Dragster Wrap

[db motorsports]

I've looked at quite a few threads but cant search 100's of pages. I need some advice. I have a customer with a rear engine dragster and want to wrap it. I need some recommendations on laminate. They are not trying to nickle and dime me, just want a good quality product that has as much gloss as possible. Also, for my perverse curiosity, is there a DECENT effects laminate (ie, pearl, etc.) that is worth looking into. Thanks everyone for your assistance.

Just use a cast vinyl and laminate. Oracal 3751/290, Arlon 6000 xrp/3210, etc. They are typically aluminum bodies, are hard to wrap at all.

Are not hard that was supposed to say

I have done a few already, this customer is a bit more picky, wants finish as close to wet look clear coat paint. The last car I did was 3751/290. Just looking into other possible laminates or materials to give the finish my customer is looking for

clear coat it . I have done a few TAF and they clear what I do.

Here is a Harley fairing I skin'd then clearcoated with auto clear. Turns out great.

the 290 optically clear material (for backlit signs and micro perf) is a bit glossier (i think) than the 290. you could try that, but more expensive.
