I want to apply a Paint protection film to my car, but I want to apply it on the inside of the door, too, because I can see lots of scuffs on the area around the cup holders.
The problem is the PPF service's owner said the plastic in that area isn't suitable for this job.
Is there any way to protect that part of the car? Or should I leave it as it is without thinking too much about it? Thanks in advance!
 
You might wanna consider using a protective vinyl wrap or clear adhesive film designed for interior surfaces...If you're still concerned about the scuffs, a removable coating or detail spray could also help protect it.
 
I would also recommend using a strong ceramic coating in that area, It won't totally stop scratches, but it will make the plastic way more scratch-resistant and easier to clean. Just be careful with application to avoid streaks.
 
Yeah, those spots get scuffed up so fast, especially with kids! If PPF won’t stick, you could try a stick-on rubberized film or even those pre-cut door cup protectors made for scuff zones. Worst case, a light ceramic coating might help reduce future marks without needing to cover the whole area.

You're right to be concerned about those scuffs! That area around the cupholders and door pockets takes a beating. It's frustrating when PPF isn't recommended for a specific surface, and unfortunately, some interior plastics just don't play nice with PPF. The texture, the type of plastic, and even the way it's molded can make adhesion difficult. It might bubble, peel, or look cloudy over time.
Have you tried alternative films:? They might not be as thick or as durable as PPF, but they can still offer good protection against scratches and scuffs. Ask your PPF installer if they work with any interior films, or search online for "interior car protection film" or "clear bra for interior."
 
If you're looking for something a bit more subtle, you could try using clear adhesive strips designed for interior use. They’re often used on high-wear areas like around cup holders and armrests. They're also easy to apply and remove without damaging the plastic underneath..Hope that helps.
