If you want your car to glow conspicuously in the dark, this can be done with a shrill Tron film. With this type of foiling it is not a flat film, but rather only strips at important points of the vehicle. And you can actually put these stripes anywhere on the car. For example, on the rims, but especially along the contours of the vehicle.
Apply the Tron foiling
The special thing about Tron foiling is the reflective effect of the stripes. Especially in the dark, the film glows and gives the car a very special design. The foiling is relatively easy to apply, but precise work is still essential. And also the surface must be absolutely clean and grease-free, similar to normal foiling or painting, so that it adheres optimally to the vehicle paint. You should pay attention to this if you want to achieve a good result, that too to the first visit to the car wash is still 100% available. Of course, in connection with the Tron foiling there is also the question of whether the paint will be damaged. But that is usually not the case. If you remove the Tron film, it can be easily removed. It looks different, of course, if you have coated the film with a clear coat. This can be the case, for example, if you want to permanently provide the vehicle with the flashy look and no retrofitting is planned. In this case, a coating with clear lacquer can be useful to prevent the strips from peeling off, in particular at complicated points on the vehicle body. When applying the Tron film, you should follow the recommendations of the respective film manufacturer.
Legal information about Tron foiling
Of course, the question with Tron foiling is whether it is legally permissible at all. And you can't answer this question with a general yes or no. Basically, it depends on the way the foil is reflected. And the pasted areas are also important. So there must be no changes in the light color or the light output of the headlights or other impairments due to the foiling. And the film must not be highly reflective or in various signal colors. But if you have a black vehicle, for example, and put it down with white stripes, there is nothing wrong with using it in traffic. In general, it is advisable to consult the TÜV and the local traffic authorities beforehand if you are considering Tron foiling. So there have been cases in which Tron foiling was not allowed and the vehicle was shut down on the spot. This was then justified with the road traffic regulations, more precisely with the StVZO §49a. According to this regulation, fluorescent materials and also retroreflective agents must not be used on a car. And both often apply to Tron foils with a strict design. Because it has the reflective factor. You can save yourself trouble if you consult beforehand. The legal requirements are very similar to one Chrome foil and should be clarified in advance.
