reason is simple: hail damage, scorching heat, and smart vehicle owners protecting their rides.
After the April 30th hail storm hit Killeen, TX, our shop saw a rapid increase in demand for hail damage repair, paint protection film (PPF), and ceramic window tint. Now, just two weeks into May, our bays are full, phones are ringing nonstop, and the community is turning to us to keep their vehicles protected, cooled, and dent-free.
As we moved through the second half of April 2025, it became clear that hail damage repair, paint protection film (PPF), and window tint were the major drivers of business at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings. The hail season in Central Texas has refused to take a break, and neither have we.
It’s hard to believe that we’re still repairing vehicles damaged in the Mother’s Day 2024 hailstorm, but that’s the nature of hail season in Texas—there’s never really an “off” season. Even with the more modest hailstorms that struck the Killeen and Harker Heights areas in late April and early May 2025, the damage still warranted insurance claims for many vehicle owners. (See our guide on hail damage insurance supplements).
Within just a few days of the latest storms, our waiting list for hail damage repair services grew to over 30 cars. Why? Because our clients are car lovers—people who care about their vehicles and don’t want to live with dings, dents, or scratches caused by unpredictable Texas weather.

Love them or hate them, the 2024 Cybertrucks are polarizing cars. At Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we love ALL cars, especially when we get to install color change PPF on them! We have 120 different colors to choose from, and this Killeen area client picked Black Phantom Red from UPPF / Terminax with a 10 year warranty. We have Interstellar Chrome Blue on our minivan, Diamond Black on our loaner car, and have installed the Satin Black on a previous Tesla Cybertruck, and all are holding up great! Despite the abuse that my personal Kia Carnival takes as well as our Kia Forte loaner car, the film maintains a great level of hydrophobics - making the film (and cars) super easy to detail. Even the recent dust storms we had in the Copperas Cove - Killeen - Temple area came off fairly easily with just soap and water (and no scrubbing).
When you own an iconic muscle car like the 2024 Ford Mustang EcoBoost, keeping it protected from rock chips, road debris, and Texas' harsh sun is crucial. This stunning blue Mustang came into Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings for a full front-end paint protection film (PPF) installation and ceramic window tinting.
Since this client drives between Copperas Cove and Temple, TX, they wanted premium protection for their Mustang to prevent highway damage while also enhancing heat rejection and privacy with ceramic tint.
Here’s what we installed on this 2024 Ford Mustang EcoBoost:
✔ Autobahn Incognito PPF on the bumper and hood – Shields against rock chips, road debris, and scratches.
✔ Autobahn Ceramic Window Tint on the side windows and rear glass – Blocks UV rays, heat, and glare for a cooler ride.
