Protect a brand-new flagship without ever dulling the red.
The owner wanted invisible armour: a finish that resisted ten years of road debris yet read, under any light, as untouched factory paint. No orange-peel, no edges, no compromise on the Rosso Corsa.
We took the car before its first wash. Every panel was measured, corrected to remove transit marring, then wrapped in self-healing film cut to a custom pattern — and sealed under ceramic for a single, uninterrupted depth.

Decontamination & measurement
Taken before its first wash. Every panel hand-decontaminated, then mapped with a paint-depth gauge and photographed under controlled light to log its as-delivered state.
Single-stage correction
Transit marring and faint installer swirls refined out by hand — just enough to reach a flawless base for film, never thinning the factory clear coat.
Custom-cut PPF, panel by panel
Self-healing film laid to a bespoke pattern with wrapped edges — no visible seams at the bonnet shut-lines, mirrors or sills. The slowest, most exacting phase of the build.
Nine-year ceramic seal
Two ceramic layers cured over the film for a single, uninterrupted depth and a hydrophobic surface that rinses clean. Gloss measured at 96 GU on final inspection.
Inspection & sign-off
Re-checked under the same lights it arrived in, photographed for the owner record, and the nine-year warranty signed by the craftsman who did the work.

Everything we believe about ceramic coating, paint protection film, correction and detailing — the long version, for the people who actually read it.

Protection is a decision, not a product.
Most owners arrive with a single question — will it still look like this in five years? The honest answer is longer than any price list, because a great finish is never one product. It is a sequence of decisions made under controlled light, by hands that have read thousands of panels.
At Motorskin we begin by measuring the paint, not selling to it. Only once we know what is actually there do we choose the right armour: a ceramic coating for depth and chemistry, self-healing paint protection film where the road throws stones, or a meticulous detail when a car simply needs to remember what new felt like.
Why correction comes before everything.
A coating or film locks in whatever lies beneath it — so any swirl, hologram or wash mark left in the clear coat is sealed in permanently. That is why paint correction is never optional for us. Under our lights we refine the surface to a single, uninterrupted reflection before a drop of ceramic is ever applied.
The depth you see afterwards comes as much from that correction as from the coating itself. Skip it, and you have merely preserved the flaws. Do it properly, and the car reads deeper than the day it left the factory.
Coating, film, or both.
A nine-year ceramic coating gives a hard, hydrophobic surface: water sheets away carrying dirt with it, UV and chemical stains are held off the paint, and washing becomes a rinse rather than a ritual. Paint protection film answers a different threat — the physical one. Cut to a custom pattern with wrapped edges, its self-healing layer takes stone chips and light scratches the road will always throw.
On the cars that matter most, we combine them: film over the high-impact panels, ceramic over the whole body for a single, seamless depth. One protects against the world; the other makes it shine.
One car at a time, in Nice.
We work by appointment from a sealed, light-controlled atelier on the Côte d'Azur — one car in the bay at a time, finished by the same craftsman from first measurement to final inspection. Ferrari, Porsche, Rolls-Royce or the everyday car you happen to love: the badge changes, the standard never does.
Every project is photographed, logged and guaranteed in writing — because the only finish worth talking about is the one still holding years after you have forgotten we ever touched it.
