Our official representatives conducted a series of large-scale tests of the updated removable protective and decorative coating "AutoBronya 2.0". Created on the basis of the company's 15 years of experience in developing professional materials, this innovative composition is designed for effective temporary and long-term protection of paintwork and automotive optics from chips, gravel, scratches, corrosion, and aggressive road reagents.
To clearly demonstrate the protective properties and elasticity of the composition, the company's specialists applied it to the hood, fender, and headlight of a car, after which they subjected the parts to extreme loads.
Results of the conducted tests:
1. Hiding defects and scratches
During the preparation of the parts, scratches and scuffs were deliberately applied to their surface with sandpaper. Already the first layer of "AutoBronya 2.0" completely filled and masked the minor damage. The composition absorbs roughness, returning a smooth, even surface to the treated elements.
2. Rigid crash test: protection of optics and body elements
To test anti-gravel resistance, direct strong blows were delivered to a car headlight with 4–5 layers of coating applied, using large cobblestones the size of a palm and a fist, simulating gravel impact at high speed.
-
Result: The coating took the entire kinetic potential of the impact upon itself. The headlight remained completely intact, without cracks or glass destruction.
-
Metal protection: When tested on a steel fender with factory paintwork, the coating absorbed frontal impacts from heavy objects and brick fragments. The factory paintwork under the protective layer received no damage or chips.
3. Clean removal and unique maintainability
After the tests were completed, the resulting dense elastic film was easily removed by hand without the use of solvents and without damaging the factory enamel.
-
Local repair: Unlike adhesive PVC and polyurethane films, in the case of deep scratching, the "AutoBronya 2.0" coating does not need to be removed entirely — it is enough to carefully touch up the damaged area with a brush, and the material will naturally merge with the old layer.
4. Application recommendations and scientific-technical transparency
Specialists identified important technological features of application:
-
Application method: The most even protective layer is obtained using a roller, brush, or airless spray unit. The use of a standard air spray gun is not recommended, as the microparticles of the composition dry out directly in the air.
-
Compatibility with the substrate: On original factory paintwork, the coating works flawlessly. If the part was previously painted using makeshift methods with unstable enamels or drying was not completed, the coating reveals defects in the substrate. On non-original plastic elements with aggressive plasticizers, a reaction of the plastic is possible. All the obtained nuances were taken into account by NPO "Bronya" when updating the application instructions.
Main advantages of "AutoBronya 2.0":
-
Saving time and budget: application of the coating is 50% faster and significantly more cost-effective than standard car body wrapping with films.
-
All-weather protection: the composition is resistant to cracking and retains high elasticity even in extreme winter conditions at temperatures down to -50 °C.
-
Waterproofing and anticorrosion: the elastic barrier isolates metal and plastic from moisture, salt, and aggressive chemicals.
-
Transparency or style: by default it is supplied in transparent form to protect the original color, but it is easily pigmented to create an individual shade.
