Paint Protection Film (PPF) Installer

All American Paint Protection
Rockville, MD

About Us

All American Paint Protection specializes in high-end automotive services, including car detailing, paint protection film (PPF) application, window tinting, and ceramic coating. We work primarily with luxury vehicle owners who expect top-tier service and attention to detail.


Our reputation is built on quality, professionalism, and a deep passion for automotive care. We are a fast-paced, dynamic business focused on exceptional craftsmanship, customer satisfaction, and working with high-end and luxury vehicles.


We are currently hiring an experienced PPF Installer who takes pride in delivering elite-quality work and wants to operate in a shop designed for high-performance production.


What You’ll Do

  • Apply paint protection film (PPF) to vehicles at an expert level across hoods, bumpers, fenders, mirrors, doors, and full-body applications
  • Execute installations with precision—cutting, trimming, shaping, and finishing for a seamless result
  • Perform quality control checks and ensure finished installs meet strict workmanship standards
  • Work across a range of vehicles, including daily drivers, luxury, and exotic models
  • Maintain a clean, organized workspace and properly care for tools and materials
  • Collaborate with teammates to ensure jobs are completed efficiently and to standard
  • Interact with clients professionally when needed, delivering a high-end customer experience


What You Bring

Must-Have Requirements

  • 2+ years of professional PPF installation experience with a proven record of high-quality installs
  • Hands-on experience installing PPF on vehicles (not glass film or signage vinyl)
  • Consistent install volume (regular/daily installs—not occasional or add-on work)
  • Ability to perform installs with exceptional attention to detail and minimal defects
  • Strong understanding of wet install techniques, edge finishing, and film handling
  • Willingness to remove and redo work if quality is not up to standard


Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience working with luxury or exotic vehicles
  • Exposure to complex installs (curves, edges, intricate panels)
  • Familiarity with PPF cutting software (DAP, Core, or similar) or plotter use
  • Experience with vinyl wrap installation (in addition to PPF)
  • Experience using XPEL materials


What Sets This Role Apart

  • Quality-first environment – extremely high standards for finish and craftsmanship
  • Installer-focused shop setup – prep, cutting, and setup support allow you to focus on installing
  • Consistent workflow year-round, avoiding seasonal slowdowns common in the industry
  • Opportunity to work on high-end and luxury vehicles daily
  • Clean, climate-controlled shop with professional equipment and strong team culture


Compensation

  • Flexible compensation structure (salary, commission, or combination) depending on candidate preference and experience
  • High earning potential tied to productivity and quality (target total compensation range: ~$60,000 – $200,000+) depending on experience
  • Relocation support available for qualified candidates (case-by-case)
