Variance Auto versus Temu: 3D carbon wrapping under the microscope
The comparison between Variance Auto and Temu from wrapping
There are many film-related products on the online market wrapping. And it can be difficult to find one's way through all the offerings. In this article, we put the spotlight on our wrapping and Temu films.
What is wrapping?
A wrapping film is an adhesive coating that can be applied to all or part of a car's bodywork. This could be the roof, bumper , hood,rear-end or even the rear-view mirrors.
Applying a wrapping to your car has many advantages, such as changing its appearance. Nevertheless, before making your choice of color and finish, you're probably asking yourself the following question: what's the best wrapping offer on the market? To answer this question, you need to consider several parameters:
- wrapping features;
- Thepackaging in which your wrapping will be delivered;
- The installation method used ;
- Thevisual appearance of wrapping before and after installation.
Variance Auto versus Temu: wrapping black carbon under scrutiny
On our social networks, many people compare us to Temu. In order to give you a clear and precise answer as to which is the best offer on the market in terms of wrapping, we have used a similar wrapping film from both brands: a black carbonwrapping .
The characteristics of wrapping
On our website Variance Autowhen you go to the product sheet for the wrapping CARBON-4903a used in this test, you'll find all the information you need about it. You'll find :
- Texture: carbon ;
- Its color: black ;
- Thickness: 145 microns;
- Its range: 3D (and therefore thermoformable);
- The glue it uses: Airflow;
- Outdoor durability: between 7 and 10 years;
- Laying: dry.
All this information can also be found in the technical data sheet, available on the product page in question. In the same data sheet, you'll also find care instructions.
If we go to Temu, for a similar reference, you have access to less information. These are limited to texture, color and installation. As for the range, you can take a guess, as it says that you'll need a heat stripper or a hair dryer. The use of these tools indicates thermoforming.
What's more, at Variance Auto you can choose the cut of your wrapping, which you can't do at Temu. In fact, you can order your wrapping black carbon by the linear metre or to the exact dimensions of your car. On Temu's side, you have no choice but to opt for a predefined cut, and therefore far from the dimensions of your vehicle. As a result, you'll need to order several pieces to apply wrapping.
As a result, Variance Auto gives you a clearer, more precise overview of the wrapping you want.
The wrapping CARBON-4903a: our best seller
The wrapping
When you receive your wrapping carbon black, the least we can say is that there's a clear difference between our two brands. Unlike Temu, where the wrapping is packed in a plastic bag only, at Variance Auto you'll receive it in bubble wrap, itself placed in a cardboard box. This ensures that your wrapping won't arrive damaged in your hands.
The installation method used
As mentioned above, the installation method used is indicated on the websites of our respective brands. However, at Variance Auto, we want to help you as much as possible to install your wrapping on your car. That's why, unlike Temu, you'll receive installation instructions with your order. These instructions will tell you everything you need to know to install your wrapping successfully.
In addition to these installation instructions, you'll find a wealth of video content and tutorials on our social networks. Follow us on Instagram and YouTube.
The visual aspect of wrapping
The desire to install a wrapping on your car probably stems from the fact that you want to change its aesthetic appearance. Choosing a qualitywrapping is therefore essential.
Both before and after installation, the visual appearance of wrapping is important. Before installation, we noticed that Temu's wrapping film was wrinkled. Once installed on your car, our wrapping, unlike Temu's, will not wrinkle or streak.
We also wanted to test the quality of wrapping. To do this, we used a copper mesh sponge and ran it over the wrapping. Once again, no scratches were found on our wrapping Variance Auto . However, this was not the case for Temu's wrapping .
In conclusion, we can clearly see that wrapping Temu is of lower quality than ours. Admittedly, it's also less expensive, but the quality suffers. We hope this review helps you to choose the best offer available on the wrapping market.
