Would you say that ease of application is directly connected to the film being car-specific? Because I've done quite a lot of wrapping, but I used cheaper generic advertising film, it's thicker but reaaaally doesn't like corners and bends.
So I was wondering if using some special car wrap was going to be easier? Are the bubbles and defects easy to remove?

[peteyb]

You get what u pay for dude  s;) s;)  cheap stuff doesnt work very well, as u said, doesnt do corners either, get some proper wrap and try it again, ur be amazed at the difference  s:) s:)

[peteyb]

and finally people got to see some of my handy work!!! lol what did u guys think of it??

The black and white looks great and i don't like white cars as a general rule.
I think the VERY minor ripples on your bonnet look a lot better than the craters in mine.
If i was looking for a colour change I'd be happy to let you have a go.

Very smart, always wanted a white with black wheels, your added bits look great too but living in the sticks surrounded by muddy lanes white isn't really an option   s:| :| s:|

[peteyb]

Think the ripple was abit of something the wind blew under it, i was parked in the road, not ideal lol but glad people got to have a proper look at it  s:) s:)  can do more than white dude, theres loads of colors, should of brought the color chips with me!!

Hi Pete
Saw your car at Marble Arch meet and it looked stunning you would think it was a paint job great work

[peteyb]

Thats the crazy attention to detail, apart from the insides of the doors, which i would of done if i could got my door stays off, u wouldnt of been able to tell, if u could tell it was wrapped then surely thats a fail?  s:) s:)  glad people was impressed tho  s:) s:)

[Dave2002]

Looked at your car on Marble Arch really impressed with the work you have done .
I looked pretty hard and couldn't find anything wrong I am sure that as you wrapped it you will always find something that you think you could do better .

Would be good to see them, might be something I am interested in.

[peteyb]

Where about are you? I can leave them in the car and if i get some time and ur free i could make a appearance

[Richard41]

Herts, nr stevenage but no rush as it'll probably be another year at least, at another meet in the future would be fine.

[peteyb]

Sounds good, ill make sure i bring them up for the meets  s:) s:)

[puma2]

having seeing this car in person on the marble arch run  s:D s:D   what a fantastic job it was and only could see a bad bit when it was pointed out to me.

i would definitely let you do any warping work i wanted    s:D s:D  

your 2 looks really good in white  s:D s:D

[peteyb]

I couldnt wrap ur yellow  s;) s;)  it looks dam good, but cheers man, means alot, surely if all of you think its good enough then i must be good enough at it  s:) s:)

[Richard41]

As others said, you would would have to look very hard to know it wasn't a paint job.

I had most of my car resprayed a few years ago but it's already got a nice collection of stone chips, and I would like a colour that doesn't show the dirt so much, 5 mins after it has been washed & polished for several hours   s:twisted: :twisted: s:twisted:  

would definitely be interested in a wrap if I decide to do it again.
