Quality Warranty
1. Top Protective film is included only on full rolls (59ft) of gloss vinyls.
For smaller, pre-cut pieces of glossy vinyl, the protective film is removed before shipping to ensure a smooth surface without air bubbles or creases. This does not affect the quality of the vinyl.
All matte/ satin vinyl wraps do not have a protective film, as their surface is naturally resistant to minor scratches and does not require additional protection.
59ft = full roll
69ft = full roll + 10ft pre-cut
75ft = full roll + 16ft pre-cut
2. Products ordered separately may have slight color variations due to different color lots.
3. Use a bubble remover/defoamer on the surface before applying for best results.
4. CAUTION! The images, colors, and finishes on the screen are approximate. For accuracy, refer to the color book or samples.

Gloss Black Blue Forged Carbon Fiber Vinyl Wrap
Product overview
Gloss Black Blue Forged Carbon Fiber Vinyl Wrap is a deep blue color with some irregular darker pieces with forged-carbon look underneath a glossy surface. On larger panels on vehicles, the finish will appear dark blue when viewed at normal distance, and the black and blue forged pattern will become more visible at shorter distances, and under strong reflective light conditions.
The pattern is irregular rather than arranged in a repeating diagonal weave. This lends a more random, broken-up carbon look to hoods, doors, fenders, roof, etc. and other big panels.
How Does Blue Forged Carbon Fiber Look in Different Light?
The glossy blue surface stands out well in strong direct or artificial light, particularly when viewed in large areas like the hood, doors and fenders. Where there are reflections moving across the body lines, the irregular forged pattern is more noticeable.
The finish is darker and deeper in lower light or shade conditions and some areas may appear closer to blue-black. The individual fragments are not so apparent from afar as they are in close-up photographs.
Forged Carbon vs. Woven Carbon Fiber
Unlike woven carbon fibre styling, forged carbon styling is an irregular, broken pattern. This Black Blue finish has darker pieces that break up the smooth blue finish rather than establishing a regular diagonal weave.
For a less uniform carbon pattern, select forged carbon. If you're into the idea of the familiar repeating carbon lines, a 3D, 5D or 6D woven carbon fiber wrap is the more suitable choice.
Gloss vs. Matte Black Blue Forged Carbon
| Factor | Gloss Black Blue | Matte Black Blue |
|---|---|---|
| Reflection | Stronger | Lower |
| Blue visibility | More noticeable under reflected light | Darker and more restrained |
| Forged pattern | Enhanced by moving reflections | More texture-led, less reflective |
| Best for | More dramatic exterior builds | Lower-reflection carbon styling |
Features Gloss Black Blue Forged Carbon Vinyl Wrap
Premium Material for Long-Lasting Performance
This wrap is made from high quality, polymeric, calendered film, and features a glossy surface and a somewhat irregular carbon and black-forged pattern. The blue areas and the darker forged pieces become more prominent as the angle changes, due to reflections across the gloss layer. The film is intended for use on car exterior and interior in the correct installation and maintenance conditions.
Exceptional Protection Features
The Gloss Black Blue Forged Carbon Vinyl Wrap is a removable decorative overlay for appropriate surfaces that have been painted. It can reduce direct contact between the painted surface and road grime, tar, and some everyday surface contamination.
Installation Considerations
This film should be installed in the same direction from one panel to another. Stretching should be controlled on bumpers, mirrors and compound curves because excessive stretch can distort the forged pattern from one area to another. There are also air-release channels, which help reduce trapped air during installation, but do not ensure a bubble-free installation.
Varied Applications
Whether you're going for a full wrap for that loud transformation or a partial one to just highlight sections like the hood or roof, this wrap can adapt to whatever you need. Its design is versatile; you can play with it using the blue and black in creative combinations to reflect your personality.
Affordable and Accessible
It doesn't have to break the bank to transform your car. A full roll of the Gloss Black Blue Forged Carbon Vinyl Wrap-59 feet-is under $700, while smaller sections for partial wraps can be purchased for under $100. Choose the size you want on our website and proceed with a seamless shopping experience, with options for global shipping.

FAQ
Q1. Does blue forged carbon fiber wrap look mostly blue or black?
A: It looks mainly deep blue from a normal distance. The darker forged pattern becomes more visible up close and under stronger light.
Q2. What is the difference between forged and woven carbon fiber wrap?
A: Forged carbon has an irregular, fragmented pattern. Woven carbon uses repeating diagonal lines for a more uniform look.
Q3. Does the forged pattern stay visible from a distance?
A: It becomes less obvious from farther away. Larger panels usually show the pattern more clearly as light moves across the surface.
Q4. Gloss or matte black blue forged carbon — which should I choose?
A: Choose gloss for stronger reflections and a brighter blue effect. Choose matte for a darker, lower-reflection appearance.
Q5. Can the forged pattern change when stretched?
A: Excessive stretching can distort the size and direction of the pattern, especially on bumpers, mirrors, and tight curves.
Structure
Our wrap films consist of 4 layers designed to ensure exceptional performance:
The first layer serves as a protective barrier for the underlying vinyl.
Directly beneath, you'll find high-grade polymeric vinyl fortified with pressure-sensitive acrylic adhesive.
Finally, a layer of 130um release plastic liner adds an extra level of quality to our wrap films. This plastic liner ensures a smoother, super glossy, and lustrous finish.

Frequently Asked Questions
RAXTiFY vinyl wrap is designed with air release channels to help reduce bubbles during installation, making it suitable for both professional installers and experienced DIY users.
However, installation difficulty may vary depending on the vehicle shape, surface condition, film finish, and installer experience. Full vehicle wraps, deep curves, bumpers, mirrors, chrome finishes, carbon fiber films, and other specialty finishes may require professional installation for the best result.
Yes. We recommend ordering a Small Size Sample before purchasing a full roll, especially if you are comparing colors or finishes.
Vinyl wrap color can look different under sunlight, shade, indoor lighting, camera settings, screen display, and different vehicle body lines. A sample helps you check the real color, finish, and texture before starting your wrap project.
Most RAXTiFY vinyl wraps come with a 2-year limited warranty against confirmed product-related defects. For full details, please read our RAXTiFY Warranty Policy.
RAXTiFY vinyl wrap is designed to last 2–3 years with proper installation and regular care.
Actual lifespan may vary depending on the film series, finish, climate, UV exposure, parking conditions, washing habits, and overall vehicle surface condition. Vehicles parked indoors or in shaded areas may help maintain the wrap’s appearance for longer.
For best results, hand wash the wrapped vehicle with clean water, pH-neutral soap, and a soft microfiber mitt or sponge. Dry the surface with a clean microfiber towel after washing.
Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, automatic car washes, polishing compounds, fuel spills, and high-pressure washing directly on film edges. Long-term exposure to intense sunlight, heat, rain, snow, dust, and pollution may affect the finish over time.
Yes. RAXTiFY vinyl wrap can be removed later when it is properly heated and removed with care.
Our vinyl wrap is designed to be removable without damaging factory OEM paint that is in good condition. For the safest result, we recommend professional removal, especially for full vehicle wraps, older installations, or vehicles with unknown paint history.
Please note that paint condition matters. Repainted surfaces, peeling clear coat, rust, dents, scratches, weak paint, or improper removal may increase the risk of paint damage.
