Evening All
Well productive day stripping the bike down ready for the vinyl wrap to arrive this week and a good chance to see how it all goes together. Has anyone on here wrapped their bike yet?
I’ll post pictures of the progress

Hi Kevin
The tank will be last but it doesn’t look that bad(famous last words). I’m going to try and get pictures at every stage of it, I’ve done it with all my builds.

I believe @canecorso has done a bunch of research on wraps, painting and a little into bodywork

Session #2
Well not to bad today but fortunately I had the help of LHG, she had the patience and just told me what to do. If anyone was to try this I’d say you need patience, heat gun, very sharp knife, patience, alcohol wipes and patience.
we had a few issues but I’m chuffed for a first attempt, didn’t realise the bike had so many curves. I’ll post more when we do the tank and mudguard, I’ve got some gloss carbon coming for some accent pieces.
Wish me luck
