@WrapThatCar Thats Pretty good. I just did a VW Beetle for the first time. Took 2 of us about 12hrs.

I noticed that you used two pieces to do the back and hood. I have been wanting to get into the wrap business and they tell me I should buy a 60" vinyl printer, can you do car wraps with a smaller printer?

@DANATRINGWOOD stone chips won't really be that big of an issue unless you go drifting on gravel...haha... but you are right, you can always replace a panel. It's funny because some car bras are made with the same material to prevent the paint from chipping. :)

@WrapThatCar what about stone chips i guess all you have to do is rewrap the panel
-
@DANATRINGWOOD yes, they do a great job protecting against uv rays and keep the color from fading on the vehicle.

these big stickers are clever they must protect the paint and prevent rust ect
PT ruisers are the hardest to wrap in my opinion. How long did it take you to wrap that cruiser?

I have tried wrapping my PT hood before, with a regular roll of vinyl. We have wrapped a lot of body parts before, but the hood had more curve in it than most parts we've done. We are having issues getting it to lay flat, and not bunch up around the curves. Any suggestions? We have a heat gun (hair dryer). Could it just be the kind of vinyl we are using?

@broken202G it is exactly the vinyl. 3m Controltac and conform vinyls are MUCH easier to heat and stretch around contours without bubbling. You can wrap with regular vinyl, though very time consuming, but I would recommend using heat while going around the curves. Good luck :)
