Short answer: Red colored PPF turns your car a bold red, from bright Ferrari-style reds to deep crimson, burgundy and plum, with a self-healing 8 mil TPU film that also protects the paint. Red is the classic sports-car colour, and because the film blocks UV, it helps prevent the fading that plain red paint is famous for.
Popular red shades & finishes
- Bright supercar reds: Healing Ferrari Red, Cuprite Red (Porsche), Strawberry Red, Tata Red, vivid and classic.
- Deep reds: Crimson Red, Burgundy Red, Plum Red, Dragon Blood Red, Vampire Red, rich, moody tones.
- Specialty: Rose Red, Brocade Red and Black/Red color-shift for something rarer.
Why red colored PPF
Red is the boldest, most timeless performance colour, and the one that benefits most from protection. Red pigments fade fastest under UV, so a UV-blocking, self-healing colored PPF keeps the colour vivid far longer than red paint or red vinyl, while shielding against stone chips on the nose and bumper.
Durability & warranty
This is a self-healing 8 mil TPU film with a glossy hydrophobic surface, good for up to a decade and protected by a 10-year limited warranty. Small swirls disappear once the panel warms up.
Red colored PPF vs red vinyl wrap
A red vinyl wrap changes the colour for less, but it doesn't self-heal and offers little protection against stone chips. Red colored PPF costs more, but the self-healing TPU keeps it looking fresh and shields the factory paint. Choose vinyl for the cheapest colour change; choose colored PPF when you want the look and protection in one film.
How much does red colored PPF cost?
