Car mouldings are finishing strips on the doors, bumpers, door sills, aerodynamic components, and other body parts. These products can be used for protection of the car paintwork from various damages, as well as for concealing existing defects. Mouldings for car windows prevent ingress of moisture and dust into the gap between the window and body.
Types of car mouldings
According to the production material, body mouldings can be:
- Rubber. Uncoloured soft elements, which absorb impacts well and are inexpensive at the same time.
- Plastic. Often they are painted in a body colour, due to which they look aesthetic. They are resistant to almost all kinds of mechanical impact.
- Metal. They add sportive look to the car body. But in case of any smallest damage, the mouldings lose their aesthetic appearance, due to which they have short operational lifetime. The chromed products are more durable.
The mouldings for the windows can be of combined type. For example, there are rubber-and-plastic products on sale, as well as the accessories made of rubber and metal.
As a rule, manufacturers offer both body moulding kits for the exact car model and universal products. The latter are often more difficult in installation, as they require manual adjustment for car parameters. At the same time, a price for these accessories is significantly lower than that of the kits.
By the mounting method, the elements are divided into two main groups:
- Laid-on. Most often they are mounted with the help of a double-sided adhesive tape and do not require special skills for mounting.
- Built-in. They have clips or other fixtures for fastening. Usually, they require drilling of holes in the car body. Such method of moulding fastening is considered the most reliable.
By the mounting location, the accessories for car windows can be four-sided (full), three-sided, bottom, side, top.
Tips on car mouldings use
- It is recommended to perform installation of the built-in mouldings at a service station: performing of these works without corresponding experience is fraught with damaging of the paintwork.
- You need to thoroughly clean, dry and de-oil the surface before installation, in order to properly fasten the laid-on accessories.
- The environmental temperature should not be below 20 °C during installation of the car mouldings. The car should stay in a warm room for no less than 24 hours after finishing the works; it is prohibited to expose the car to moisture during this time.
- The mouldings do not require special care and can well withstand manual and automated washing.
- It is allowed to paint most of the products, which lets prolong their lifetime and conceal insignificant damages.
