Wrapping the Waterfall Console and door trims
Anyone done it? Any tips? I'm thinking of carbon wrapping the waterfall console and door trims as I fancy something different.

Did them with moose leather before. Rather easy but time consuming.

I tried the console with 3M Di-Noc and I nearly completed it but, trying to get all the air bubbles out was a nightmare.
Use a proper applicator tool and a hair-dryer. Better to apply to the burlwood covers as they're tougher generally and will not allow your vinyl to become dented so easily.

The 3M is good.
I prefer to use Hexis, much better air release IMHO and it moulds into shape really nicely
