Heat Wave Causes Paint Bubbles on Vehicles, Turning Them into Road Eyesores
China’s heatwave, nearing 40°C, is causing car protective films to bubble like “bubble wrap” on parked vehicles, described as “mobile jellyfish” when driven. Reactions mix amusement over the spectacle with safety concerns. Experts note film removal techniques can cause bubbles, but extreme heat in parked cars also tests material limits. This has spurred a 30% surge in film upgrades, potentially advancing the $2.1 billion vehicle wrap market.
