Iridescent Matte Purple Black

KPMF Iridescent Matte Purple Black is a iridescent purple film from KPMF's K75500 range, catalogued as K75565. KPMF lists 4 other purple shades, so it is worth seeing them side by side before you settle on one.

This is color change wrap vinyl from KPMF's K75500 line. It resurfaces the car in a new color and can be removed later without touching the factory paint underneath, which is why wraps hold resale value in a way a respray does not. Vinyl changes how the car looks; it is not impact protection, so if you also want the paint shielded from rock chips, the same kind of color exists as color paint protection film at a higher price.

The iridescent finish

An iridescent film shifts color with viewing angle, so the car reads as different shades from the front, the side and in a photograph. Colors like this are chosen for exactly that effect and rarely photograph the way they look in person.

Living with purple in the Pacific Northwest

Purple almost always carries flake or a pearl shift, so it changes character between sun and cloud more than a flat color does. Photographs rarely capture what it does in person. Mid-tone colors are the easiest to live with here: they hide both road film and water spotting better than either black or white.

Care: hand wash with a wrap-safe soap and a soft mitt, and dry the car rather than letting it air dry.
