Gunmetal Grey vs Hornet Yellow

Covering comparison · updated août 2026

Gunmetal Grey (#66676B) reads darker than Hornet Yellow (#F2AA00), so it holds shadow in the body lines where Hornet Yellow lifts them. Both films carry a satin 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.

Gunmetal Grey vs Hornet Yellow: the differences.

The first difference between Gunmetal Grey and Hornet Yellow is depth: Gunmetal Grey reads darker, so it hides body lines that Hornet Yellow shows. The second is not the finish: both are satin 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.
