yeah Dinoc is far too gray in the direct sunlight.. no bueno. Getting rid of mine.

Are the installation characteristic of this similar to dinoc tho? Stiff sheet characteristic? Needs primer, lifts up on compounds easily when reheated, goes back to orig shape when heated, dries stiff, etc?

DO you sell it? and if so whats the price per sq ft.

verdict. Mar 16, 2011 02:41 PM

Very cool.

Removable at some point down the road? Yes fully reversible No*
Not without significant damage to what it was applied to
Dimensionally stable after thermoforming on complex surfaces? Yes No*
Surface primer (adhesion promoter) necessary
Exterior application life expectancy - vertical application? 3-5 Years depending on climate (will last longer in northern climates) 3-4 years (will last longer in northern climates)
Exterior application to a horizontal surface? (ie Hood, Roof, Trunk overlay) Yes with 40% reduction in life over vertical application if unprotected No, not recommended at all

that Hexis wrap looks awesome. i would definitely pay you to redo my roof Bat

Chebosto Mar 22, 2011 09:13 AM

so with the specs you posted, then a typical horizontal application would last 1.8 - 3.0 years before reapplication?

could you.. clear coat something like this to extend life and still be able to remove it like a vinyl?

Nice! I wish you would make a overlay for the stupid interior door switch covers that get all the scratches, so we don't have to spend 150 for the carbon fiber overlay!
