Will the paint peel off when removing the car wrap after repainting?
1 Answers
Generally, the paint will not peel off when removing the car wrap if it has fully dried after repainting. Whether the paint protection film (PPF) is harmful to the car paint is not directly related to its material. However, when removing the film, if you apply too little force, it won't come off, but if you apply too much force, it can peel off the paint layer. It is recommended to apply the PPF 7 days after repainting to ensure the paint does not peel off when removing the film later. Here are the reasons why the paint might peel off when removing the PPF: The adhesive of the PPF is too strong: If the adhesive is not strong enough, it may leave residue or bubble, but if it is too strong, it may peel off the paint along with the film. The car was repainted before applying the PPF: If the car was repainted before applying the PPF and the paint was not fully dry, it can negatively affect the adhesion between the body and the paint, making it less secure. Additionally, repainted surfaces are often of lower quality than the original factory paint, making them more prone to peeling under excessive force. When the PPF itself has quality issues: Low-quality PPF not only fails to protect the paint but can also cause secondary damage to the paint surface. Particularly when removing the film, inferior products may emit a pungent odor and even peel off the paint when being removed.
