VViViD® Black True R Carbon Fiber Vinyl Wrap Roll with Air Release Technology (10 Foot by 5 Foot)

good quality. I installed it by myself but you have to be patient. my patience has ran out because of the air bubbles were bad. I removed it several times and put it back again. Also, the adhesive is strong and hard to remove if you make a mistake. My only advice is that you should have someone to install it with and the weather is not hot because the adhesive sticks very strong. What I did with the air bubbles was to use a cutter to remove all the air bubbles so that the air inside disappears. But there should only be small holes so that the air comes out. So far the quality is good. The only problem is that the vinyl scratches easily but that's okay because I just put wax on it so that the small holes I drilled to get the bubbles out and the scratches are not obvious.

Alright, let me start with saying that this is my first time wrapping anything. I don’t even wrap gifts lol With that being said, I am completely amazed at how good this came out. Like, I really can’t believe I did this myself! I was very hesitant at first, but with a few DIY videos for tips.. I’m extremely happy with the outcome. The negative reviews here talk about the adhesive, the vinyl becoming brittle, the vinyl getting wrinkled, but literally all of that could of been fixed with a handy dandy heat gun. Even a hair dryer. Some tips I learned and wish I could’ve read here were: - CLEAN YOUR ITEM THROUGHLY A simple wipe down with a microfiber won’t do the trick. Isopropyl Alcohol or clay barring will remove contaminants that would affect how well the vinyl sticks. Especially towards the edge or where you come to a fold. - ALWAYS USE A LITTLE MORE FROM YOU NEED once you measure out how much you need, cut off an inch or two more. This will help when you come across wrinkles, air bubbles, or “fingers” (big long wrinkles you can’t squeegee out) the extra vinyl, make it easier to pull up on your vinyl to squeegee anything out. It also helps when you pull on your vinyl, it prevents possible tearing. Also it gives reassurance that you’ve cut enough to be able to wrap properly around your edges folds or creases. - A HEATGUN/HAIR DRYER IS YOUR BEST FRIEND Use minimal heat. It helps if you pre-heat your vinyl before applying it to your object. It will become soft and stretchy so that when you apply the vinyl not only will it stick better but it will also become flexible and take the shape of your object. (Like curves, lines, etc) also, when you’ve come to an edge, applying heat there will cause the vinyl to naturally fall over the edge and will stick better. Did your vinyl get brittle? Apply heat! Did your vinyl get wrinkled? Apply heat! Do you feel like you didn’t cut enough and won’t be able to wrap around the edge? Apply heat and stretch! - DONT BE SCARED TO PULL OR LIFT This is very durable material. But also don’t go to the extreme and over stretch. -KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON HOW VINY IS BEING APPLIED If an air bubble appears where you’ve just applied vinyl, it’s easier to pull back and work the bubble out, than to finish your wrapping and seeing an air bubble you missed located dead center on your object, making you basically unwrap your object halfway to get that bubble out Because you know it’ll bother you. You can use an old credit card or gift card (wrap the edge you’ll use with electrical tape to prevent scratching) or squeegee to assure the vinyl sticks to the entire surface. This also prevents air bubbles. - DONT FORGET TO POST-HEAT Once you’ve finished wrapping, apply heat to entire area you’ve wrapped. This is just as important as prepping the area you’re about to cover. Post heating will prevent the vinyl from trying to pull back and go back to its natural form. So with post heat you’ll know your wrap won’t lift or curl back. This is best with the heat gun, a hairdryer might be too weak for this one. I hope this helps! Enjoy!

This film looks and feels great. I had difficulty getting the wrap to stick around edges of trim. I believe it was a combination of inexperience and film thickness.

1st time working with wrap and it's definitely not a professional quality install....but it looks pretty darn good from a few feet away. I had to do a lot of repositioning and when all was done it was stuck down really well. I was able to work out little bubbles with the squeegee. I did crease it in a few small spots and I royally screwed up wrapping over the edge near the windshield....but otherwise it turned out pretty good. 4X5 feet of material was perfect for the hood and I had some little pieces leftover that I put on the door handles. I did use a heat gun on the edge when wrapping it around the backside, that seemed to help a little. Otherwise just scissors, a knife, and a squeegee. I used magnifying glasses for trimming the door handles and a super sharp pointy knife....kinda scary initially but after a bit putting the knife on it wasn't too bad. It cost 30 bucks and was totally worth it, how long it lasts remains to be seen but it made the car look a lot different (you see white model 3's like....everywhere right?) Might have to wrap something on the wife's car now LOL!

I've never installed vinyl wrap before. I've done my share of model airplane decals and Lego stickers, but this is different. It went really well. The stuff is an ideal thickness, in my opinion, and the carbon fiber print looks fantastic. It has a very realistic hologram effect that matches the real thing about as good as I could've hoped. It really dressed up my gaudy bike plastics well. Other reviews mentioned using a little heat for the bendy bits, and that advice is spot on. It only takes a little, though, before it becomes really soft and stretchy, so go slow. I used a heat gun on low and a few waving passes is all it needed to help me get a few ripples worked out. Where it stretches the pattern looks even more convincingly real. If you aren't working on a hot surface the adhesive is repositionable. It's a bit of a challenge to deal with the spring effect of the roll, but for smaller pieces I was able to peel it most of the way off the backing and press it back down, which served to flatten it. It's mostly the backing paper that's coiled, and flattening the roll out actually introduces ripples in the vinyl. I needed to remove those before cutting. Great product, assuming it stays stuck for a reasonable length of time. So far I'm very happy.

Really pleased with the result. Best to use a piece to practice with on edges and non flat surfaces. Overall a fairly simple process on flat surfaces and with a bit of practice the edges can be achieved with a good result.

This roll was enough to wrap my interior trim on a f32. Only thing I would recommend is finding a role that is longer the 1ft as the center console is longer than 1ft, but two cuts of the material line up perfectly so you can work around it. Sticks very well, can be worked easily with a hairdryer, no bubbles no creasing.

I was very impressed with this product. I have lots of experience working with vinyl veneer mostly re veneering flat surfaces like speaker cabinets so I know what's a good product and what's not. This being a thicker vinyl wrap because it's meant for cars was a little different to work with. There is quite a bit of a learning curve to this especially having to do curves on a vehicle without creating wrinkles. That being said this product is very flexible and does not tear which is important for when you need to stretch it for curves. It works extremely well with a great gun or a hair dryer to remove wrinkles and can be pealed back and stuck on many times without losing it's stickiness. This is very important as you many need to redo a section over and over as I did to get it right. Easy to remove bubbles as well even after it's been applied and beautiful professional looking product. I highly recommend it

Don't waste your money. This product isn't sticky at all, very low tack. The instructions say to heat it and apply pressure for the adhesive to stick, I tried all different levels of heat from slight to nearly melting the stuff and none made it stick to plastic when the part is shaped with curves etc. I tried to wrap a car interior vent surround but I wasted nearly half of the role for one small vent and it still wasn't very good. Not going to bother now.

Made my car look new again. Kind of a b***h to install though.
