Is It Necessary to Purchase a Paint Protection Film?
1 Answers
Purchasing a paint protection film mainly depends on the owner's needs. If you plan to discard the car after three to five years, there is no need to buy it. However, if you aim to preserve the car's value or use it for several more years, then purchasing a paint protection film is advisable. The advantages of a paint protection film include: 1. Enhancing paint gloss. A paint protection film can improve the gloss and brightness of the car's paint, with varying effects depending on the brand, typically increasing brightness by 5%-30%. 2. Preventing physical scratches. The primary purpose of a paint protection film is to protect the car's original paint, especially against physical scratches. Minor scratches and abrasions can self-heal. It effectively prevents damage from road debris like stones and branches. 3. Preventing chemical corrosion. You won't have to worry about acid rain corrosion, oxidation, or damage from common road contaminants like bird droppings and insect remains. 4. Long-term value preservation. The transparent paint protection film perfectly safeguards the original paint while enhancing its brightness, adding aesthetic value. A well-maintained, brighter paint job can increase the car's resale value by 10%-20% in the used car market.
