Which is darker, Gloss Black or High Gloss Nardo Gray?

Neither, really. Gloss Black (#474747) and High Gloss Nardo Gray (#4E505D) have almost the same relative luminance, so they read at the same level of darkness and differ in hue and finish instead.

What finishes do Gloss Black and High Gloss Nardo Gray come in?

Gloss Black vs High Gloss Nardo Gray

Covering comparison · updated août 2026

Gloss Black (#474747) and High Gloss Nardo Gray (#4E505D) sit at almost the same lightness, so the difference between them is hue and finish rather than how dark they read. 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.

Gloss Black vs High Gloss Nardo Gray: the differences.

The differences between Gloss Black and High Gloss Nardo Gray are hue and finish rather than depth — the two sit at almost the same lightness. 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.
