Colour PPF The Smart Way to Protect and Restyle Your Car

For every real car enthusiast, it's an aching feeling when they notice that first deep stone chip in a perfect, factory-fresh paint job. You may choose the traditional, Paint Protection Film, which is a hard and robust layer that is invisible and protects the paint, but does not attempt to enhance or change your vehicle's design. However, if you desired to switch the look of your vehicle, you had to choose the old-fashioned vinyl wrap and give up the best-in-class impact protection and durability.
 

Automotive Detailing Evolved Quite a Bit

Now, with the new generation of colour PPF, car enthusiasts who own luxury vehicles, commuters, and supercar collectors can have the best of both worlds: beauty and durability when it comes to their car paint. This groundbreaking technology brings the best of both worlds, heavy-duty paint protection films and premium custom wraps in vivid, rich colours, to the automotive surface care market.

From a track-ready performing beast, a premium family SUV, and a classic high-end sedan, let's get into the details of why the premium Colour Paint Protection Film is the best long-term investment you can make on your vehicle.
 

Colour PPF is a Process that Rejuvenates a Car's Paint

It's important to understand what this material is and why it is so popular in the automotive world. Vehicle exterior modification existed for years in two worlds: one for vehicle modification, and another for vehicle wrapping. The thin vinyl wraps were on one side, providing amazing color options and virtually no protection from debris. Clear bra films on the other side were excellent in resisting rocks, but had no styling options.

Colour PPF covers a huge gap in bridging colour on cars. This is an ultra-thick protective coating with hyper-engineered pigments that are saturated deeply, richly, and are high-definition, just like the rich and beautiful automotive paint finishes found in high-end automotive manufacturing.

Modern automotive colour PPF uses complex multi-stage cast production methods, as opposed to traditional colour change vinyl wraps, which tend to appear flat, dull, and have an orange peel. This results in a real optical depth, metallic flake orientation, and hyper-gloss levels that are virtually the same as the multiple-stage custom paint job that would cost tens of thousands of dollars.

If used properly, it doesn't just stick out of the car like a sticker. It snugly conforms to the body lines, completely changing the image of your car without harming or changing any of the factory paint in the process, while securely preserving the integrity of each and every inch of paint underneath.
 

The Advantages of TPU Colour PPF Over Traditional Vinyl Wraps

The first thing you might think of if you want to give your car a new appearance is getting a typical colour-change vinyl wrap. Although vinyl wraps can be suited for ads or short-term styling, they're extremely susceptible to the wear of everyday driving.

The secret of the radical superior properties of the premium colour films is contained exclusively in the main chemical compound applied, TPU colour ppf (Thermoplastic Polyurethane), in contrast to PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride).
 

The Material Difference

Nearly double the physical thickness of old school vinyl wraps, TPU colour ppf acts as a literal shield for your body panels. A sharp gravel particle comes off the truck tyre on the highway, hits a vinyl wrap, penetrates the PVC layer, and creates a hole in the paint underneath.

That same rock, however, when it comes in contact with a high-grade polyurethane film, the elastomeric qualities of the TPU absorb the impact energy and soften the blow, creating a cushioning effect so that the rock does not pierce the film or damage your vehicle's metal or carbon fibre panels. In addition, TPU is naturally flexible and soft, and will not dry out, become brittle, or crack in response to significant seasonal temperature fluctuations.

How Does Self-Healing Colour PPF Work to Remove Scratches Automatically?

The challenge of owning a vehicle that continues to fascinate many people is in trying to avoid unsightly swirl marks, micro/marring, and fine surface scratches on dark paint. Even if you wash your car well using high-quality microfiber wash mitts, all the dust, debris from the road, and the little maintenance wipes you use will leave a fine network of scratches in your clear coat.
 

This is the Moment Where the Self-healing Colour PPF is a Game-Changer

The highest layer of an elite colored PPF for cars is treated with a specialized, proprietary elastomeric polymer coating. This topcoat has a structural "memory" itself. The polymers bend out of alignment when the surface experiences light abrasion, such as by a car wash brush, key swipes, or flying sand, but they don't tear or break off completely.

The heat is released from the polymer matrix when the top layer is exposed to any moderate heat source (such as leaving the car in the warm sun for an hour, engine bay heat, or warm water poured onto the panel). The molecules quickly realign themselves to their initial perfectly level positions.

The unsightly micro-scratches and wash swirls are completely gone, in front of your eyes, within minutes. The showroom shine and finish of your car remains intact, and you won't have to get paint correction compound treatments that are expensive and intensive to maintain in time. 
 

Want to Get a Stand-Out Custom Colour PPF Design?

Go into any large metropolitan parking garage or master planned community, and you'll see that there's a certain uniformity in the way modern luxury cars are painted; a small number of predictable and safe hues are typically metallic silver, corporate white, slate grey, or solid black. It's not possible if a driver considers his car to be his personal extension, personality, and taste in the sense that he feels like standing out in a crowd of identical cars.

By choosing a custom colour PPF, you gain access to a whole new realm of artistic expression and styling options, while avoiding permanent changes that could compel you into a situation where you've completely ruined the fair market value of your vehicle.

From transforming an existing sports car into a quiet, dignified, satin military green through to a stunning, exotic, and show-stopping gloss candy red or a deep liquid metallic that reflects the light like magic during evening light, custom films can make it happen.

The absolute reversibility of this route, however, is its biggest benefit over an after-market repaint. A few years later, if you choose to sell your car when it is used, a professional detailing service can easily and safely remove the film.

The original OEM paint under the film will be completely preserved and will be exactly as it was the day it was placed under the film, as the film has absorbed all the road abuse, rock impacts, and UV weathering over the years. This way, you'll be able to get some time of being conspicuous for years without jeopardizing your exit strategy at all: you'll be getting the highest trade-in value possible for your car.
 

What are the Advantages of Colour Films for the Environment and Contaminants?

Your vehicle is in a chemical battle with the air and environment around it, as well as with flying stones and micro scratches when it's taken out of the garage. The outward surface is surrounded by forces that are constantly at work to break it down, to discolour, and to deteriorate.

Automobile paint becomes porous over time. This means that organic material, such as acid bird poop, crushed bug guts, tree sap, and industrial spills, comes to rest on the surface in the sun, and they will slowly work their way into the clear coat, creating permanent, dull spots.

Premium automotive colour PPF is designed to have a very high-density non-porous hydrophobic topcoat. This has multiple protective effects:

Stain Prevention: Corrosive substances won't be able to penetrate the dense layer of polyurethane, allowing for sufficient time to clean them off before they leave any permanent chemical etch.

Protection from UV rays: The number one cause of paint oxidation, colour fading, and clear coat failure is from intense ultraviolet radiation from the sun. UV-protected integrated colour films from which you can enjoy rich, bright, and vibrant colours for years without fading.

Hydrophobic Sheet Effect: Water and environmental oil do not stick to the smooth surface of the film. Rainwater easily slides off, carrying surface dirt with it, and thereby making your once-weekly wash so simple and cutting maintenance time by half.
 

Would it Make Sense to Invest in a Luxury Car Colour PPF?

With high-end luxury models, electric cars, or modern supercars, the physical condition is the most important. Once a car is in the premium category, everything on its exterior is a huge money loss. An out-of-blown panel or a car with road rash can cost you a huge amount of money and will also affect the value of the car.

That is why a top-of-the-range luxury car colour PPF isn't simply an aesthetic improvement, but is a move for asset protection.

Take into account actual ownership expenses for an exotic/expensive car. With traditional paint, you are going to be spending a lot of money over five years of ownership for paint correction, professional paint polishing, ceramic coating refills, and even a paint shop touch-up for road rash.

The earlier you incorporate a high-grade colored protection film right on top of your panels, the less you'll have to deal with those future expenses. The film takes the strain of all the damage, while your balance sheet doesn't suffer a significant financial hit from paint depreciation. Consider premium color protection film for long-term asset management, and you'll realise that it's a worthwhile investment.

FAQs

Q1. What is Colour PPF, and what is the difference between clear PPF and coloured PPF?

A1. Clear PPF is only for your car, while Colour PPF will change the look of your vehicle with a quality, paint-like colour finish and offers the same protection as clear PPF. 
 

Q2. Do Colour PPF offer a better performance than vinyl wrap?

A2. Yes. Vinyl wraps are thin and prone to tears easily, and only last for 2-3 years. TPU colour ppf is twice the thickness, will absorb impact from rocks, and will last for 5 - 10 years.
 

Q3. What is the principle behind the self-healing color films?

A3. The film is fabricated using state-of-the-art heat-responsive polymers. The material reverts to its original shape when UV light and warm water are applied.
 

Q4. Is it okay to put a custom colour film on my car that will not affect my car's resale value? 

A4. No, it boosts it. Custom colour PPF is reversible, which is in contrast to a permanent repaint. The removal will expose factory paint, increasing the trade-in value.
 

Q5. Is it possible to safely place it in rented vehicles?

A5. Absolutely. It will help you to completely avoid bodywork penalties at the end of your lease, as the original paint is protected from road damage.
 

Q6. Can Colour PPF be used over ceramic coatings?

A6. No. The film is unable to adhere to a smooth ceramic surface. If there is any existing coating, it needs to be professionally polished off before the car colour PPF installation.
