Dim Grey vs Dusky Grape

Q: What finishes do Dim Grey and Dusky Grape come in?

Both are gloss films — the sheen belongs to the film itself, so there is no separate finish to choose.

Wrap comparison · updated Aug 2026

Dusky Grape (#28252E) reads darker than Dim Grey (#807E7F), so it holds shadow in the body lines where Dim Grey lifts them. Both films carry a gloss finish, so the choice is purely the colour. Body shape, paint condition and the light you shoot in move both colours further than a swatch chip suggests. Seeing them on your own car settles it, free, in a couple of minutes.

Dim Grey vs Dusky Grape: the differences.

The first difference between Dim Grey and Dusky Grape is depth: Dusky Grape reads darker, so it hides body lines that Dim Grey shows. The second is not the finish: both are gloss films, so the sheen is a separate decision from the colour. Low light, curved panels and your own trim decide the rest, and none of that shows up on a swatch. Render both on your car and compare them there.
