Crystal vs Deep Blue

Wrap comparison · updated Aug 2026

Crystal (#12121A) and Deep Blue (#00165C) sit at almost the same lightness, so the difference between them is hue and finish rather than how dark they read. Crystal comes in chrome; Deep Blue in metallic. 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.

Crystal vs Deep Blue: the differences.

The differences between Crystal and Deep Blue are hue and finish rather than depth — the two sit at almost the same lightness. The second is the finish: Crystal is offered in chrome, Deep Blue in metallic. 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.

Side by side

Crystal is a wrap in the Specced catalogue, swatched at #12121A. It renders with a chrome finish — the sheen belongs to the film itself, so there is no separate finish to pick. Body shape, paint condition and the light you photograph in all change how it lands, so the only honest preview of Crystal is one made from a photo of your own car.
