any car wrapping experts on here? was planning to paint the whole car but now thinking of wrapping.......urgently need advise on wrapping
Very interested in this myself. I understand that the total car can be done for 400 - 500 quid with a 10 year "materials" life expectancy. I'm guessing that one panel can be re-paired by re-wrapping in the same material code (which is a huge bonus). My only thing is, i want gloss black. I have only seen matt wraps and i hear that the gloss finishes are not great. So ya....... defo interested in getting some info also!
hi i do vinyl wrapping or at least have done it professionly. ask away ? full car wraps usally between 700 - 1000 (decent wrap) i only use 3m wraps and the gloss finnish is supurb you would not know the difference in wrap or paint at all. car cannot have rust oe major damage. also done lots of carbon and different effects
Do you have any close up pics, I have never seen a wrap that looks even 50% as good as a decent respray, they always have the normal vinyl ripple effect. Alex B
im located in kent although its no longer my profession, yeah i do ill upload some later sure i have some close ups. if you use cheap wrap then you get that horrible ripple effect if you spend the money on 3m or similar they youll get a great finnish

Pm me with the following Car Colour Door shuts yes or no And ill pm you a price back or call me on 07539228892 Many thanks Mike
would u have any link to the 3m vinyl? there so many vinyl out there and so many different prices. don't really know what good and whats not.
So much this! A gloss wrap isn't going to give you a show-car like paint finish, but it's good enough for a daily driver/race car/drift car/etc
I do vinyll wrapping, just finishing off a jeep i am doing. Will post pics later. The quality of the wraps has come on so much in the last few years, and you would be hard pushed to tell the difference to paint on looks alone. The darker colours like black etc aren't as deep as paint, but the finish can be amzing. Peolpe forget that it also depends on the condition on the paint beneath and occasionally will highlight flawed paint rather than hide it. Its not an option for everyone, but am happy to discuss pro and cons, including prices and finishes. Neil
