  • @CKWraps
    @CKWraps  Před 9 lety +35

    Kudro Rico The mirrors hadn't been done on this car yet so it wasn't a re-wrap. This eclipse belongs to a friend of mine who I sponsored with a full wrap. As for brand, I prefer to stay away from 3m. I find it's hard to work with and very over priced. Their carbon fiber also isn't as nice as Vvivid Vinyl, I only use carbon fiber from Vvivid Vinyl. I would recommend using Avery Dennison if you're a beginner. Avery is very easy to use and also more cost effective, I consider Avery to be the Rolls Royce of vinyl brands.
