Unless the paintowrork underneath is absolutely pristine it *may* cause a few problems at removal time, e.g. It may start "lifting"

Also any small pit marks will show through as the vinyl should fit as snugly as a condom

No paint will lift..

That impressed with Debs bike, we have decided to have a look for ourselves at this place:

If you want a good job, I would recommend having the Avery Dennison Supreme Wrap.. Best on the market, even though it's pricey at £28 per 1m x 1.5m but well worth it

I really like the Mirror Carbon effect,
Were they difficult ?

Easy :)

Debs did you take all the panels of to do it, or was some done in-situ?

Only the tank and nose cone was in situ. All others came off.

Very nice Debs :punk:

What were the most difficult parts to do ?
What wrap did you use ?

You made me anxious to try it also...

It was all difficult to do, but I would say the tank was a nightmare.

Patience I can find. Is a five metre roll enough?

Yes it will be. I got 6 in case I made a mistake and had to try again, which happened a few times.  :mfr_lol:

I think that looks really good Debs. Any hints for those of us considering having a crack at this?

You will need a lot of patience. It's not that easy..

Here's the link if any of you are feeling ambitious :)

Looks great, I always wondered if wrapping was worth it, looks good.

Also, have you got a sly little camera on the offside mirror per chance?  Looks good.

Yes I do.. Records to an SD Card  :whistling:

For those few who have missed me over the past god knows how many months, I have Vinyl Wrapped my baby..

It took me ages to do, and although there are parts I'm not to happy with, I think I did a decent job for my first attempt.

Can I change tack slightly to washing machines please  :ohplease:

A couple of weeks ago we had a new machine washing delivered and set up,(the set up part is to me quite intregal to my problem I think) a lovely high tech super duper thing but sometimes it makes a truly horrible banging noise on the spin cycle, now it has a 9kg load limit and there is no way we are matching let alone exceeding 9kg, but if we really lighten the load it's silent, the machine doesn't rock from side to side and it feels solid, I've even put a spirit level across the top and it's level.

It's a job good that that we live in a detached property or the neighbours would be quite understandably knocking on our door.

I want to contact Comet/PC world but Julie isn't too keen (????????)

Any ideas ?

The banging is caused by the load being all in one place in the drum. 

3 options you have is...

1. Before it goes in to the final spin, open the door and pull the laundry apart from itself.

2. You could take the top off and put some foam down the sides.

3. You can send it back for a replacement but you many find it will still happen.

Other than that there's not much you can do..  :no:

Debs look up north west 200 or the skerries or the ulster gp ..or closer to home oliver mount scarbourgh .. cock of the north meet or gold cup .. or isle of man the Southern that happens after TT fortnight and before the Manx TT .
It's pretty much watching some of the most close up road racing on could ever wish for .
Eg me an the Mrs ain't been over for a few yrs but usually rent a cottage for a week tour some of Ireland watch races at end of week Then get the ferry back  :laugh:

I know what the TT & NW200 is, I just didn't realise you were talking about those..

:censored: Someone hit me on the head please..  :hammer:
