Vinyl Wrapping a Defender in Matt Black

#1 Post by ellebarto » Fri Aug 23, 2013 2:54 pm

A fellow laner had mentioned to me that he had seen Vinyl wrapped wings on a few laning Land Rovers. Theory is it should protect your paint form the worst of the brambles, especially if you’re driving something a bit newer.

My Landy is going to be part of a display at a festival event soon so when someone suggested they wrap my Defender 110 I thought I’d give it a go so the old girl was looking her best.

Turned out great and I love the look of it. Jury is out as to whether it will protect it or she’ll shed her skin like a big black snake on the first thorny bush!!

That's an interesting product, how permanent is it? Is the idea to leave it on forever or just a couple of years. Keep us updated on how it holds up over time.
I can see a LR3 owner using this while he off roads for a couple of years and then peel it off just before selling it?

I know a local fellow producing LR3 & LR4 clear vinyl protection wrap kits. PM me if you would like his contact information.
