    I have a fiberglass piece for my dash, how thick is this stuff? How smooth does the surface need to be?

    At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

        Absolutely, it wouldn't be that bad for labor, as a flat surface would be cake. A large 2 car trailer would probably take 8 hours, including pulling the screws out and putting back in.

        How about if there is a seam? Or can you get wider stuff? It would be for my trailer thats at your place, just the black sections.

            Kinda glad i told him about this stuff. he was thinking of just using a straight gloss black vinyl, but once i showed him this on FS he was in love with it lol

            and Props to Jason on doin excellent work, from over 5 feet it doesnt look like a vinyl at all.

              It is a bit thicker than vinyl in original form. After heated up and stretched, it can become EXTREMELY thin...like thinner than paper and still hold original form without distorting the weave.

              I don't believe I can get wider stuff. If it I have to seam it, there is a technique the can seam 2 pieces together with very minimal lines.... Stop into the shop and we will talk pricing.

                    3M does not have a rating for wear...I can only go off of what others in the nation have done, and I have yet to read ANYTHING online that said 'don't install it on XXXX' or 'it failed'....It is designed to be used indoor and outdoors, so I would assume 3M wouldn't put their name on something that is only designed to last a short amount of time, and if they put 'years' behind the life of the product, I wouldn't be scared.

                      This stuff would look bad ass on a 360, PS3 or a laptop.
                      I really like the flat finish as well, it kind of give a stealthy touch to whatever your putting it on. 🙂
