Fall is here and time to get some items wrapped!
The ideal application temperature is between 18 and 25°C / 64 and 77°F (preferably between 20° and 25°C / 68 and 77°F). The temperature goes equally for the material, the item wrapped and the ambient air temperature. It is also important that all wrapped areas that involved moderate or above stretching will need to be heated with a heat gun to between 80°-90°C /176 to 194°F and then left in an environment no higher than 26°C / 78°F for a period of 24 hours for the material to rest and the adhesive set. This means right now is a great time to get some wrapping done!

What are you going to wrap?

 

Had a question posted on another forum we support from a member asking about the comparison to 3M Di-Noc and 3M 1080 Series. Thought we should share our reply here too.
When we started selling this Hexis Wrap in 2010 we did so after exhaustive research and have continually kept up with the new contenders – including 3M’s recently launched 1080 series of wrap materials. 3M has always been behind in the automotive wrap field and the 1080 series is their attempt to gain some ground. It has gained ground but is far from a market leader.
Di-Noc is an interior architectural finish. It was never meant as a vehicle wrap, and was never really meant to be removed. Lots of people did use it for a lot of unintended applications as there were not many choices ~10 years ago.
A table from 2010 we made up to show the differences. Hexis is now available in 60” wide rolls vs the 54” wide rolls in 2010.

How does 3M want Di-Noc removed? From their own

3M’s 1080 series is a good wrap material, but the textured carbon varieties are thinner than Hexis and in our trials were easier to tear during application as a result.
We felt Hexis was the best global carbon wrap when we added it in 2010 and still feel it is the best option for those looking for a dry carbon wrap. It was designed from the start for full vehicle wrapping and its performance is proven long term. User friendly application is a bonus.
Hope that helps.

 

Hope everybody had a great 4th of July weekend! All weekend orders are shipping today!

A number of wrap questions have cone in recently.

When trying to figure out how much wrap you need you need to start by measuring what you want to cover. for something small like electronics or trim adding about an inch on all sides is helpful for larger panels - hood roof etc adding a few inches on each side is a good starting point

Do you need a heat gun or will a hairdryer work? For anything other than something mainly flat, yes you need a heat gun as a hair dryer will not get hot enough for the final step in the application process.

Do you still have samples? Yes they are currently on the site here just for forum members.



Let us know if you have any additional questions.
