But does it really work?

👉 Can minor scratches on WooMagicar Paint Protection Film truly heal themselves?

What Is Heat Self-Healing in Paint Protection Film?

Heat self-healing refers to the ability of a paint protection film to eliminate light surface scratches and swirl marks when exposed to heat.

WooMagicar PPF is made from high-performance TPU material combined with an elastic self-healing topcoat. When the surface is slightly scratched, heat causes the polymer chains to reorganize, allowing the film to return to its original smooth state.

How Does WooMagicar’s Self-Healing Technology Work?

The self-healing performance of WooMagicar PPF relies on three key factors:

Highly elastic TPU base layer for strong rebound ability

Dense self-healing topcoat that reacts quickly to heat

Heat activation mechanism triggered by sunlight or warm water

When minor abrasions occur, the film surface deforms temporarily rather than tearing. Once heat is applied, the material relaxes and the scratches gradually disappear.

📌 Important Note: Self-healing only applies to light surface scratches. Deep cuts or penetrations cannot be repaired.

What Temperature Is Required for Self-Healing?

WooMagicar’s heat self-healing does not require extreme conditions. Common activation methods include:

☀ Direct sunlight (approx. 40–60°C / 104–140°F)

💧 Warm or hot water rinse

🔥 Heat gun (recommended for professional use only)

In daily driving conditions, normal sunlight is often enough to eliminate most minor scratches without any manual intervention.

Is Stronger Self-Healing Always Better?

Not necessarily.

A high-quality paint protection film must balance:

Self-healing capability

Yellowing resistance

Weather durability

Coating hardness and flexibility

WooMagicar focuses on long-term performance, ensuring the film doesn’t heal quickly at first but degrade prematurely over time.
