    Default vinyl wrapping

    so the vt is almost ready for a new paint job and i want to do the interior
    last time i painted the interior of a car i took it all out used a plastic paint and it still scratched up pretty bad .

    so now im thinking about vinyl wrapping it all black ,taking each piece out and covering it

    QUESTION IS :
    how does vinyl wrap go about all the curves and folding behind things so you can see any edge of the wrap.
    ive never used it but dont see it been hard as iv used dark contact from woolies to tint an old mates windows LOL

    any inputs appreciated
    stroking is fine but id rather be blown

    The whole idea with modern vinyl wraps is that they conform to curves etc very well when heated with a heat gun.

    Just don't heat too much, as you'll melt the wrap..
