G-Klass 500 Matte Wrap

[StickySigns]

This was the project I did for a Harley Dealer around here I thought I'd Share.

It was Desinio Blue but they wanted something that looked thougher and would have the logo's come out better.

This is about the 6th full car wrap I've done.
I used Avery 900 Supercast on this one, did 80% by myself.

The result is amazing with the glossy vinyls on top.

Sweet. I am gonna start playing with the matte designs as well. Nice work.

Nice! I've been thinking of doing my truck in a matte black with a semi gloss vinyl for accent peices. Really nice work you did.

 

[AUTO-FX]

That looks sweet! What all did you remove/disassemble?

 

[signswi]

Ugly car but great wrap and graphics!

We removed door handles, antenna, wipers, bumper corners, front grille, headlight covers and the fenders.
thx for the feedback


I have the mat/glossy black on black on my company car:

which everybody seems to like a lot


Here's another mat Mercedes ML we did (I don't know why we get so many demands on mat look? )

@Jesse, calling a G-klass ugly
It's an icon (hasn't changed for something like 30years or so )
and it drives like a dream...

Customer interested in getting top of his fj cruiser wrapped with matte black. He wants to cover the white. Good thing is...he doesn't have a roof rack I was looking at the oracal970 ra matte black. Anyone one of us work with this particular vinyl before? Any other recommendations for matte black? Vinyl needs to be cast 60" wide , long term and preferably with air-release.

Only solid color "wrapping" film I've tried so far is the Oracal 970RA. Still need to add logos and the peice on top of the front bumper but it was pretty easy to work with. The worst was the most inner part of the side steps on the bed. Those came back up some and will need patches - I think I hit the limit on how far material can get stretched on those spots but for 99% of other full wrapped vehicles we have done I dont think that would be an issue. I think it went on just as easy as a printed and laminated wrap with 3M 180C.

I haven't used the Oracle Matte, so I cannot judge

The Magnum looks very nice!
Altough it looks like your matte is more satin than avery's or Arlon's.
You still see the reflections in it (might be the picture)

There is a Air Release MAtte black from Hexis that is very easy to work with, but also more glossy.
The very matte from Hexis is very scratch sensitive...

I had the great idea to do mine with the Arlon Cast Matte Black (which is a pain to work with, compared to the Avery) both don't have air release, but are VERY Matte, and VERY scratch resistant...( I drove my car several times trough a car wash with no damage at all)

Problem is when my customers come in they see my car and want the same thing...

I would just suggest to work with a wet squeegee (if you don't already have that habit), and don't forget to tell the customer not to "polish" the car
