3. Self-healing: know the limits
All three are aliphatic TPU, so fine wash marks fade with heat, such as sun or warm water. Speed depends on film temperature, scratch depth and film age. Deep scratches, cuts or dents will not heal and need a replacement panel. We have no published brand-vs-brand test data, so we do not rank them in seconds or minutes.
●Will heal
Fine marks from washing and wiping.
●Won't heal
Deep scratches, cuts or dents; these need new film.
4. Stains & everyday cleaning
●Bird droppings & tree sap
Remove them promptly from any PPF. The CYBRIX ceramic top-coat makes the surface easier to clean.
●Bugs
Soak with a neutral shampoo first; never dry-wipe or use a stiff brush.
●Tar
Use a PPF-safe cleaner, test on a small area first, and avoid strong solvents.
