PPF - Self-healing Magic

The coolest aspect of paint protection film (PPF) would be its self-healing property. Let me share with you more on my favorite topic on PPF!

Like a rubber ball or a metal spring, after squeezing, it STILL goes back to its original form. 

Similarly for thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), the base material of PPF, it is elastic and strong.

These combined properties make TPU flexible and resistant to tears and abrasions.

How long does PPF take to heal?

This depends on:

1. how deep are the scratches

2. the surrounding temperature 

Taking our country’s average temperature of approximately 25°C, the healing speed is definitely below one hour.

Limitation of the healing magic 

Now let’s be very transparent, if your scratches are so deep until it reaches your car paint level, PPF has no way to cure your heartache. 

Fortunately, a well taken care PPF is expected to perform its magic for its whole life, which is around 5 - 7 years. 

I hope the video above 👆 amazed you, like how I felt when I first came across PPF.
