About this build

This Tesla Model 3 Performance came through our Los Angeles studio as an electric platform build — EV-specific spec considerations come into play: glass curvature, charge-port edges, and the way battery heat moves through the cabin all factor into the install plan. Satin is the in-between choice — deeper than matte, calmer than gloss, and the most forgiving on day-to-day swirl marks. Multi-service builds are sequenced deliberately — one finish has to fully cure before the next one goes on top, so the schedule reflects that order.

A Tesla Model 3 Performance (Highland) in satin dark green color PPF — a deep green with a gold shimmer that shifts across the body lines. The headlights were smoked and ceramic tint went on all side and rear glass.

The same satin dark green is on the Model X below. See more color PPF work.

What we used on this Tesla

Premium 8 mil color PPF — self-healing urethane with a ceramic-infused topcoat. Matte, gloss, and color variants available; plotter-cut from a digital pattern for the exact body panel. Pigmented top layer fuses paint protection with a color change in one film, so the underlying factory paint stays untouched.
Premium ceramic window film — 99% UV rejection, ~80% IR heat rejection on darker shades, no metallic layer (so phone, GPS, and cabin radar stay clean). Plotter-cut, never hand-cut on the glass.

Why these finishes were combined

Tesla builds with several finishes work when each layer is planned in sequence: paint protection film keeps the exterior factory-perfect against road debris and UV, while ceramic tint cuts the heat soak that California sun pushes into a closed cabin.

What to expect after the install

PPF cure window: avoid pressure-washing the wrapped panels for the first 7 days. Hand-wash only for the first 30 days. Properly cared for, the film holds its self-healing properties for 8–10 years.
Ceramic tint cure: keep the windows up for 3–5 days while the film fully dries. Small water pockets are normal during cure and disappear on their own. Lifetime film warranty.

Every Tesla build at our Los Angeles studio includes a written aftercare brief and direct text-line access to the installer for the first month. Questions about your specific build — get a quote or call (626) 537-3333.
