Protective Film (PPF) by JustCars

A protective film is the quietest, hardest-working layer on a valuable car — it takes the stone chips, gravel rash and swirl marks so your paint stays protected. JustCars is a premium Algarve car studio fitting STEK paint protection film across the golden triangle, with a fixed price locked in at inspection, before any work starts and concierge pickup for villa and resort clients. We work for the result.

What protective film actually does

Paint protection film is a clear, self-healing layer laid over your car's paint. On Algarve roads — fine coastal grit, gravel driveways and strong sun — the front end, mirrors, sills and leading edges take most of the damage. The film absorbs that so the paint underneath keeps its original colour and depth. Our STEK film is ceramic-coated, which adds a hydrophobic top layer that keeps the surface easier to clean and looking sharp.

It is protection you can rely on, backed by a 10-year manufacturer warranty and a 1-year JustCars installation warranty on the STEK film we're certified to fit.

Oleg ZugravyyFounder, JustCars — 17+ years with cars

“A kitchen counter and a gloss bonnet fail the same way — micro-scratches that slowly kill the surface. The film I trust on cars is the film I put on glass and furniture in a home.”

STEK film, certification and a registered trademark

JustCars is a STEK-certified centre for protective film, and our STEK film is ceramic-coated with a 10-year manufacturer warranty and a 1-year JustCars installation warranty. Alongside PPF, we are an official RestorFX centre and hold credentials from the WRAP Institute, Colourlock, Geist and Rupes, having trained with the Detailing Academy Portugal as Certified Detailers.

Our name is a registered trademark in Portugal and across the EU — a simple, verifiable mark of who you are trusting your car to. Behind the studio sits 17+ years of master experience.

How the protective film process works

It starts on WhatsApp — send us the car and what you want protected, and we reply in seconds. We agree the coverage (full front, extended, or full body), then the car comes in to one of our two studios. We decontaminate and correct the paint first, so the film goes over a properly prepared surface, then fit the STEK film panel by panel with wrapped edges for a near-invisible finish.

You get a clear plan before we start and honest advice on the coverage that suits how you actually use the car — with a fixed price locked in at inspection, before any work starts.

Concierge pickup & delivery

For villa and resort clients across the golden triangle — Quinta do Lago, Vale do Lobo and Vilamoura — you don't need to bring the car anywhere. We collect it, carry out the work at the studio, and return it to your door. Intake is WhatsApp-first, so it's a couple of messages and it's arranged.

JustCars runs two equal branches, in Almancil and in Loulé, so you can choose whichever suits your schedule best. We also serve Quarteira, Almancil, Loulé and Faro.

Protective film pricing

Protective film at JustCars is from €1500, with the final figure depending on the car and how much coverage you want — from front-end protection through to full body. Send us the model on WhatsApp and we'll come back with a straight answer in seconds, with a fixed price locked in at inspection, before any work starts.

Whatever the package, you get ceramic-coated STEK film and the 10-year manufacturer warranty and a 1-year JustCars installation warranty behind it.

Trust, honestly earned

Premium, calm and precise is how we work — a studio set up to protect, not just polish, the most valuable cars in the Algarve. When you message us you're talking to JustCars directly, and we reply in seconds.

A huge thank you to you and your team! My car has never looked so clean! Just Cars did an amazing job making my car look brand new. It was full of sand, dirt, food — everything the kids could possibly put in it, and years since its last proper detail. Just Cars was amazing. A huge thank you!!
