FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is the best software for a PPF (paint protection film) shop?
SalesThumb is purpose-built for PPF installers: coverage-area pricing (partial front, full front, track package, full car), large-format roll tracking by the inch, 10-year warranty registration with branded certificates, and multi-day job scheduling. Generic auto-shop tools need heavy configuration to approximate this.
Can it track PPF film rolls by the inch?
Yes. Receive 60-inch rolls by batch, supplier, and cost; the system auto-deducts inches on job completion and fires a low-stock alert before you run out mid-install — so you always know your real material margin.
Does it price PPF by coverage tier?
Yes — partial front, full front, track package, and full vehicle are first-class pricing tiers per vehicle class, so every quote is consistent and your margin is protected on the big jobs.
Can customers book a PPF install and pay a deposit online?
Yes. Each shop gets a public booking page that captures vehicle info, collects a Stripe deposit, and lands the appointment on the calendar with SMS confirmations.
Does it handle PPF warranty registration?
Yes — auto-register each install, generate branded warranty PDFs, and handle yellowing or defect claims and transfers from one place.
