StarLustre Series
Standard Tier
PROKHAR PPF — Not Just Film, Peace of Mind
StarLustre is the Standard tier in PROKHAR’s PPF lineup, engineered as the go-to, high-turnover solution for larger automotive-detailing shops and regional distributors. Built around a 7.5 mil thermoplastic TPU core (available in 8.5 mil and 9.5 mil options), StarLustre balances cost-efficiency with proven premium protections: heat-activated self-healing and an instant-repair variant are both available to match workshop workflows and customer expectations. Each roll is precision-engineered to conform to the most complex body curves and trim details while guaranteeing residue-free removal.
The material system combines high-performance thermoplastic TPU elasticity with Ashland’s advanced adhesive technology, delivering superior tensile strength, high elongation at break, and elevated tear and puncture resistance. A fifth-generation Japanese nano-supercoating enhances resistance to acid rain, salt, and UV-induced yellowing while continuing to preserve gloss and optical clarity. StarLustre is positioned as the practical, best-selling line that lets shops scale operations without sacrificing the look and protection customers expect from a premium car paint protection film.
KEY FEATURES & ADVANTAGES
- High-grade design: Improved conformability and impact resistance for everyday and demanding use.
- Multiple thicknesses: Available in 7.5 mil (default), with 8.5 mil and 9.5 mil options to match front-end, bumper, or full-wrap protection strategies; choose heat repair or instant repair variants.
- Thermoplastic TPU substrate: Outstanding tensile strength and elongation for superior load bearing, tear and puncture resistance, and long-term dimensional stability.
- 5th-generation Japanese nano supercoating: Exceptional resistance to acid, alkali and salt; minimizes yellowing and sustains mirror-like gloss; supports heat-activated self-healing.
- Ashland high-performance adhesive: Strong, secure bonding with clean, residue-free removal; solvent and weather resistant; resists insect and bird-drop degradation.
- Perfect fit, zero residue: Molecular-level flow and installation-grade processing deliver bubble-free, edge-stable application across complex curves and recessed details.
- Premium visual finish: High-gloss mirror effect that elevates vehicle aesthetics while remaining tough against stone chips, scratches, UV and daily wear.
- Operational reliability: Engineered for real-world climates and heavy workshop use — a proven choice for shops that need a dependable, fast-moving SKU.

Product Structure
PROKHAR Car PPF
Clear PET Protective Layer (Top removable guard during manufacture & transport)
- Thin transparent PET film applied as a temporary protective barrier.
- Shields the underlying functional topcoat during cutting, roll handling and shipping; prevents micro-abrasions and contamination before final installation.
Topcoat — Corrosion-Resistant Nano Topcoat + Self-Healing Coating
- High-performance nano topcoat manufactured in Japan, enhanced with ceramic nanoparticles and a self-healing polymer matrix.
- Provides hydrophobic/oleophobic surface properties, superior resistance to acids/alkalis/salts, surface scratch resistance and thermal self-healing for light abrasions when heat-activated.
- Ceramic nano-fillers increase stain resistance and long-term gloss retention — a key selling point for premium car clear bra customers.
Functional Additives Layer
- Nanocoatings and high-gloss treatments integrated into or atop the topcoat.
- Boosts initial and long-term gloss, improves surface smoothness for easier cleaning and better visual depth.
- Enhanced showroom finish that helps installers demonstrate value to end customers.
Aliphatic Polyurethane (TPU) Substrate — Core Protective Layer
- High-grade aliphatic TPU formulated for low yellowing, high elongation and impact energy absorption.
- Primary protective body of the film — provides elasticity for complex curves, impact resistance against stone chips, tear resistance and optical transparency.
- Aliphatic chemistry offers superior UV/yellowing stability versus aromatic TPUs, ensuring clarity and color-fast performance over years.
Acrylic Pressure-Sensitive Adhesive (PSA)
- High-performance acrylic adhesive supplied to PROKHAR spec (Ashland/Henkel grade).
- Secure, long-lasting bond to automotive paint while allowing repositioning during installation; engineered for low residue on removal and minimal paint interaction.
- Installer confidence through consistent tack, clean removability and reduced callbacks.
Release Liner (Backing for storage & cutting)
- Silicone-coated release liner that protects the PSA until application.
- Facilitates storage, precision cutting and transport; peeled away immediately before install.
- Stable, flat liners that reduce mis-cuts and speed pre-cut workflows for distributors and installers.
