Lamin-x Protective Films was founded by Chris Wadle in 2001 to create and pioneer an entirely new market of lens, paint, and surface protection for the automotive aftermarket products industry.

Inspired by the racing industry's use of yellow headlights, Chris Wadle realized the market potential of providing colored films for the automotive market. He decided to use a quality product that is thick and strong enough to protect and withstand for long distance racing, yet clear enough to not affect light optics. From that idea became an entire line-up of products that serve multiple, even endless purposes.

Today, we have hundreds of different vendors using and selling all of our films in many various and creative ways. Accessory Shops of different industries, Light Manufacturers, Paint Protection Installers, Graphic and Tint Shops, Equipment Manufacturers, Race Teams, Commercial Builders, Boat Manufacturers, etc... Our protective films are that versatile.
