is it worth using ?

bossbunny · 04-19-2011, 11:19 AM

NOPE. Took the paint off my front bowtie. Barely made it 2hrs down the road and it was flapping all over the place and there was dirt under alot of the pieces. Never agian.

You guys talking about vinyl wrapping...?

2010 Indy Pace Car · 04-19-2011, 12:24 PM

Saran wrap type I believe.... I was going to use it when I trailer up to Indy next month...

ud_lose · 04-19-2011, 12:26 PM

I spent much of the weekend polishing out those scratches for people. I think it does more damage then good.

LED Crazy · 04-19-2011, 12:28 PM

I tired it and I damaged my car in the process of putting it on. Your better off hoping for the best and get some touch ups when you get home

Jason7 · 04-19-2011, 12:54 PM

Just spend the money and buy some sheets of vinyl....won't mess anything up.

So Cal Camaro · 04-19-2011, 01:28 PM

Most that I saw in our group that wrapped, took it off because it had dirt underneath the wrap. Stuff no work. Use painters tape or vinyl as someone else suggested if you that worried about it.

Iwantone2 · 04-19-2011, 01:46 PM

And who said blue painters tape wouldn't work? Thank goodness I didn't buy the road wrap stuff.

Atti2de · 04-19-2011, 02:12 PM

Yup we had a wrap party at my house. Everyone that put it on took it off at out first stop or before we left the next morning. I left one spot on and it pitted my front bumper. STUFF IS CRAP!!!!

cybercoaster · 04-19-2011, 02:32 PM

Took it off halfway there. it started coming off and flapping. Now need a buff. However since an Arizon gator jumped up and bit my car on the way to the Grand Canyon, I need a whole new front end. :-(

CamaroSkooter · 04-19-2011, 03:03 PM

I highly doubt I'll ever use the stuff again.

Inferno LSX · 04-19-2011, 04:42 PM

Never use it again. It looked like crap, flapped in the wind, and worse of all dirt that got behind it scratched my new paint. Thank god for the people at Adams! I rolled over to their booth and they took the scratches out. So I bought some of their products. Great group of people.

cterry · 04-19-2011, 05:19 PM

i started to put it on Wed night, but looked like crap and thought it may flap so I didn't use it. Then heard all the reports of Damage while in Cabazon and that did it. Never used it. Put some blue tape at the bottom for the ride home, but my front end is shot already anyway.
