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
Production-lot values from the HAUT technical data sheet for this film, each with the ASTM method it was measured against.
| Finish | Carbon weave |
|---|---|
| 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.
