To Satin PPF or Not... Help...

Yes you are right. Best to get it done when your paint is in great condition. If not every flaw will show under it. They did a lot of buffing out minor scratches to get it to look right. And like I said this shop owner is a perfectionist and he is doing it. So he is going over EVERY piece of the truck to ensure it looks great.

 

I know what you mean. I'm the same way. But haven't seen this yet so you're welcome for something new. LOL.

 

Thanks buddy , did he apply wet and use a heat gun?

 

He does apply wet under and on top and then squeegee but no heat. Heat will ruin the film. One major reason it's so difficult to make it perfect.

 

Gotcha I'm look into it

 

Where are you located?

 

Baton Rouge la

 

Ah. I was thinking if you were near me I would connect you up with my shop.

 

I'm dying to see this on my magnetic grey I bet it would look so sick!

 

Oh I bet it would too.

 

I'm not really convinced you're sorry, just sayin' LOL

 

waiting for the final pics of this project for the past 2 weeks has been worse than waiting for the end of school or christmas morning when I was a kid. I can't imagine how anxious you might be, but then again, you might be a laid back kinda guy, who knows, in which case for us type A's out there, please light a fire under this guys arse and get this done hahaha

 

LOL. Oh believe me it's killing me to get my truck back. I have been by the shop a few times last week and have seen the progress. And it should be done Wed. Maybe Tue.

 

And no I'm not. LOL.

 

90% done. Get her back Tuesday night.

 

It's going to be the sickest blue Tundra on the road that's for sure!

 

I hope so.

 

Well the awesome crew at Auto Image 360 finished my beast a day early and I got to pick her up tonight. Let me know what you guys think.

 

that is awesome

 

Matte black wrap.

 

Looks amazing. Wanna drive to Elizabeth to check it out. Are we seeing it on the 24th?

 

As of right now yes. I might have to deploy out for work but hoping it is like Monday and not this weekend. Cause I want to be at the meet. And let me know if you want to drive out the country bro. I'm off the next 5 days.

 

Beautiful perfect man! You got me wanting to do mine!

 

Where you located?

 

I'm down in Louisiana what's the name of the clear satin wrap what brand , I found a vinyl wrap guy here and I asked could I start helping on the weekends , he was wrapping a Nissan today the z whatever and it was a sea blue almost the colors of yours the car was originally white , I shot the shit with him awhile and showed him your truck he quoted me and hell I can't afford that so then I asked to help out and learn and told him that I can do tint and he was like if you can do tint you can wrap with vinyl so I think I'm end up doing mine in sections weekly buy me a roll and start with tail gate and work my way forward .

 

This is XPEL Stealth PPF. A little harder to lay than vinyl wrap tho. Good luck. Let me know how it goes.

 

Yeah I'm do so many mods it's on the list thou

 

Unbelievable. It is such a gorgeous color and truck. You put together the best looking Tundra on the planet in my opinion. The challenge has been made, I must respond. But you'll always be first. Congrats. It looks great.

 

Wow. That's the best compliment I have ever gotten. Thank you.

 

Man that does look really neat. What kind of care does it require? How long is it supposed to last?
