FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
TPU PPF (Paint Protection Film) is a transparent thermoplastic polyurethane film applied to a car’s exterior. It protects against scratches, rock chips, UV rays, and minor chemical damage.
Use pH-neutral car shampoo and a microfiber cloth. Avoid alcohol-based or abrasive cleaners. Apply PPF-specific sealants every 3-6 months.
A TPU color - changing car wrap is an automotive color - changing product made of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), a high - molecular material. It can not only change the body color to achieve a personalized appearance but also has the function of protecting the car paint, such as resisting ultraviolet rays and scratches.
Material properties: TPU material is environmentally friendly, durable, and has excellent stretchability, wear resistance, anti - aging, and chemical corrosion resistance. PVC is relatively inferior and is prone to problems such as a strong plastic feel, obvious orange - peel texture, and insufficient gloss.
Usage effects: TPU color - changing car wraps have more vivid colors, are closer to the original car paint, are less likely to fade or crack, and have a self - healing function. PVC color - changing films are prone to fading and cracking after long - term sun exposure and have no self - healing function
Service life: The service life of TPU color - changing car wraps is generally more than 5 years, while that of PVC color - changing films is usually 2 - 3 years.
Removal situation: TPU color - changing car wraps are less likely to leave glue when removed, while PVC color - changing films may have serious residue.
Protect the car paint: Effectively resist the erosion of ultraviolet rays, acid rain, bird droppings, etc., and prevent minor scratches from damaging the car paint.
• Self - repair: Has the function of automatic scratch repair, improving the integrity and resale value of the vehicle.
• High - gloss luster: Improves the body's luster, with a flat and well - fitting paint surface, presenting a metallic luster.
• Diverse color options: There are a rich variety of colors to choose from, meeting personalized needs.
• Easy installation: Easy to install and remove.
• Environmentally friendly and durable: Recyclable and degradable, in line with the trend of green environmental protection, and has a long service life.
Under normal circumstances, high - quality TPU color - changing car wraps use high - quality pigments. The pigment molecules are closely combined with the TPU substrate, and the TPU film itself has a good blocking effect on ultraviolet rays, which can greatly reduce the damage of ultraviolet rays to the pigments. So it is not easy to fade and can maintain vivid colors for a long time. However, if inferior products are used, or the vehicle is exposed to harsh environments (such as long - term exposure to the sun, strong acid and alkali environments) for a long time, fading may also occur.
The official warranty is generally 5 years. Under normal use and maintenance conditions, the actual service life can reach more than 5 years. However, if it comes into frequent contact with sharp objects or harsh environments, it may affect its actual service life.
• Daily cleaning: Regularly clean with clean water or neutral car wash liquid, and avoid using cleaners containing abrasives or corrosives.
• Avoid scratches: Try to avoid the vehicle coming into contact with sharp objects.
• Timely repair: If there are minor scratches, use its self - repair function. You can make it automatically repair by exposing it to the sun or pouring hot water. If the scratches are serious, find professional personnel to deal with them in a timely manner.
• Parking attention: Try to park in an indoor parking lot to avoid long - term exposure to the sun and rain.
