How difficult was it to do yourself?

Steves Cleenz

yeah the whole car is being wrapped, it wasnt to bad to do the bonnet, done the passenger side today and that was a bit tricky in some places

Nice mate. Its looking more like a touring van every day. you'll need to put a big wing and green carbon stripes on it now.

How will it go with washing and polishing a wrap ?
Does it even need polished or would there be no point :hmmm:

Steves Cleenz
21-05-13, 04:18 PM
there are special matte products for vinyl, so i can still get it to bead up without a shiny finish :D

Smokey
21-05-13, 04:27 PM
Are there products to GIVE it a shiny appearance?

Steves Cleenz
22-05-13, 12:05 AM
you can use normal polish/wax on gloss wrap, but as mine is matte no need for the shine :D

Just seen this Steve. Ill tell you what mate, that looks absolutly minted. Love it. Looks to me like your a dab hand a applying wraps. Could be a very profitable side business for you. How much did it end up costing to wrap the full car.

And would you consider doing it for anyone else ?

It does look amazing Steve, really love how it sets off the signage on the van too. If it was mine I'd be well chuffed with the results.!
I've been tempted to look into getting the zed wrapped for the past year or so now since I saw it being done at top gear live on a old jag, Porsche and a Bentley coupe, the finished products looked great.
Just never know what a good price is and what's a bit ott.

Well, if you have the patience for detailing then you certainly have the mindset for wrapping, top work.
