Brushed Gold vs Brushed Graphite Metallic

Covering comparison · updated août 2026

Brushed Graphite Metallic (#373839) reads darker than Brushed Gold (#9F7E2A), so it holds shadow in the body lines where Brushed Gold 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.

Brushed Gold vs Brushed Graphite Metallic: the differences.

The first difference between Brushed Gold and Brushed Graphite Metallic is depth: Brushed Graphite Metallic reads darker, so it hides body lines that Brushed Gold 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.
