STEK DYNO Series
Paint protection film with the best hydrophobicity, gloss, and clarity.
Unmatched Hydrophobicity
Unlike other paint protection films on the market – including 3M's Scotchgard or XPEL's Ultimate Plus – STEK's DYNO series films have an exceptional ability to sheet water and resist contamination and staining.
Ultra Gloss Finish
When it comes to gloss and clarity, no other clear bra can compete with STEK DYNOshield. Thanks to its proprietary topcoat, DYNOshield has unparalleled clarity and gloss – making it the most advanced automotive paint protection film on the market.
Heat-Activated Self-Healing Top Coat
It sounds too good to be true but self-healing is real – making paint protection films one of the must-have automotive aftermarket products. Technically speaking, self-healing is the ability of the topcoat to rearrange its surface morphology when exposed to a heat source or simply to the sun. The rearrangement takes place at the microscopic level, which levels or entirely disappears the surface scratches and mars.
Stain and Chemical Resistant
The proprietary HYDROphobe® top coat not only sheet water, run off the dirt, and keep your car clean, but also prevents the etching from bird droppings, tree saps, and bug acids.
Puncture and Impact Resistant
10 Year Warranty
Best Form of Paint Protection
Did you know that automotive paint protection films are 5 to 7 times thicker than the clear coat of an average car? Combined with excellent impact resistance, shock absorbance, and self-healing properties, paint protection film – also known as Clear Bra – is the best form of protection you can have against rocks chips, flying debris, scratching, staining, and environmental hazards.
Best Clear Bra Installation in Dallas
For a perfect PPF installation, experience is a must but not enough. A perfect installation requires utilizing unconventional equipment and following specific procedures so as to eliminate conditions that give rise to errors and imperfections. Our operations differentiate from the other clear bra installers in Dallas Forth Worth in a variety of ways. Our in-house-built jib crane is one of them. We believe that with conventional installation tools, such as spray bottles or kegs, a perfect installation is possible but never repeatable. For this reason, we design, develop and build our own equipment, making perfect installations possible and sustainable.
Not All Paint Protection Films Are the Same
When installed on automotive surfaces, paint protection film, aka Clear Bra, creates an invisible layer of protection against rock chips, scratches, etching (from bird droppings, tree saps, bug splatters, etc.), and a wide variety of environmental and incidental hazards.
Paint protection film was first developed by 3M for the U.S. Army during Vietnam War. The initial goal was to protect helicopter rotor blades and sensitive parts from flying debris and shrapnel. In the 1980s, people started to see the benefits of films in non-military applications, including race car wrapping, and in the 1990s, paint protection film started to become very popular among car enthusiasts and luxury cars owners.
The first-generation films were quite successful in protecting automotive surfaces from rock chips and road debris; however, there was a problem – the films' adhesives were not resistant to UV, resulting in film yellowing and cracking. With the advancements in adhesive and top-coat technology, non-yellowing and self-healing films were introduced to the market, which we consider today second-generation. The introduction of the self-healing feature was especially a milestone for the paint protection industry, as the films started to deliver the best of both worlds to the customers – providing excellent protection against rock chips, road debris, and scratching without any compromise in aesthetics.
In the early 2010s, ceramic coatings were introduced to the market and semi-permanent hydrophobicity became a much more sought-after property for car owners. In the late 2010s, using ceramic coatings to enhance the hydrophobicity of paint protection films became almost an industry-standard – as it was the only way to achieve semi-permanent hydrophobicity on a wrapped car – up until when the South Korean manufacturer STEK Automotive disrupted the market by introducing the first-ever intrinsically-hydrophobic paint protection film, STEK DYNO series.
We believe that this is a new milestone for the industry, as this new type of film repels water and dirt unlike any other film on the market and makes maintenance easier.
Following STEK's revolutionary film, Eastman recently introduced a similar film called SunTek Reaction. According to our best knowledge, the other major manufacturers' films – including 3M's Scotchgard and XPEL's Ultimate Plus – are not on par with STEK's DYNO and Eastman's SunTek Reaction series films.
At CeramicFX, STEK's DYNO series is our primary choice of paint protection film, as it differentiates from the competition with its clarity, gloss and hydrophobicity.

5 Reasons Why Clear Bra Is Almost a Must in DFW
Growth Rate and Construction
Trucks and trailers carrying construction and earth materials are the main sources of rocks and debris on the highways. As a result of its growth, DFW roads are occupied with more trucks than any other metro area in the U.S. – resulting in more flying debris on the roads. Combined with the high speed of traffic and less level of congestion, your brand new car's paint can chip much sooner in North Texas highways, if not wrapped with a paint protection film.
Heavy Duty and Lifted Trucks
Vehicles have fenders for a reason; to keep the rocks and debris inside the wheel well. But not all vehicles are equal when it comes to the function of their fenders. The fenders of trucks (especially lifted trucks) enclose the wheels much less than that of a car, meaning; if you are cruising behind a truck, the risk of getting hit by rocks and flying debris is relatively higher.
Traffic Flow Speed
Dallas Fort Worth has one of the best highway systems in the nation. Compared to other metro areas in the U.S. – including Los Angeles, New York, or San Francisco – DFW highways have a low level of congestion and a higher speed of traffic, contributing to more flying debris on the highways.
UV Oxidation
Paint protection films do not have UV inhibitors (to prevent uneven aging of the base coat), but they prevent UV oxidation of the clear coat, as it creates a barrier between the oxygen in the air and the paint surface.
Fall-Outs
DFW is not only a logistic hub for humans but it is a hub for birds during migration season. Paint protection films provide excellent protection against bird droppings, tree saps, and bug splatters.
Full Front or Full Body Wrapping, Which One Is Better for You?
Rock chips
Both Full Front and Full Body wrapping provide excellent protection against rocks chips and flying debris.
Incidental scratching
Full Body wrapping protects the entire body from incidental scratching.
Car wash scratching
With Full Body wrapping, you do not have to worry about car wash scratches and use drive-thru car wash places .

Full Body wrapping gives you the opportunity to change the texture of your vehicle's paint, e.g. from gloss to matte.
Color change
Full Body wrapping gives you the opportunity to change the color of your vehicle.

Maintenance
With a full-body wrap, you can get your car washed more often without having to worry about car wash scratches. If your car does not have a full-body wrap, we do not recommend tunnel wash.

More Than a Paint Protection
In the last 30 years, paint protection films have gone a long way towards meeting cars owners' needs. Originally developed as a protective film, today's paint protection films are more versatile than ever – giving vehicle owners the opportunity to customize the look of their vehicles.
When it comes to color change, vinyl wrapping can be one of your options, however, we should also note that, in technical terms, vinyl is not an alternative to PPF.
While there are colored and textured paint protection films on the market, the number of color options is not as many as vinyl. This is the only strength of vinyl over PPF, but if the limited color option is not an issue, PPF should be your choice.
Clear Bra
With its high-gloss, matte, and glitter finish options, our DYNO series transparent films offer class-leading hydrophobicity, impact resistance, self-healing and durability.
Colored PPF
There is no better way to change the color of your car (full-body or panel wrap) with colored PPF. It is way more shock-resistant and durable than vinyl.
Patterned PPF
Patterned films revolutionized the PPF industry, as they offer an eye-catching style, stunning custom look, stellar performance, unmatched durability, and ease of maintenance.
