TeckWrap
Gloss Metallic Dark Platinum Vinyl Wrap (RB12-HD) 1

Description

Most dark metallic greys lose their character when the sun goes down. Dark Platinum doesn't. Its fine platinum flake stays active in changing light, giving the color contrast and definition long after ordinary charcoal finishes turn flat.

Key Attributes

  • Metallic depth that stays visible: dark grey packed with fine platinum flake that holds texture in shade, not just under direct sunlight
  • Gloss with structure: polymeric multilayered hybrid film and metallic pigment create a reflective finish that keeps its clarity across large panels
  • Clean chemistry: Henkel solvent acrylic adhesive, transparent and weatherproof, peels residue-free when it's time for a change
  • Smooth surface control: premium PET release liner keeps the film tension-flat for a clean, mirror-like finish
  • Conformable: wraps around mirrors, edges, curves, and moderate recessed areas with ease
  • Paint-safe: removable adhesive leaves your factory finish untouched underneath

Dark Platinum sits between metallic black and deep gunmetal. In lower light, it takes on a dense charcoal appearance with a subtle metallic texture beneath the surface. As sunlight hits the film, the platinum flake becomes more pronounced, pulling silver highlights through the darker base and creating a sharper, cleaner finish. The metallic grain stays refined rather than flashy, which gives Dark Platinum the look of a factory performance color instead of a typical aftermarket grey. Park it next to a standard dark grey wrap and the added depth becomes distinctive.

OEM Match

  • Closest to BMW Dravit Grey Metallic
  • Same richness as BMW Sophisto Grey Brilliant Effect Metallic
  • Same metallic character as Audi Daytona Grey Pearl
  • Brighter in direct sun than Mercedes-Benz Selenite Grey Metallic
  • Darker than Porsche Volcano Grey Metallic

Love those factory greys from BMW, Audi, Mercedes-Benz, and Porsche? Now bring that same metallic character to your Mustang, Supra, C8, Model 3, or any vehicle that never offered it from the factory.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this calendered film, and does that make it a budget product?

No. Cast and calendered are manufacturing methods, not quality grades. Choose the construction that fits the vehicle and use.

Does a wrap protect my paint?

It helps against UV, road film and light contact. For stone-chip and impact protection, use PPF.

Do I have to buy all the film at once?

Yes. Order the whole job plus about 20 percent from one production batch for color consistency.

Can I wrap over a respray?

Only when the paint is fully cured and sound. Test repaired paint before installation.

Should I ceramic coat it?

Optional, but useful for cleaning and stain resistance. Use a coating formulated for vinyl wrap.
