Our founding installer is now open in Salisbury, SA · More studios on the way
Few studios.
Each one chosen.
We place a small number of studios in each state and give every one its own area, trade pricing, hands-on training at Polyshield HQ and a direct line to our team. Every application is reviewed by hand.
Example credential. Founding status goes to the first studio in each state, or the first six studios to join.
Most states are still waiting for their first studio.
The first studio selected in each state is a Founding studio. Once areas start to fill, new applicants can only be placed where an area is free.
Founding studio: Pegasus Motorsports, Salisbury. Other metro and regional areas are open.

Your own patch, kept clear of other Polyshield studios.
When you’re selected, you get an area around your studio. We won’t place another Polyshield studio inside it.
- Sized to the region. Metro areas start around 10 km. Regional areas run to 15 km, where customers travel further.
- Leads go to the nearest studio. Quote requests from inside your area come to you first.
- You can still work anywhere. Your area protects you from another Polyshield studio. It never limits who you can fit film for.
- Set in writing. Your area is confirmed in your studio agreement when you're accredited.
Film, customers, training and a team behind you.
This isn’t another wholesale account. Every studio gets the same core support, and Founding studios get locked-in pricing for their first six months.

- Founding status for the first studio in each state, or the first six to join
How many studios do you take in each state?
Only as many as the state can support without studios competing for the same customers. Each studio holds an area of roughly 10 km in metro regions and up to 15 km in regional ones.
What does Founding status give me?
Founding trade pricing for your first six months, and the Founding studio title on your profile. It goes to the first studio in each state, or the first six studios to join.
Do I have to come to South Australia?
Yes. PPF and window tint training happen in person at Polyshield HQ, twice a year in March and September. Business and marketing sessions run on Zoom.
How much does training cost?
Training is paid, at a reduced rate while we build the network. It includes free film supply and a starter kit. We confirm the fee when you’re selected.
Is there a minimum order?
No. There’s no minimum order and no volume commitment.
Can I work on cars from outside my area?
Yes. Your area stops us placing another Polyshield studio near you. It doesn’t limit where your customers come from.
Where do quote requests go?
To your studio and to Polyshield at the same time. You get support on every enquiry, and customers get an accurate response.
What if my area is already held?
Apply anyway. We’ll look at nearby areas with you, or hold your application until one opens.
