    Posted by Matt Taylor on October 3, 2012 at 10:53 pm

    Hi All,

    You may have seen my other thread where I was going to attempt my first wrap. Well I did it over the weekend and here is the finished product!

    In the end I ordered APS’ own branded Supreme Wrapping Vinyl. I must say I was VERY impressed with it, it was costly, but even being a complete amateur, I found the wrap very easy (although time consuming!)

    Just want to know what you think? I will get some more close up pictures in the next few days 🙂

    Thanks,

    Matt

    Great job- especially for a first attempt! Did you do it all solo?

    Thanks for the kind comments all 🙂

    I spent 8 hours Saturday and 6 hours Sunday doing it. Could have been quicker but didn’t want to rush it

    It wasn’t Avery. APS have launched their own wrapping film. It’s brand new and I was the first to use it as a customer, a guinea pig then lol

    And yeah I did the wrap solo, nobody fancied spending two days with me LOL

    Cheers all

    Matt

    P.S a few people have asked where they had it done. Already got another two wraps to do lol. At first I didn’t even want to attempt it but the first one was for a mate, so the pressure was off, so to speak! Bow I cant wait to wrap some more, and get on a course 🙂

    Matt, I will comment once you put up the close up’s of all the difficult areas :lol1: :lol1:

    Looks good from what can be seen though, even if you do get a couple more under your belt seriously consider doing a course, you will learn something no matter how much you think you know.
