Motec Paint Protection Film(PPF)

In the hot summer, many car owners choose to stick a layer of Paint Protection Film (PPF) on the surface of their car to protect the body. Paint Protection Film is a transparent protective film that effectively protects car surfaces from scratches, wear, and UV damage. So, why is summer particularly suitable for applying PPF?



PPF, also known as "paint protection film", is a transparent protective film applied to the surface of car paint. It is a high-performance new environmentally friendly film, as shown in the following picture.



PPF is a thermoplastic polyurethane film (TPU) containing UV resistant polymer, anti yellowing, super toughness, and wear resistance. No yellowing, easy to stick, collision and scratch resistant. After sticking, it can isolate the car paint surface from the air, prevent acid rain, oxidation, and scratches, and provide long-lasting protection for the paint surface.

Simply put, it means putting transparent clothes on the car to protect its skin and prevent minor injuries.

So, how important is PPF in summer?

In summer, the sunshine is strong

The summer sunshine is strong and the ultraviolet radiation is very high. Long term exposure to sunlight can cause the car paint to fade and oxidize, making it dull and dull.

And PPF can effectively resist the damage of ultraviolet rays. It has the characteristic of UV resistance, which can effectively block the damage of UV to car paint, protect the brightness and color of car paint from loss.

In summer, there is more rainfall

Summer is a rainy and dusty season. Rain and dust may cause irreversible damage to the surface of a car.

Dust can form tiny particles on the surface of a car, adhering to the paint and potentially causing corrosion, scratches, and oxidation over time.

Moreover, thunderstorms in summer may cause acid rain, and acidic substances can easily corrode car paint.

As a protective layer, PPF can block the damage of rainwater and dust to the car paint, reducing the risk of vehicle damage.

In summer, high temperature and heat

At high temperatures, the surface temperature of the car paint will rise sharply. If the quality of the car paint is poor or there are small surface problems, it is easy to cause paint expansion, cracking, and other situations.

And PPF has good chemical thermal conductivity, which can help disperse the influence of high temperature on car paint, reduce the risk of paint expansion and cracking.

Car owner, more worry free

In addition, PPF also has certain self-cleaning performance.

In summer, rain and dust make it difficult to keep vehicles clean. But after applying PPF, the surface of the car body is smooth and flat, less prone to dust and dirt accumulation, and easier to clean.

This not only saves the car owner's time and energy, but also maintains the cleanliness and brightness of the vehicle.
