    Posted by James Boden on October 3, 2018 at 10:34 am

    Hi Guy’s,

    Can anyone recommend a supplier of the above, please? Haven’t had any need for it before and there seems a lot of choices out there.

    It’s not for a wrap, just going across the sides of a car. Seen a lot of cheap prices on eBay but don’t want it falling off next year!

    Thanks

    KPMF do a polymeric vinyl, they sell it as wrap but its not cast but conforms really well and can be bought with air release. Done bonnets and roofs etc with out any problems. cheap as well

    Used the KPMF stuff to. It’s ok. Doesn’t look as good as expensive stuff but does the job well if it’s a fairly flat surface.

    Yes, falling off or not coming off… or… coming off and leaving the car matted in adhesive…
    eBay is full or chinese counterfeit vinyl. seriously worth avoiding!

    to be honest, most decent brands of carbon will do the job. my preference is the mat finish carbon and not gloss or printed effects.

    Hexis offer a good range of Carbon and nice material for fitting, not used them in a while but i’m sure the colour options have expanded even more by now.
