Integral Protection is our custom paint protection film (PPF) kit for bike frames. It's precision-cut to follow your bike's lines and gives an invisible, ultra-resistant shield against stone chips, scratches and abrasion, without altering your frame's design.

A high-performance polyurethane film, developed specifically for bikes, 230 microns thick. It's anti-yellowing, UV resistant, self-healing (minor scratches disappear on their own with heat, from the sun or warm water) and non-stick, so mud is less likely to cling to the frame.

Tailored. Each kit is custom-cut by brand, model, size and year of your bike for a precise fit, and comes in Matte or Gloss to match your frame's original finish. If you're after a fit-any-bike option instead, see our Universal kit below.

- 40 to 70 grams for a full frame kit

- 15 to 20 grams for a full fork kit

Match your frame's finish: Gloss for a shiny, reflective paint job. Matte for a dull, non-reflective one.

Anodised surfaces have a coarsertexture that the adhesive struggles to grip evenly, which tends to trapmoisture and air under the film. That can make the kit harder to apply andleave small bubbles or a milky look once fitted, so we can't guarantee the sameclean finish you'd get on smooth painted frames.

That just means we haven't designed that particular frame size yet. For current or recent frames, email us and we'll let you know if a kit is in the pipeline for your size, or use our kit request form. For discontinued frames, we're unlikely to add new sizes.

Both work. Placing decals on top means you can swap them out whenever you like without having to remove the kit. Placing them underneath protects the decal itself, but it's a touch less clean visually, since a small air bubble tends to form around the decal's edges.

A few reasons riders choose it:
it protects resale value (a bike with no scuffs sells at full price once the film is removed), it absorbs stone chips and chain slap on the down tube, it stops everyday rubbing from cable housings, knee pads or frame bags, and its hydrophobic surface makes cleaning quicker, since mud and grease don't stick as easily. It's also a lot cheaper than repairing a paint chip or carbon impact at a specialist.

An installation guide with tips,0.5 ml of Slicy Shampoo to ease application, and a degreasing wipe to cleanyour frame beforehand. Installation tools (squeegee, microfibre cloth, spraybottle, heat gun) aren't included by default, you can add our PRO installation kit at checkout if you don't already have them.

Work indoors at room temperature (17-27°C). Clean and degrease the bike, remove the wheels, chain and external cable housings, and wash your hands. Fill the spray bottle with 0.5 L water and 1-2 ml of Slicy Shampoo. Apply the patches in order starting from N°1: wet the frame and the adhesive side of the patch, position it (it stays adjustable while wet), then squeegee out the water and air from the centre outwards and wipe away the excess with the microfibre cloth. Press the edges firmly, a few seconds with a hair dryer helps them bond. Leave a 3-5 mm gap between patches. Once finished, keep the bike somewhere warm for 24 hours and don't ride or wash it during that time.

Yes, each product page includes an install video alongside the downloadable step-by-step instructions.

Leave it to cure for 24 hours in a warm, dry space before riding or washing.

No,the self-healing, non-stick top coat is designed to shed dirt more easily thanbare paint, so a normal bike wash routine is fine.

Yes. Heat the patches with a hair dryer, then peel them off slowly at a 45° angle.

Slicy guarantees that the parts supplied conform to the model you ordered. The protection is effective under normal riding conditions (MTB, road, gravel); it doesn't cover damage from extreme impacts or improper installation.

Fitting or removing any protection film, ours or a factory-applied one, can sometimes reveal a paint or clear coat issue that was already there but hidden underneath. That kind of issue would fall under your bike manufacturer's own paint warranty, not ours, and installing or removing the film is done at your own responsibility. If you're at all concerned, it's worth checking with your bike's manufacturer before you start.

No need to replace the whole kit. Email us your kit reference (brand, model, year, size, finish) and the patch number shown on the product diagram, and we'll help you order just that replacement piece.

For the frame, plan on 2 to 3 hours if you've done it before, or 3 to 5 hours the first time round. The fork kit is quicker, around 45 minutes to an hour. If you don't feel particularly meticulous or patient, we'd genuinely recommend having it fitted at a Slicy dealer rather than risking the finish.

No panic, we can still help. Fill out our kit request form with your bike's brand, type, model, year, frame size, wheel size, frame material and a photo, plus your contact details, and our team will consider developing a kit for it. We add new references every week, but we can't cover every bike out there.

Not directly, Integral Protection itself isn't personalisable. If you'd like a custom look on top of it, you can add a Slicy Colors - Universal frame protection kit over your (transparent) Integral Protection kit, some riders combine the two this way.

Yes, at our workshop in Annecy. You can book an appointment, or send us your bike and kit by parcel (shipping both ways is at your expense). Frame fitting is €150, fork fitting is €30, and frame + fork together is €180
