The weather has become hot recently, and the film on my car body has no effect. I want to change a set of film. I wonder what brand is good here in Hefei?
1. Flowers outside the wall and fragrance inside the wall
In Europe and America, automobile film is an industry on the verge of elimination. Since the film has negative effects such as affecting the driver's sight and inducing crimes in the car, and most foreign new cars use colored insulating glass, many developed countries in Europe and America have legislated against film in the car since the end of the 1990s. For example, in the United States, only seven States can allow film to be put in cars.
However, the car film banned in Europe unexpectedly found a market in China, and spread with lightning speed. In addition to original brands such as Johnson & Johnson, 3M, and Dragon Film, more OEM companies are flocking. According to statistics, from 1998, in just eight years, domestic solar film brands have exceeded 1000.
2. "Civet cats" and "Prince" coexist
Huang Cheng, technical director of Shanghai Haiyan Gu Wei International Trade Company, told the reporter that 70% of the early brands of solar films came from the United States, such as Belcat, Dragon Film and American FTI. Low-end membrane brands mainly come from Japan, South Korea and Taiwan Province Province of China. However, perhaps it is optimistic about the high profits of imported brands, and a large number of local film manufacturers are also under the banner of "import". Among thousands of film brands, most claim to be "imported famous brands" in Europe and America, but in fact there are no more than 20 well-known brands of regular glass films in the world.
According to informed sources, at present, the car film market is quite mixed. For example, many solar films claim to be clear and transparent and have high thermal insulation. However, experts say that there are not many films that can have high thermal insulation and high light transmittance at the same time. Except for a few American companies, most brands don't have this production capacity. In addition, the thermal insulation rate of professional solar films on the market is generally 40%-70%, but many solar films indicate that their thermal insulation rate is above 90%. In fact, most solar films that claim that their thermal insulation rate is above 80% are fake and shoddy products. Another example is the explosion-proof membrane. A while ago, there was a dispute: a car owner spent a lot of money to put up an explosion-proof membrane, and one night someone easily smashed a big hole with a brick. Due to the lack of relevant legal basis, such cases are generally difficult to judge.
3. The profit rate is "elastic"
Car owners may find it hard to believe-the profit of taking a whole car is sometimes higher than selling it. When a well-known solar film company in Shenzhen introduced its products to dealers, it claimed that the cost of front film and side film was only tens of yuan, but the price of car stickers was 800-8800 yuan. The profiteering revealed by the manufacturers themselves has exceeded 100 times, which is not unusual in the industry. More small workshop-style solar film manufacturers have lower costs.
In fact, many media have been exposed to the chaos in the industry for a long time, and the cost price of car film has become an open secret. However, it is useless to bargain with this shield, because the salesman will refute you with ten times more reasons than you.
"We are no match for promoters. They often cite a series of functions of products, put out a bunch of certificates such as warranty, and then draw a clear line between themselves and low-priced car films. It is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish between authenticity and falsehood. " In the interview, consumers have said that due to unfounded standards and lack of detection means, consumers can only make subjective judgments based on superficial phenomena.
4. There are policies at the top and countermeasures at the bottom.
According to the information from the National Glass Quality Supervision and Inspection Center, cars have been professionally tested before leaving the factory, and the heat insulation, ultraviolet protection and explosion protection levels of most automobile glasses have met people's needs. Since 2005, Shanghai, Jinan, Beijing, Guangdong, Jiangsu and other places have gradually restricted the film pasting of automobile glass, which has undoubtedly become the biggest test of the tens of billions of yuan automobile film market. However, according to the reporter's understanding, most businesses sell their products by claiming that their car membranes have reached the legal threshold. Many car owners blindly believe the words of the merchants, but it is difficult to check the car. Relevant experts call on the state to introduce the industry standard of automobile glass film as soon as possible, standardize the market and safeguard consumers' rights and interests.
5. Car film discrimination teaches you five tricks
First, check the watermark and quality assurance card. Although the film with watermark is not necessarily real, the film without watermark is definitely fake. In the same way, genuine car films generally provide customers with a 5-6 year warranty card, while fakes often do not have a warranty card.
Second, look at clarity. Regardless of the color depth of the film, high-quality film should be able to clearly see objects 6 meters away at night, while inferior film will have a foggy feeling.
Again, smell it. After the transparent protective layer is torn off, the inferior film will emit irritating toxic odor, while the high-quality film does not have these odors.
Fourth, feel good or bad. High-quality film feels thick and smooth, while inferior film feels thin and brittle, and it is easy to wrinkle.
Fifth, thermal insulation performance. A simple test method can be used for comparison: put a piece of glass stuck on the car film on the iodine tungsten lamp, and the high-quality film will not feel much heat by hand.
How to choose car film
In summer, the temperature inside the car is ten degrees higher than that outside. After summer, drivers without film will find that their left arm is darker than their right arm. This is caused by harmful ultraviolet rays in the sun directly shining on the left arm. Therefore, in the 1980s, a "sun-proof and heat-insulating film" appeared in the United States. However, there are many kinds of car films, and it is difficult for non-professionals to identify the quality of car films. Sometimes you spend a lot of money but put on a low-grade film, or unrealistically expect to put on a high-grade film for a little money, and blindly "bargain" with the beauty shop. Don't you know that a penny is worth a penny, and excessive bargaining may cause the store to shoddy? Therefore, it is particularly important to know some knowledge about automobile film.
Automobile explosion-proof films are divided into two categories: metal films and dyed films. In order to make it easier to understand, we can divide the types of car film into six categories.
First, dye the film. Refers to the lowest automotive film, which is thin, non-insulating and easy to fade. Generally, there are many small shops, which are very cheap. It only costs one or two hundred yuan to paste the whole car. "Tooth waist is pale" is its most remarkable feature. This kind of membrane is generally produced in Taiwan Province Province, China.
Step 2, coating the printed film. This is a unique craft in Korea. Generally thicker. This kind of film has good heat insulation, but its perspective is slightly poor.
Third, ordinary metal film. It is made by spraying metal on the colorless original film layer. Commonly used metals are aluminum, iron, etc. This kind of membrane is generally produced in India, Japan and the United States. This metal film is the most common one on the market. However, this kind of membrane is generally transparent and heat-insulating, but the price is not low. General beauty shops often use this kind of film to pretend to be the top film. Many well-known brands are actually this kind of ordinary metal film. Because it entered the market earlier, consumers mistakenly thought that this film was a high-grade film.
Fourthly, nano-ceramic membrane. The high-grade membrane is made by spraying "silicon" particles on the colorless original membrane layer by nanotechnology. This film is a new technical product, which has good heat insulation and transparency, and has the characteristics of not interfering with electronic signals and environmental protection. Generally produced in Japan.
5. Precious metal film. As the name implies, this kind of film also sputters metal on the colorless original film layer, but the difference is that all the precious metals such as chromium, titanium and platinum are sputtered. In addition, the sputtering method of this film is "magnetron sputtering". This is a complicated process, as long as the United States currently has this technology. The film is characterized by pure color. The "Youbo" sold by Li Chexing and the "Gu Wei" on the market are such films.
Six, double noble metal film. Only the CPFILM factory in the United States has this top-level explosion-proof heat insulation film. This film adopts the latest magnetron sputtering technology, and precious metals such as titanium and platinum are sprayed on both sides of the colorless original film. This film has a double layer of metal. Therefore, the reflection is low, the constant temperature in the car is maintained, and the fuel consumption is reduced. And the color is crystal clear and transparent, with the characteristics of one-way light transmission. Crystal clear from the inside out, looming from the outside. The brand "Weibang" of Dingli Glass Functional Film Company is this kind of film, which can also effectively block 99% of ultraviolet rays and protect your skin.
