    This reminded me of the first time i wrapped my tank.Since then have been to classes. Tank needs to be attached and pull vinyl with aerodynamics of tank. Falls in category of hard to wrap. I was told if you can wrap a car mirror, you can wrap anything. Gas tank is similar in shape

  • @zacksrandomprojects9698

      He estimated £100 Inc. material but wanted to see the tank before he could tell me whether it would need a seam or not.

    If you do this in Indonesia, then I'm sure your business will close in the not too distant future.
    Sand the damaged paint surface first, to install the film, try not to pull it too much, just heat it evenly and trim it according to the nature and texture of the material, don't force it or fight it.
    If you already have film material that is of fairly good quality, you should be able to maximize your installation. This is very different from those in Indonesia, we only have a few brands of film material that are of poor quality.
