what are you wrapping? I just did my rear panel myself, and it looks good.

Just cut to rough size, water and olive oil sprayed finely onto the panel, buy a proper felt block for shaping/smoothing and use that to remove air/water, heat to shape round any complex shapes, trim to shape, and then reheat to fix.

Ill give it a try. What wrap did you use as I just read a set off application details for Hexis' product and it doesnt mention water or oil

I got mine from the local branch of MDP - I just bought the slightly cheaper stuff as there were no curves, but even the good stuff is relitivly cheap.

If you look on youtube there are lots of guides - most mention water, some with washing up liquid, some with oil.

Doing it dry is very tricky on complex shapes.

cheers, will it withstand the exhaust heat on a side panel of a seven?
