Color Flip White Pearl

TeckWrap Color Flip White Pearl is a color flip white film, catalogued as CK522-HD. TeckWrap lists 12 other white shades, so it is worth seeing them side by side before you settle on one.

This is color change wrap vinyl from TeckWrap's catalog. 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 color flip finish

A color flip film travels between two distinct shades depending on the angle you view it from and the light it is in. The effect is strongest on curved panels, where a single fender can show both ends of the shift at once.

Living with white in the Pacific Northwest

White hides road film and light dust better than any other color and stays looking clean longest between washes. It shows tar and brake dust along the lower panels instead, which come off with a dedicated cleaner rather than pressure. Light colors are the most forgiving to keep looking clean between washes, which is worth real money in a climate that puts road film on a car within a day of rain.

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