What is the difference between color changing film and car wrap


2025-07-08

The main differences between color changing film and car clothing are reflected in functional positioning, material, usage, and maintenance costs
Functional positioning
The car cover is centered around protecting the original car paint and is made of TPU material to provide scratch resistance, corrosion resistance, hydrophobic and anti fouling functions. Minor scratches can be self repaired and the warranty period is 5-10 years. ‌
Color changing film is mainly used to change the color of the car body or cover local damage marks. PVC material has rich colors but weak protection ability, with a warranty period of 2-3 years. ‌
Material differences
Car clothing is generally made of TPU material, which has nano coating and self-healing ability; The color changing film is mostly made of PVC material, which is easy to color but has poor durability. ‌
Construction method
Car clothes need to be wet pasted (in a dust-free environment), while color changing films are mostly dry pasted, making the construction process simpler. ‌
Maintenance cost
The price of car clothes is usually twice that of color changing film, but the long-term protection effect is better; The cost of replacing the color changing film is relatively low, making it suitable for car owners who pursue color changes. ‌
