Before the roll
Chips while the paint is still bare
A close-up on the first step. The install photos sit underneath it, not instead of it.

PPF photos from bare paint to the front clip
Updated
The dispute is the chip under the film: it was not there, they say, until you installed it. A PPF link starts with the paint before the film is cut, then the panels as they go on. Hood one day, bumper and fenders the next. They follow one URL. A partial front is written on the job. It is not its own module, and Opeo does not plot film.
How to document a PPF install — what a solid timeline, photo set, and customer text look like.

Questions & comments
Those chips on the hood were not there when I dropped it off.
They are the first photo, Paint before film, from yesterday morning before we cut film. Hood install is the next step. Driver fender is still open today.
The template
Paint, then each panel
Chips first. Then the panels you actually filmed. Delivery photos last.
01
Paint before the film
Chips, rash, and the edge of the hood, before anything is cut. This is the step that answers “you did that.”
02
Hood
The lay and the wrapped edge. Day one of a front clip often ends here.
03
Bumper, fenders, mirrors
Name the panels in the step. A partial front is that list, not a package in the software.
04
Out the door
The front in the light, on the same link as the chips from day one.
The chip, then the film
Day 2
What is filmed, and what is not
Fender on, door still paint. They see that on the link instead of asking if the car is done.
The scope
Partial front is a sentence on the job
Hood, fenders, bumper, mirrors. Written in the steps. Not a plotter and not a film catalog.
This is not a plotter, a film database, or a pattern library. Cutting stays in the tool you use now.
Your logo and colors on the link are on Pro. A crew login and a work log are on Pro and Scale.
Common questions
- Does the customer need an app to follow a two-day install?
- No. One link for the job, in the browser.
- Can I mark a partial front versus a full body?
- Yes, as the steps and the description on that job. There is no separate package module.
- Will Opeo tell them the car is ready?
- You set the status and the photos. If you text them, the message goes from your phone. Opeo does not send it.
Template, photos, and the text to send
What tends to hold up in this trade: a timeline the customer can follow, photos that match the dispute, and a text that still makes sense later. Opeo does not send that message.
