Color PPF
Carbon
Carbon is a woven carbon-fibre texture finished under a gloss topcoat. It gives a mirror cap, a roof or a diffuser the appearance of a genuine carbon part — and, unlike a genuine carbon part, it does not spider-crack when something hits it.

Why this film
What Carbon is for
The look of a raw carbon panel, at a fraction of the cost and none of the fragility.
Reads as real carbon
A weave with real directional depth, not a printed pattern that flattens the moment you look at it off-axis.
Accent work that pays
Roof, mirror caps, spoiler, diffuser — a high-margin add-on that takes an afternoon, not a day.
Specification
Carbon by the numbers
The specification this film is made to — thickness and finish — and its warranty. Performance values publish here, with the ASTM method beside each, as the US laboratory report for this film comes in.
| Finish | Carbon weave |
|---|---|
| Warranty | 10 years |
Thickness and finish are the specification each film is made to. Performance values — transmittance, tensile strength, elongation, adhesion, hardness, weathering — are being measured on the film sold in the United States at a US laboratory, to the ASTM methods listed on the test-methods page. A value is published for a film only once that film's report is in hand, with the method beside it. Until then the row is left out rather than filled in.
How Carbon differs
The film closest to Carbon in the range is Specter. Carbon is Carbon weave, gloss topcoat; Specter is Tinted gloss — Grey (60% VLT) or Black (35% VLT). The look of a raw carbon panel, at a fraction of the cost and none of the fragility.
Every HAUT film carries a 10-year limited warranty against cracking, delamination, blistering and premature yellowing when it is installed by a certified shop. Registering it online is free and turns a claim years later into a record lookup — the full terms say what is covered and what is not.

An em-dash means that film carries no specified value for the column, not that it performs badly. Thickness and finish are the specification each film is made to. Performance values — transmittance, tensile strength, elongation, adhesion, hardness, weathering — are being measured on the film sold in the United States at a US laboratory, to the ASTM methods listed on the test-methods page. A value is published for a film only once that film's report is in hand, with the method beside it. Until then the row is left out rather than filled in.
