Gloss vs. Stealth/Satin PPF
What is the Difference?
Choosing between Gloss and Satin (often called "Stealth") PPF is the ultimate way to customize your vehicle's look while ensuring world-class protection.
Gloss PPF: This is the standard "invisible" film. It is designed to match the factory clear coat of your car, enhancing its natural shine and making the paint look "wet" and deep.
Satin/Stealth PPF: This film is translucent and designed to turn any gloss factory paint into a sleek, matte finish. It follows the lines of the vehicle to provide a custom "frozen" look without the high maintenance of actual matte paint.
Why Choose Satin PPF?
Total Transformation: You can completely change the personality of your car without a permanent color change or expensive respray.
Ease of Maintenance: Unlike factory matte paint, which is notoriously difficult to clean and cannot be buffed if scratched, Satin PPF is incredibly durable and easy to wash.
Hide Minor Imperfections: The matte finish of the film naturally diffuses light, making minor surface flaws in the underlying paint less visible.
Why Choose Gloss PPF?
Classic Protection: Best for owners who love their car's original factory color and want to keep it looking showroom-new forever.
Maximum Clarity: High-quality gloss films offer near-perfect optical clarity, ensuring that the metallic flake or unique hues in your paint are never dulled.
