At Vanity Labs, we provide an extensive selection of colors and finishes, featuring over 6,500 different options including textures, solid colors, two coats, and metallics. We exclusively stock and utilize top-quality powders. Our services cater to a variety of industries, including automotive, boating, motorcycle, and manufacturing sectors. Powder coating is an exceptionally durable solution, perfect for personalizing your projects.


Powder coatings are based on polymer resin systems, combined with curatives, pigments, leveling agents, flow modifiers, and other additives.  These ingredients are melt mixed, cooled, and ground into a uniform powder similar to baking flour. A process called electrostatic spray deposition (ESD) is typically used to achieve the application of the powder coating to a metal substrate. This application method uses a spray gun, which applies an electrostatic charge to the powder particles, which are then attracted to the grounded part. After application of the powder coating, the parts enter a curing oven where, with the addition of heat, the coating chemically reacts to produce long molecular chains, resulting in high cross-link density. These molecular chains are very resistant to breakdown. This type of application is the most common method of applying powders. Powder coatings can also be applied to non-metallic substrates such as plastics and medium density fiberboard (MDF).


Sometimes, powder coating is applied using a fluidized bed technique. Parts that are preheated are dipped into a hopper containing fluidized powder, where the coating melts and smoothly covers the part. A post-cure process may be required, depending on the part's mass and temperature, as well as the specific type of powder used. Regardless of the application method chosen, powder coatings are user-friendly, environmentally sustainable, cost-efficient, and durable.

STEK is passionate about innovating film technologies that make having PPF installed on your vehicle more enjoyable. Each of our DYNOseires paint protection films comes with a 10-year manufacturing warranty against defects in material, bubbling, yellowing, or cracking and each of our PROseries PPFs comes with a 5-year warranty.

What package do I get?

When it comes to protecting your new vehicle, you have a lot of options. One of the most popular packages offered is a full front end, where our protective wrap goes over the front half of the vehicle, including your front bumper, hood, fenders, and mirrors. This full-front PPF package will stop the vast majority of rock chips and other damages from debris these high-impact areas otherwise are subject to suffer from. If you’re looking for complete peace of mind, we recommend opting for full-body paint protection film coverage. This will be the ultimate defense against anything thrown at your vehicle, whether you are daily driving, track racing, or off-roading. If you want to protect your new car but have other restrictions, a partial front end will get you PPF on the front bumper and then 18″ – 30″ up your hood and fenders, stopping the majority of common rock chip impacts.

How is PPF going to look over my paint?

If you’re in the market for Paint Protection Film, you may be worried that it will turn yellow, crack over time, or have more texture than your OEM paint. These are all legitimate concerns for old films and other brands that do not have the same innovative technology in their PPFs that STEK does.

Given the liquid-applied topcoat STEK uses, your factory paint will be enhanced to an extremely smooth and glossy finish (or matte if selecting our DYNOmatte PPF). The high level of clarity STEK PPFs offer means if you have metallic flake in your paint, our PPF will still allow the metallic finish to stand out. Our goal is to help make it as easy as possible to be proud of your ride.

Vinyl wrapping serves a range of purposes for vehicles, including full or partial exterior color changes, altering accent trim such as chrome window trim, door handles, and grills, among others.

Additionally, vinyl wrapping can be a commercial print graphic or advertisement, offering custom, unique designs and aesthetic elements to personalize your vehicle.

The vinyl used is temporary and can be easily peeled off without causing damage to the original OEM surface. In fact, it provides protection to the covered area until removal is desired at a later time.

Many customers opt to wrap their new vehicles immediately after purchase to maintain the integrity of the original paint until it is removed for lease return or sale.

It is crucial that vehicle wraps are installed and removed by professionals with expertise not only in the specific product or brand being applied but also with the skill to ensure no long-term issues arise during ownership. The shop and installer should possess knowledge related to your vehicle and its parts. We are committed to providing that expertise and service throughout the entire wrapping process.
