Crystal Metallic Silver vs Diamond Grey Blue

Covering comparison · updated août 2026

Diamond Grey Blue (#4A6570) reads darker than Crystal Metallic Silver (#BBB9B5), so it holds shadow in the body lines where Crystal Metallic Silver lifts them. Both films carry a metallic 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.

Crystal Metallic Silver vs Diamond Grey Blue: the differences.

The first difference between Crystal Metallic Silver and Diamond Grey Blue is depth: Diamond Grey Blue reads darker, so it hides body lines that Crystal Metallic Silver shows. The second is not the finish: both are metallic 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.
