How 3M Protection Wrap Films Get Their Color
Vinyl Wrap vs. 3M Protection Wrap Film
Some installers and end-users feel that vinyl wrap film, given its thinner nature, isn’t as durable as paint protection film and is also more difficult to maintain. That’s simply because vinyl behaves differently than urethane, which is the base material of PPF.
3M Protection Wrap Film (PWF) addresses that client concern because its base material is urethane, which is more durable and easier to maintain than vinyl. You can treat PWF just like you treat your car’s paint. That is because PWF is clear coated, just like paint and 3M’s paint protection films. Light scratches that occur under normal driving conditions can self-heal or be worked out easily with heat. And unlike most vinyl color change films, 3M PWF is backed by a ten (10) year manufacturer’s warranty.
Installation
3M Protection Wrap Film is a dry apply film just like Vinyl Wrap Film Series 2080. Two 3M patented adhesive technologies facilitate the installation process. First, 3M Controltac minimizes the tackiness of the film’s adhesive to allow the technician to position the material correctly on the vehicle. Only with pressure from the technician’s squeegee will the film tack to the underlying substrate. Second, 3M’s Comply adhesive allows for easy air release to help ensure a bubble-free installation.
Protection Wrap Film is cold stretch capable, meaning it conforms to most vehicular curves and recesses using minimal to no heat. And because Protection Wrap Films are dry apply, the installer does not need to wait to wrap the film around various surface edges.
