What is Apterix CLR Diamond Midnight Navy Color PPF?
Diamond Midnight Navy is a deep blue-black finished in high gloss with brilliant diamond flake, built to look jet black in shade and shift to a visible deep navy under direct sun. It's the first gloss finish in this batch of listings, which is itself the key distinction from its nearest neighbors: Matte Magic Flame Dark Blue, the darkest blue in the matte lineup, delivers a similarly deep, animated color shift, but through a completely flat matte surface with no sparkle. Matte Black Blue, from the black-with-colored-accent family, uses a subtle blue undertone within an otherwise matte black finish, whereas Diamond Midnight Navy is glossy, sparkles under direct light from its diamond flake, and shifts its base color rather than just hinting at an accent tone. The result is a duotone effect: closer to jet black in shadow, and a clear, luxe navy in the sun.
Key features
- Diamond flake finish: navy blue-black base with reflective sparkle that catches light and adds depth under direct sun.
- Glossy, luxe appearance: looks jet black in shade and shifts to a visible deep navy under direct light, giving the finish a duotone character.
- Self-healing coating: heat-activated repair smooths out micro-scratches and light swirl marks from daily driving.
- Long-term durability: engineered for high resistance to UV fading, chemical exposure, and abrasion.
- Hydrophobic surface: sheds dirt and water easily, simplifying maintenance and reducing water spotting.
What vehicles is it best for?
Diamond Midnight Navy is built for luxury builds and nighttime color themes, working equally well on performance coupes and luxury SUVs. It suits owners who want a dark, refined look with dramatic sparkle rather than a flat stealth finish, and who want their vehicle's color to actively change character between shade and direct sun.
What problem does it solve?
Factory navy or midnight-blue paint rarely delivers this level of sparkle or duotone light behavior, and gloss vinyl wraps in similar tones tend to show swirl marks quickly while offering no real impact protection against stone chips or road debris. Diamond Midnight Navy solves both: the self-healing topcoat handles the swirl-mark problem that gloss finishes are prone to, while the diamond flake delivers a level of sparkle and depth that flat vinyl simply can't replicate. Because the base color is a dark blue, the blue pigment is the component most likely to soften first under prolonged UV exposure. Over years of direct sun, this can cause the tone to drift toward a flatter, greyer blue-black if the film isn't properly maintained, which is why the UV-resistant topcoat is a key part of this film's long-term performance.
Where is it available?
Apterix CLR Diamond Midnight Navy is installed at all four Supreme Wraps locations: Dallas/Frisco, Texas; Orlando, Florida; Scottsdale, Arizona; and Orange County, California. Full-vehicle and partial-panel installs are available at each location, with custom-cut panels matched to your specific make and model.

Frequently Asked Questions

Still have questions?
What are the requirements to become an APTERIX dealer?
APTERIX dealers are carefully selected, not mass-enrolled. We partner only with established automotive service businesses that demonstrate proven installation expertise, professional facilities, and an uncompromising commitment to quality. Our network is intentionally limited to elite detailers, wrap shops, and specialty automotive centers capable of meeting APTERIX installation and brand standards.
Shops with existing experience installing premium PPF systems—particularly current XPEL or SunTek dealers—are prioritized, as they already understand the technical precision and discipline required at this level. Not every shop qualifies, and that is by design. APTERIX is represented only by installers who can protect the integrity, performance, and reputation of the product.

How does APTERIX PPF compare to other brands?
APTERIX is positioned at the absolute top end of the paint protection film market—built for customers and installers who refuse to compromise. While many brands focus on scale, volume, or flashy variety, APTERIX is engineered around one principle: maximum protection, longevity, and consistency across every film we produce.
Compared to XPEL, APTERIX clearly separates itself by prioritizing film performance and long-term ownership over mass distribution and software dependence. XPEL is widely used, but APTERIX goes further—delivering longer warranty coverage on its flagship clear films, tighter quality control, and a more refined product lineup designed for premium installations, not production-line throughput.
Against color-PPF brands like Inozetek and PurePPF, the difference is even more pronounced. Those brands emphasize color variety first; APTERIX starts with protection-grade engineering and then layers color on top. APTERIX:CLR is not vinyl-inspired color film with a protective label—it is true paint protection film that happens to be color-dialed, delivering real impact resistance, optical stability, and durability that lower-tier color PPFs simply do not match.
APTERIX doesn’t try to be everything to everyone. It is deliberately built for the top of the market—luxury vehicles, performance cars, and owners who expect their protection film to perform at the same level as the vehicles it’s installed on. The result is a cohesive, high-end PPF system—clear, matte, and color—that outperforms mass-market and color-only competitors in the areas that actually matter: protection, longevity, and confidence over time.
