Color PPF
Black Matte
Black Matte is the stealth finish with a protection film's build underneath it. Flat, non-reflective, and self-healing — which matters more on matte than on gloss, because matte cannot be polished if it marks.

Why this film
What Black Matte is for
The blacked-out look, done as protection rather than as a wrap.
Matte that can heal
A marked matte panel normally stays marked. A self-healing matte film does not.
Even, flat, no hot spots
Consistent sheen across large panels — the test any matte finish either passes or fails at a glance.
Specification
Black Matte by the numbers
Production-lot values from the HAUT technical data sheet for this film, each with the ASTM method it was measured against.
| Finish | Matte black |
|---|---|
| Warranty | 10 years |
Values are from the technical data sheet for each film. Testing is carried out at the production line to the standards listed — national methods that are adoptions of the ISO standards named on the test-methods page. Where an ASTM method is equivalent it is given there for reference; no value on this site has been re-run to ASTM, and we do not print an ASTM code as though it had been. Where a film has no measured value for a property, the row is left out rather than filled in.

An em-dash means we have not measured that property on that film yet, not that it performs badly. Values shown as “≥” are guaranteed minimums from a released data sheet; values shown as “up to” are the highest recorded across tested lots. Those are different kinds of number and comparing them directly will mislead you. Values are from the technical data sheet for each film. Testing is carried out at the production line to the standards listed — national methods that are adoptions of the ISO standards named on the test-methods page. Where an ASTM method is equivalent it is given there for reference; no value on this site has been re-run to ASTM, and we do not print an ASTM code as though it had been. Where a film has no measured value for a property, the row is left out rather than filled in.
