Hood wrap pointers?

Some folks dont have garages or enclosed environment

Lets just agree that it can be done with success either with soapy water or dry...

I would say for those with a lot of experience maybe dry is they way to go.

For those who are first timers, soapy water allows one to reposition the warp and get it on the truck correctly.

Just my little experience with the stuff.

I've used soap and water a couple times on smaller vinyl work

Nick did his wrap himself, with soapy water I might add, without a garage and it turned out awesome

Check out his wrap : http://www.fordraptorforum.com/f65/nickpic83s-svt-raptor-11352/index8.html

Thanks Fred

Yes soapy water user here. If u are experienced dry is the way to go. That's why I did it soapy. The hood piece is huge and a pain in the arse to install.

Nick did you install it yourself or have someone help?

Me and a friend with a lot more patience than me luckily. I would say for a rookie this is absolutely a 2 person job and patience will be the most important tool

Forgot to mention. Clay bar the hood right after u clean then be sure to strip it with dawn dish soap and water. That will remove any left over grime and old wax.

Yeah I think I am going to tackle this myself. I'll just have to do it early in the morning when its not as hot or when we have a cool day in the SUMMER! LOL
