Default DiNoc v. Neffy Wrap?

Im looking to wrap a few interior pieces but cant decide which stuff to use?
The DiNoc, with adhesive on it, or go for the neffy and use a 3m adhesive?
Whats your guys opinions on them as far as which is easier to install and lasts longer
Thanks!

I love that dinoc because it's ease of use. It also is supposed to last years, so I wouldnt worry about it lasting. And if you **** up on the install, just heat it up, remove it, and try it again.

did you have any dings or anything like that in the roof?

I am wondering if I use it on the outside where I have a scratch or very small dent if it will be visible.

well my roof had a few dents so i used the dinoc hoping it'll cover it and it did. This cf overlay will conceal a dent or scratch completely. the guy who helped me put it on used a heatgun and it bonded nicely.

my roof had some bad, visible scratches in the clear coat, and a light dent and the dinoc covered it all up seamlessly

Can you actually feel the carbon fiber texture or is it just the look of it?
How much would this di-noc be to do the whole center console?

well it's pretty much a vinyl sticker so you won't feel the fibers underneath nor the glossy clearcoat finish of the real stuff

I thought you could feel the texture on Dinoc? I have a dinoc cover on my iPhone 4 and i can def feel the weave texture...but not sure what material it is.

I assumed Dinoc since it came with adhesive already on it.

3m makes different types of vinyl stickers, the di noc stuff doesn't just come in c/f it comes in different colors (google it) they use it for wood finishing inside homes, etc...

it could be a different type of c/f vinyl....

^ This is what i have right here. My phone was used as a fittment tester for this by a local vinyl shop here in Houston for this same company.

Look in the second to last pic, you can see how I can feel the texture. They say they use 3M dinoc.

You can feel the texture of dinoc. Take a piece and let your fingernails lightly scratch it an you can feel the slight texture

I got a sample of the new sheet XPEL is selling - I am going to wait until I get some of the di noc to see which one I am going to use for the project - so far the XPEL stuff is pretty awesome.
