  • 3m digital wrap film…is it as good as im told

    Posted by Cheryl Smith on July 22, 2013 at 5:12 am

    Morning everyone…

    I usually us grafiywrap, but in this heat I found the last lot I used was awful…uncooperative to fit even tho the car was not baking hot.

    Now I have a very big Crafter to wrap and don’t mind paying extra for ease of fit…and ive been assured that I would lose around 1/4 of fitting time using the 3M IJ180Cv3 and the laminate… Has anyone used this stuff… and should I use the 30 or 50 micron over laminate for this sort of van…..

    The finish looks lovely on the samples.

    Very greatful for any feedback on these please….Id hate to make an expensive mistake.

    thanks in advance

    Cheryl

    Hi Cheryl

    The IJ180 is brilliant stuff. We did a fiesta race car in it on Thursday and it was 28 degrees and it was still easy to fit, however I think the crafters have deep recesses on the sides don’t they? You may have to go for the 380.

    Hi Cheryl

    Sorry I was thinking of a Master – different van altogether!

    Should be fine. I did a partial on the back of a Sprinter with 180 which is basically the same and it worked well.
