Tesla gives you six factory colors; Indiana’s Cars & Coffee crowds have seen them all. If you crave Stealth Satin Midnight Blue or Gloss Iridescent Emerald, a dealership respray costs \$8 000+, torpedoes warranty, and still chips like OEM paint.
Solution: our KAVACA™ Color Change Paint Protection Film—installed once at Ceramic Pro Indiana County in Josephine—fuses custom color with 200 µm rock-chip armor and a 10-year, nationwide warranty.
Key takeaway: Color PPF = wrap-level creativity plus PPF-grade impact protection—no compromises.
