Nov 28, 2022

Car paint care has always been one of the key items in the daily maintenance of the majority of car owners. Whether you are a new car or an old car, don’t you want to look good when you drive out? Therefore, many car owners are used to coating and crystal-plating their cars every year to ensure that the paint surface is as bright as new. I don’t know if you know another paint maintenance technology, which has become more and more popular in China. It is our protagonist today – invisible car cover. So what are the benefits of an invisible car cover? Why is the price so high? Today, the editor will come to understand with you, hoping to help the car owners who are about to make invisible car covers.

Invisible car cover is simply to stick a transparent protective film on the car paint surface, commonly known as car body transparent film, vehicle rhinoceros leather, car paint protection film, etc. The product material is polyurethane film, which contains anti-ultraviolet polymer, anti-yellowing , With super toughness, wear resistance, no yellowing, easy to stick towels, anti-collision, after installation, the surface of the car paint can be isolated from the air, anti-acid rain, oxidation and scratch resistance, long-lasting protection for car paint, and its wear resistance Very strong, the actual service life is about 3-5 years.

As we all know, the paint surface is the most vulnerable part of the car. In everyday driving, any small scratch can damage the paintwork. The traditional car paint beauty starts from waxing and sealing glaze, and the coating is better than crystal plating. The aging time of these projects is relatively short, and the best effect is about half a year. However, the invisible car cover has a longer effect time, and generally will not change color or turn yellow within 3-5 years. At the same time, it prevents corruption. In today’s increasingly serious environment, car paint will definitely face the corrosion and oxidation of acid rain. In daily life, sand and stone intrusion, splashing, and scratches from branches are inevitable. Even in autumn and winter, the dew on the car will corrode the paint. Put on a clear protective film to separate the paint from the outside environment, and you don’t need to worry about these.

The main function of car color changing film is to decorate the car body and protect the paint surface, but the most important function is to decorate the car body with personality; the main function of the invisible car cover is to protect the paint surface in all directions. The invisible car cover can not only improve the gloss of the car paint, prevent paint damage, but also prevent paint scratches and collisions. The invisible car cover on the market is made of TPU and PVC. TPU is made of environmentally friendly materials, which is soft to the touch, has good tensile toughness, and has the characteristics of self-aging and scratch resistance. The PVC material is relatively hard TPU, which will change color when exposed to the sun for a long time, so it is not easy to use edge wrapping during construction. TPU is more and more favored by car owners for its superior performance and environmental protection concept. Currently, TPU can be a substitute for PVC where PVC is used. The advantages of single TPU are beyond the reach of PVC. Of course, the material price of TPU is not cheap, not all car owners can afford it.

There is a special polymer coating on the surface of the TPU material. This clear coat has scratch memory repair. When the surface of the coating is affected by external forces, the coating will automatically restore to its original state. But if the scratch breaks the clear coat, it won’t heal.

Repair time depends on the severity of the scratch and the ambient temperature. Slightly bruised, usually an hour at 40C. When the temperature is high, the repair time will be shorter. Dousing hot water over the scratch can speed up the repair process. There is no limit to the number of touch-ups provided the clear coat is not damaged. All of the above are TPU films with active repair function, but PVC films do not.

First of all, we can judge the quality from the touch of the invisible car cover. The best quality car covers are soft and stretch very well. Second, we can feel it through our sense of taste. If you smell a strong chemical smell, it means that the raw material used in the car cover is of low quality. Look at the transparency of the invisible car cover. The higher the transparency, the more it can be integrated with the original car. It will not affect the original color of the car paint at all, and it can also improve the gloss of the car paint. Finally, according to the chemical reaction of the invisible car cover, it is judged whether it is flame retardant. Since non-flame retardant car clothing is easy to leave marks on the car paint when it encounters fireworks, high-quality invisible car clothing has a flame retardant function.
