PPF and ceramic coatings are sometimes sold as silver bullets, cure-alls or miracle technology that will stop an asteroid. As much as we would like them to be, they aren’t, but when shown what they can do we’re continually impressed by their strength and resiliency.

Will there ever be that last great high-horsepower, manual transmission, front-engine, rear-wheel driven sedan? We keep hearing about manuals going by the wayside, but new ones keep popping up. Not that we’re complaining or anything, but if this is the last from General Motors, what a way to tie it off. All the style of the new Cadillacs with the heart of a Corvette and some seriously infectious presence had our resident German and Japanese car aficionados ready to dive into this detail!

Take a look into our recent detail on this new Porsche GT3, featuring STEK DYNOshield PPF and CQuartz Finest Reserve!

Full vehicle protection with a change of pace! STEK offers more than just clear & glossy films, and this Model Y elected for DYNOmatte film across all painted surfaces. Topped with CQuartz Skin, designed for PPF and vinyl films, for even further ease of maintenance. Take your vehicle to the next level at Areté.

We recently completed this full car paint protection film wrap with STEK DYNOshield, topped it all off with CQuartz Finest Reserve ceramic car protection, and made a little video! Hope you all enjoy it.

We're proud to announce that Arete Auto Salon now installs STEK PPF in-house! Coupled with CQuartz Finest Reserve we are proud to offer this world-class protective pairing for your vehicle.
