What color is good for choosing car film? The right choice can protect oneself and your car! Nowadays, many friends, after buying a car, will apply a film to maintain the car. However, there are also requirements for film application, and there are many colors of the film. So, what color of film is good for cars and how to choose the color of the car film? Let's take a look together.
Generally speaking, the quality of car films is based on colorless and high transparency. However, due to the different uses of cars and the needs of different car owners, various manufacturers also produce some colored car films, ranging from charcoal black, dark gray, olive green to deep natural colors, light natural colors, etc. Most imported high-end car films come in over 10 different models and colors to meet the needs of different users. Even for so-called colorless transparent films, there is actually a difference between depth. Choosing a colored or darker car film appropriately can indeed make you feel more comfortable under strong sunlight, but it is important to ensure clear visibility on rainy days and at night, otherwise there may be danger, which is not conducive to oneself but may also endanger the personal safety of others.
There are two types of car thermal insulation films: front and rear windshields, and side windshields. Among them, the front windshield has the highest requirement for insulation film. According to the traffic safety regulations of the Ministry of Public Security, the light transmittance of the front windshield must be greater than 70%, on the premise of not affecting driving safety. The most taboo thing for the front windshield is to stick dark thermal insulation film. In addition, when choosing the UV resistance index of the front windshield film, the higher the better, as it can protect the center console components and prevent premature aging due to long-term exposure to the sun.
The darker the color, the better the insulation effect. This should be what most car owners believe and is very convincing, but the fact is not so. Some inferior films, although dark in color, do not serve the purpose of insulation at all. Firstly, excessively dark colored films can obstruct the driver's line of sight and pose certain safety hazards. Insulation, insulation, in fact, the heat that is isolated is mainly the heat brought by solar radiation, and the effectiveness of insulation depends on what causes the heat. There are three ways of heat transfer: heat conduction, heat radiation, and heat convection. The most significant impact on the internal temperature of a car among these three methods is obviously thermal radiation. Especially in summer, sunlight can increase the temperature inside the car, which is divided into visible light, ultraviolet light, and infrared light. Among them, infrared accounts for 53% and is also the main source of heat. Visible light is the foundation of human vision and the light that should be retained. UV rays have strong penetrating power and can cause melanin deposition on the skin, leading to darkening of the skin. Excessive exposure to UV rays can easily cause skin aging and lesions, as well as fading and aging of equipment in the car. It is also a type of light that should be blocked as much as possible.
So the color of the car film is not necessarily the darker the better, but rather the lighter the color, the better. Now everyone knows the reason! So when choosing automotive products, don't trust the salesperson's sales tactics. Only by experiencing everything can you know its pros and cons. Choose the appropriate automotive products based on the actual situation of the car you purchased.
