Overview
Color Change That Actually Protects
Colored PPF is the most advanced color change solution available. Unlike a vinyl wrap, colored PPF provides a physical barrier against rock chips, road debris, and scratches — while completely transforming your vehicle's color. It's the only product that changes your car's appearance AND protects the original paint underneath from real-world damage.
We install STEK DYNOcolor — available in hundreds of colors including gloss, matte, satin, and specialty finishes. The result is a color change that looks factory-perfect, self-heals minor scratches, and protects your original paint underneath. It's significantly thicker than vinyl wrap (6–8 mil vs 3–4 mil) and provides real impact protection.
Colored PPF is the choice for enthusiasts who want a color change without compromising on protection. If you're considering a vinyl wrap but also want rock chip protection, colored PPF is the answer. You get both — in one film.

Why Choose Us
The Sleepr Difference
Protection + Color Change
Get a new color AND protect your original paint — all in one film application. No other product does both.
Hundreds of Colors
STEK DYNOcolor is available in an extensive palette including gloss, matte, satin, and specialty finishes. Colors that don't exist in automotive paint.
Thicker Than Vinyl
Colored PPF is 6–8 mil thick — significantly thicker than vinyl wrap (3–4 mil). That extra thickness is what provides real rock chip protection.
Self-Healing
Minor scratches and swirls disappear with heat, keeping the color looking fresh. Pour warm water over a scratch and watch it vanish.
Reversible
Remove the film and your original paint is preserved underneath — no commitment required. Perfect for owners who want to change colors again later.
Lifetime Warranty
All colored PPF installations are backed by a manufacturer lifetime warranty against yellowing, cracking, and delamination.
Computer-Cut Patterns
Every piece is plotted and cut to exact factory dimensions — no bulk cutting on your vehicle. Precise edges, seamless coverage.
Better Than Wrap for Protection
Vinyl wrap changes your color but provides minimal protection. Colored PPF changes your color AND stops rock chips. For enthusiasts who want both, there's no comparison.

How It Works
Color Selection
Browse our STEK DYNOcolor swatch library and choose your color and finish. We'll show you samples in person and can order specific colors if needed.

Film Installation
Computer-cut colored PPF is applied panel by panel with precise edge wrapping. Each piece is heat-formed to the vehicle's contours.
Delivery
Every panel is inspected for color consistency and coverage before you drive away. We walk you through care instructions.

FAQ
Common Questions
How is colored PPF different from a vinyl wrap?
Colored PPF is significantly thicker than vinyl wrap (6–8 mil vs 3–4 mil) and provides physical protection against rock chips and road debris. Vinyl wrap is primarily cosmetic — it changes the appearance but provides minimal protection. Colored PPF does both.
What colors are available?
STEK DYNOcolor is available in hundreds of colors across gloss, matte, satin, and specialty finishes. Contact us to see the full swatch library or come in and see samples in person.
Can colored PPF be removed?
Yes. It can be safely removed by a professional, revealing your original paint underneath in the same condition it was in before installation. The adhesive is designed to release cleanly.
How long does colored PPF last?
With proper care, colored PPF typically lasts 7–10 years. It's backed by a lifetime warranty against yellowing, cracking, and delamination.
Is colored PPF more expensive than a vinyl wrap?
Yes — colored PPF costs more than vinyl wrap due to the thicker, more protective film material and more complex installation. However, it provides significantly better protection and lasts longer.
Does colored PPF self-heal?
Yes. Like clear PPF, colored PPF has self-healing properties. Minor scratches and swirls disappear when exposed to heat — either from the sun or warm water. This keeps the color looking fresh over time.
Can I add ceramic coating over colored PPF?
Yes — and we recommend it. Ceramic coating on top of colored PPF adds hydrophobic properties, making the surface easier to clean and enhancing the color's depth and gloss.
How long does installation take?
A full vehicle colored PPF installation takes 5–7 days depending on vehicle size and complexity. Front-only packages take 1–2 days.
