Motec Paint Protection Film(PPF) 

Paint protection film is becoming increasingly popular in car maintenance, like putting invisible armor on your car, which can effectively protect the car paint. However, there are many products on the market, how to choose the paint protection film that suits oneself? Next, let's learn about the key points of selection together.

Clearly define the budget scope

The first step in selecting paint protection film is to determine your budget. The price range of paint protection film is quite large, ranging from a few hundred dollars to several thousand dollars. Generally speaking, products with lower prices may have relatively limited materials, quality, and performance, while products with higher prices often provide higher quality materials and better protection effects.

Identify high-quality substrates

The paint protection film made of TPU material has strong toughness and can effectively resist scratches that may be encountered during daily driving. For example, if accidentally bumped into by other vehicles when opening the door in a parking lot, or if it comes into contact with objects such as tree branches on narrow roads, it can effectively protect the car paint from scratches.

In addition, the paint protection film of TPU substrate has superior corrosion resistance, which can effectively isolate substances such as acid rain, bird droppings, tree sap, etc. that have a corrosive effect on the car paint, preventing the car paint from being corroded and losing its luster.

TPU substrate also has self-healing function. This feature is a major highlight of TPU material. When there are some small scratches on the surface of the car cover, they will automatically disappear under sunlight or after a period of room temperature storage, keeping the car cover in good appearance at all times.

Regarding the thickness of car clothing

The thickness of the paint protection film is also an important consideration factor. The common thickness of invisible car clothing is between 6.5mil and 10mm.

A car coat that is too thin, such as less than 6mil, may not provide effective protection and may be difficult to protect the car paint when encountering slightly more severe scratches.

However, overly thick car covers, such as those exceeding 10 mils, although theoretically have stronger protective capabilities, are more difficult to apply during installation and may not fit tightly. They may also affect the normal opening and closing of some details of the car, such as door edges and rearview mirrors.

Why do we need to apply paint protection film?

Protecting original car paint：The quality and craftsmanship of original car paint are usually one of the most valuable parts of a vehicle. Once the car paint is damaged, repainting is not only expensive, but also difficult to restore the original factory effect. Applying paint protection film can maximize the integrity of the original car paint.

Save unnecessary repair costs：Daily minor scratches often require frequent car paint repairs, and after applying paint protection film, these minor damages do not need to be worry about, saving a lot of repair costs.

If you want to protect your car paint for the long term, maintain the new condition of your vehicle, and reduce repair costs caused by minor scratches, Motec Paint Protection Film(PPF) is a very wise choice.
