PPF’s (Paint Protection Film) primary purpose is to protect your car’s stock paint, while a Color Change Wrap will completely change your car into a different color. PPF is usually either gloss (doesn’t change the look of your car at all) or satin (goes over your paint to give a more matte finish). A color change wrap will give a small degree of protection to your paint, but PPF is a much thicker material and will give far more protection from scratches, chemicals and wear and tear.
