Apex Chroma
Colour without consequence
Colour PPF combines a new finish with the physical protection expected from premium paint protection film. The original factory paint remains underneath, while the selected film becomes the visible surface.
It is a route for owners who want a more individual car without treating protection and appearance as separate projects. Apex plans the finish, panel coverage, edge strategy and aftercare together.
Finish direction
From subtle change to a complete new identity
The right choice depends on the vehicle, its trim and how reversible or expressive the owner wants the result to feel.
Finish choices
A broad catalogue spanning understated factory-style tones and more individual colour directions.
Gloss
A high-clarity route for saturated colour and a polished, paint-like appearance.
Satin and matte
Lower-sheen finishes for owners who want a more architectural surface character.
Bespoke combinations
Dual-tone and detail-led planning for vehicles where roof, shoulder line or trim treatment matters.

★★★★★Questions owners ask
Straight answers before you book.
Is colour PPF the same as vinyl wrap?
No. Both can alter appearance, but colour PPF is selected as a paint-protection product with a protective top coat and impact-resistant film construction.
Can colour PPF be removed later?
Yes, it is designed as a professionally removable film route. Removal condition still depends on the paint condition, installation history and how the vehicle has been cared for.
Can I choose gloss, satin or matte?
Apex can plan gloss, satin, matte and selected special finishes around the car, trim and intended overall character.
How is colour PPF priced?
Vehicle size, body complexity, film choice, panel coverage and preparation determine the quote. Send the model, year and preferred finish for tailored guidance.
How long does a full colour PPF installation take?
A full transformation requires inspection, preparation, careful panel fitting and final quality control. Apex confirms the expected studio time after the vehicle and finish are agreed.
