Gloss Apollo Blue vs Gloss Aurora Orange

Covering comparison · updated août 2026

Gloss Apollo Blue (#053D9F) reads darker than Gloss Aurora Orange (#DC3F01), so it holds shadow in the body lines where Gloss Aurora Orange 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.

Gloss Apollo Blue vs Gloss Aurora Orange: the differences.

The first difference between Gloss Apollo Blue and Gloss Aurora Orange is depth: Gloss Apollo Blue reads darker, so it hides body lines that Gloss Aurora Orange 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.
