With a big wrap ideal you need 2 or 3 people doing it , the temperature has to be just right and the vinyl kept taught .
Ideally application fluid too .
You nearly always start from the middle and work your way out in a star pattern . The temperature of the item being wrapped has to be just right too .
If it's too cold the vinyl won't stretch enough , if it's too warm the vinyl is too soft and will wrinkle and distort too easily .
I tried wrapping a customers roof in matte black in the middle of summer once . Never again , it went as soft as hell and kept wrinkling up . When I did my old bonnet in carbon last year , it was so cold the vinyl went brittle and kept breaking .
I make my own application fluid using rubbing alcohol and distilled water . The alcohol retards the adhesive on the vinyl so it can be moved around , but it also evaporates quickly to allow the adhesive to bold to the surface .

The second colour is on the sides now don't get me wrong it's turned out ok
So tomorrow after work its colour number 3 and the cartoon on the mud guards
Then Sunday got a list to finish the outside such as aluminium trim around top glaze the door and lock on the door
I don't know if I should finish the insides and kitchen or PUT IT UP FOR SALE
I thought someone else could put there own stamp on it wots you guys think ie if you waste buy it would you like a finished one or put your own stamp on it a bit

The plastic was glued mate but fecked it up a bit when I put the wrap on heated part of it to get a bubble out of the wrap and the plastic f##king bubbled
I no wot you say about finished but your decor and kitchen would not be the same taste as mine that's wot I thought anyway

Looks good Paul .

As AD says , finished one every time , people could request the spec and it built accordingly?

I think people would like it finished just leave the decor neutral
