Rivian and XPEL
Offering Paint Protection Film

Paint Protection Film (PPF) is a transparent urethane film designed to protect your Rivian R1S and R1T exterior from damage caused by scratches, infrared radiation, oxidation, acid rain, bird droppings, etc. It is thicker than regular wrapping film and has specific properties for ultimate paint protection.

PPF is professionally stretched over the vehicle’s bodywork and acts as a barrier between your vehicle’s paint and the elements, as a good Gortex jacket protects you from harmful UV rays, wind, cold, and rain.

By choosing PPF for Rivian R1T or R1S, you save a lot of money on paint correction or respraying. You invest in your e-SUV’s pristine condition. You invest in your ultimate comfort.

When you take your Rivian R1S or R1T out on the road, it’s exposed to potential damage from rock chips, dirt, road debris, and other environmental factors. Without proper protection, these hazards can lead to scratches, paint chips, and other imperfections that mar your vehicle’s appearance and diminish its value.

Rivian Automotive recommends paint protection for their vehicles to ensure they remain in top condition. By choosing the top PPF manufacturer, and the authorized shop, you choose worry-free driving and your investment protection. At Tinting Chicago, we work with the leading brand producing PPF—XPEL. The best thing about XPEL PPFs is that they have a self-healing property: with heat application, minor scratches disappear from the film’s surface!
