If you think of it like that, you may be disappointed. If you think of it more as a protective coating for the clearcoat against normal handling (bird droppings, washing with a dirty rag, bird droppings, hard water spots, etc) that makes the car easier to wash and tends to enhance gloss or shine, you'll be happier.

Something that would chip your paint without it will almost certainly chip your paint with it.

Also, FWIW, ceramics can be applied on top of PPF (you would not put PPF on top of a ceramic...you would remove the ceramic beforehand) and that's probably the highest end way to go.
