Which is darker, Gloss Grand Prix Blue or Gloss Red Embers?

Neither, really. Gloss Grand Prix Blue (#12687E) and Gloss Red Embers (#CE0000) 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 Grand Prix Blue and Gloss Red Embers come in?

Both are gloss films — the sheen belongs to the film itself, so there is no separate finish to choose.

Gloss Grand Prix Blue vs Gloss Red Embers

Covering comparison · updated août 2026

Gloss Grand Prix Blue (#12687E) and Gloss Red Embers (#CE0000) 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 Grand Prix Blue vs Gloss Red Embers: the differences.

The differences between Gloss Grand Prix Blue and Gloss Red Embers 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.
