Colour without giving up protection

Ceramic Pro SHIFT Colour PPF

SHIFT combines a vehicle colour transformation with the physical protection of pigment-embedded TPU film, including self-healing surface technology and long-term UV resistance.

Protection meets expression

Colour Change. Paint Protection.

Ceramic Pro SHIFT is not a conventional colour wrap. Its colour pigments are embedded through the TPU film construction, creating a stable and evenly distributed finish while the film provides physical protection for the paint beneath it.

The global SHIFT collection includes more than 120 standard colours across multiple finishes. Australian colour and finish availability should be confirmed with Ceramic Pro Australia or an authorised applicator before a vehicle is booked.

SHIFT is intended for owners who want a meaningful visual transformation without treating protection and styling as separate projects.

Colour Built Into the Film

SHIFT uses pigment-embedded thermoplastic polyurethane rather than relying on a decorative surface layer alone. Its composite structure gives each layer a defined role across colour, protection, adhesion and surface performance.

That distinction is what allows SHIFT to combine depth of colour with the physical properties expected from paint protection film.

Standard Colours Globally

A broad global palette supports subtle, bold, metallic and colour-shifting directions, subject to local availability.

TPU

Pigment-Embedded Film

Colour pigment is integrated through the TPU construction for stable, saturated and even colour.

PPF

Physical Paint Protection

SHIFT is engineered as protective film, helping defend against stone chips, minor scratches and UV exposure.

Ceramic Pro SHIFT technology

Colour Depth. PPF Protection.

See the colour. Understand the film.

SHIFT brings the visual decision and the protection decision together. The installer can confirm current samples, finish behaviour and suitability for the vehicle's paint.

The technology beneath the colour

Pigment-Embedded TPU

SHIFT's colour is incorporated through the film body. A coordinated layer structure then supports protection, adhesion, flexibility and the visible finish.

01

Depth and saturation: colour is designed to remain visually consistent across the installed surface.

02

Strength and flexibility: the TPU film is made to conform while providing physical surface protection.

03

Self-healing surface: minor marks in the film can reduce with exposure to suitable heat.

The SHIFT Installation Process

The most convincing colour is only part of the result. Paint condition, panel preparation, installation quality and edge finishing determine how the completed vehicle presents. Professional installers can prepare vehicle-specific SHIFT patterns in Ceramic Pro Smart Cut, use AI Auto Layout to nest panels across the film width and review the plotter-ready job before cutting.

01

Inspect: assess original paint, previous repairs and the suitability of the vehicle for a removable film installation.

02

Select: review current colour and finish samples, using visualisation tools where available.

03

Prepare and install: decontaminate the vehicle and fit the film using professional PPF techniques.

04

Review and care: inspect edges and joins, then follow the applicator's curing and maintenance advice.

SHIFT benefits in plain English

What Changes Beyond the Colour

SHIFT is selected for its visual transformation, but its reason for being is the combination of colour and physical paint protection.

01
Visual result

A Complete Colour Transformation

SHIFT changes the visible colour and finish of suitable painted panels without permanently repainting the vehicle.

Why it mattersThe vehicle can take on a distinctly different identity while the original paint remains beneath the film.
02
Physical protection

PPF Performance Under the Colour

The TPU film helps defend covered paint from stone chips, road debris, minor scratches and everyday exposure.

Why it mattersThe colour change performs a protective role a conventional decorative wrap is not designed to match.
03
Surface response

Minor Marks Can Self-Heal

The flexible top surface can reduce light scratches and swirl marks in the film with suitable heat.

Why it mattersThe finish has a mechanism for recovering from minor surface-level marking.
04
Future flexibility

Damaged Sections Can Be Replaced

Where practical, an individual film section can be replaced rather than refinishing the entire vehicle.

Why it mattersProfessional assessment can focus repair or replacement on the affected panel.
Choose by purpose

SHIFT or Clear KAVACA PPF?

Both are protective-film pathways. The difference begins with whether the original vehicle colour should remain visible.

Transform the visible colour

Ceramic Pro SHIFT

Choose SHIFT when colour, finish and physical protection need to be delivered by the same film installation.

Explore SHIFT technology
Retain the original colour

KAVACA PPF

Choose clear gloss PPF when the priority is physical protection while preserving the paint colour beneath it, with matte and black options for targeted finish changes.

Common questions

SHIFT FAQs

Key points to understand before selecting a colour and booking an installation.

Is Ceramic Pro SHIFT a vinyl wrap?

No. SHIFT is coloured thermoplastic polyurethane paint protection film. It changes the vehicle's appearance while also providing physical paint protection.

How many SHIFT colours are available?

Current global materials list more than 120 standard colours, with additional colours produced on demand internationally. Confirm the colour and finish collection currently available in Australia before making a selection.

Does SHIFT protect like regular PPF?

Yes. SHIFT is engineered as paint protection film with comparable physical protection characteristics, while adding colour through pigment-embedded TPU.

Does SHIFT have self-healing properties?

Yes. Minor scratches and swirl marks in the film's surface can reduce with heat. Deep cuts, chips, dents and damaged paint require professional assessment.

Can a damaged SHIFT panel be replaced?

Individual film sections can be replaced where practical. Colour matching, film availability, ageing and the condition of the underlying panel should be assessed by the installer.

Will removing SHIFT damage the original paint?

SHIFT is designed for professional removal from sound original paint. Existing paint damage, poor previous repairs or weak adhesion can increase the risk of paint lifting and must be assessed first.

Can a ceramic coating be applied over SHIFT?

Compatible Ceramic Pro coatings can be applied over SHIFT where the approved system and installation process call for it. Confirm the specific product and aftercare with the applicator.

Where can I get Ceramic Pro SHIFT in Australia?

Use the Ceramic Pro Australia applicator finder, then confirm current SHIFT availability, colour samples and installation capability with the selected business.
