vinyl wrapping

[turbojolt]

Couple questions



How long does it take?
How much would it cost to wrap a mx5 hardtop roughly?
what kind of finish should I expect from it?

Cheers guys and girls

Well it's vinyl so the finish isn't great, shine wise, orange peely.
My old 09 work was was wrapped, done start oh jan 09, when i gave it back in may 11 it had a few edges peeling but nothing major.

Depends on what you buy, cast vinyl is much much better for surface finish than the polymerics.

for something as simple as an MX5 hardtop, I'd just spunk the £20 on some VWS2 from KPMF and have a crack at it yourself, lots of videos on youtube etc on how to do it. Just need a felt squeedgy and a hair dryer (hot air guns are too vicious unless you have an adjustable one to 50deg)

might give it a try then if i cant get it done on the cheap

[Stuart]

imho you wont get it done 'cheap'.... everyone is getting in on the wrapping game and costs are mental

[turbojolt]

only thing is i know im going to be **** at it i find wallpaper taxing lol and im man enough to admit my own short comings and not even bover trying lol

[Stuart]

Its hard, I give you that. I tried doing the hard parts of the VX to work out if I could be assed to do the whole thing.... made a mess and gave up.

BUT for simple things its actually easy :)
