final inspection under high-intensity lighting.

Whether the vehicle needs routine upkeep, seasonal revitalization, pre-sale preparation or a complete interior and exterior reset, the service is tailored to its condition and intended use.

Wheels and Tires

Custom Fitment
Refinishing
Protection

The right wheel and tire package can completely change a vehicle's appearance, stance and driving character. Red Box Restoration helps clients select the proper wheel size, offset, finish and tire specification to achieve the desired look while maintaining appropriate clearance, fitment and functionality.

Services include wheel and tire sourcing, custom fitment consultation, professional mounting and balancing, center-lock handling, wheel repair and refinishing coordination, custom finishes and wheels-off ceramic protection.

Every installation is completed with attention to vehicle-specific mounting procedures and final fitment. Where specialized repair or finishing is required, Red Box Restoration manages the project through trusted specialty partners and remains the client's point of contact from removal through final installation.

Specialty Automotive Installations

Aero
Appearance Components
Vehicle-Specific Upgrades

Red Box Restoration also installs select exterior and appearance components, including carbon-fiber aero, spoilers, splitters, side skirts, emblems, lighting upgrades and other vehicle-specific accessories.

Each component is inspected and test-fitted before installation to verify alignment, clearance and compatibility with the vehicle. Mounting surfaces are prepared, required panels or trim are carefully removed where necessary and all components are securely installed and inspected for proper fit and finish.

Projects requiring drilling, trimming, custom brackets, wiring, fabrication or correction of manufacturer-related fitment issues are evaluated and approved before additional work is performed.
