Color Paint Protection Film (Color PPF) is a multi-layer urethane film designed to enhance and protect automotive paint. It features a pigmented color layer fused with a self-healing topcoat, offering both vibrant style and durable protection. The film forms a tight bond with factory paint, creating a smooth, high-gloss or matte finish that resists damage from rock chips, UV rays, and contaminants.
The surface of color PPF is hydrophobic, which means it repels water, dirt, and grime, keeping vehicles cleaner for longer. A heat-activated self-healing layer repairs light scratches and swirls automatically when exposed to sunlight or warm water. The result is a finish that maintains its depth, clarity, and shine—without the need for frequent waxing or polishing.
Color PPF not only upgrades the look of any vehicle but also extends the life of the original paint. It combines color customization with the proven durability of clear paint protection, offering lasting style and resilience in one seamless application.

A gloss color PPF delivers a rich, mirror-like shine that enhances factory or custom paint colors. It’s ideal for luxury cars and sports vehicles that need depth and brilliance without compromising protection.
A matte color PPF creates a smooth, non-reflective surface that hides small scratches and adds a bold, modern appearance. It’s a favorite among Tesla and performance vehicle owners who prefer a clean, stealth look.
A satin color PPF blends the best of both worlds—soft sheen with light reflection. It gives your car a subtle glow that looks elegant under city lights and sunlight alike.
