COLOUR PPF SUPPLIER CANBERRA
Spectra colour paint protection film for Canberra wrap and restyling shops.
Canberra wrap shops and restylers can buy Defcon Spectra colour PPF by the roll: more than 200 colours in gloss and satin, 18 m rolls on selected colours, and a 7-year limited warranty registered through e-Warranty. Spectra changes the colour and protects the paint in one film, which vinyl cannot do. This page covers how colour PPF is quoted, how it compares with vinyl, and freight to Canberra: about $25.78 by CouriersPlease on a 16-litre drum to a Canberra postcode. A free sample roll lets a Canberra workshop test the film on one vehicle before quoting the run.
Colour Work
In Canberra
Canberra's market is weighted to fleets and dealerships, so colour PPF sits beside the clear fleet and pre-delivery work a shop already does.
The ACT market is weighted to fleets and dealerships: government and contractor vehicles filmed in runs, and new stock filmed at pre-delivery.
Spectra
By The Roll
Spectra is the colour line in the Defcon range: 200+ colours, every colour family in gloss and satin, 18 m rolls on selected colours, and a 7-year limited warranty. It is paint protection film first, so the colour comes with self-healing and impact protection.
Prices are listed ex. GST in the online shop, no account needed. The colour PPF wholesale page covers the national range, and the wrap shop page covers how vinyl skills transfer to film.
Spectra
Against Vinyl
The question customers ask is colour PPF or vinyl. Vinyl has no meaningful protective spec; Spectra brings puncture resistance and a self-healing top coat to the colour change. The PPF vs vinyl wrap comparison sets out where each film fits.
Quoting A
Colour Change
Before quoting, read the restyling quote guide: it sets a Spectra job against a vinyl job line by line. A free sample roll lets the customer settle the colour before the quote is final.
Colour and clear film are cut from the same OEMC pattern library on the DFA Plotter, so colour work does not need a second workflow. Fleet contracts ask who filmed what and when, so a run of twenty vehicles produces twenty e-Warranty records tied to roll serials.
Freight To
Canberra
Orders dispatch from Melbourne by CouriersPlease or TNT Road Express. A 16-litre drum of Installation Gel to a Canberra postcode quotes about $25.78 and $27.06 respectively, and orders over $1000 ex. GST ship free.
Transit is quoted at checkout: CouriersPlease at 1 to 4 business days and TNT Road Express at 1 to 3, with the exact figure shown for the postcode entered.
Colour rolls can travel with clear rolls and consumables in the same order.
Warranty That
Stays With The Car
A Spectra job is registered through e-Warranty within 7 days of invoice against a serialised roll, and carries a 7-year limited warranty under normal use and proper installation.
The record transfers to later owners while it is valid, so the colour change and the protection behind it stay documented when the car is sold.
Training
And Support
Installation training, software setup and tooling advice come from the supply team, in English or Chinese, rather than a separate vendor.
The Practice Pack gives new installers real film to train on before a customer car.
FAQ
-
Is colour PPF better than vinyl wrap?
They do different jobs. Vinyl changes the colour; Spectra changes the colour and protects the paint, healing light scratches with heat and taking stone chips that tear vinyl.
-
Do I need a separate workflow for colour film?
No. Colour and clear film are cut from the same OEMC pattern library on the DFA Plotter.

Does Spectra come in satin?
Yes. Every Spectra colour family runs in gloss and satin, so a shop can quote a gloss colour change and a satin variant on the same car.
-
Does the warranty transfer when the car is sold?
Yes, while a valid e-Warranty record exists the warranty transfers to later owners.
-
Is there a longer roll for full-car colour changes?
Selected Spectra colours come on 18 m rolls; standard rolls are 1.52 m x 15 m.
