TWI Color Change: Audi RS3 - Hood with Cast Carbon Wrapping Film

Created over 1 year ago

A carbon hood is always a good call on an Audi RS3. Yet, as many of you may know, wrapping a large piece with carbon can be tricky due to the nature of the film as it's prone to tearing, scratches and if you overstretch it the pattern and hue will be distorted. To neutralize these "negatives" and turn them into positives, Justin uses a combination of Zero Stretch, Wrap Matrix and The Palm to get perfect symmetry and full coverage. What is unique to pay attention to is how he Zero Stretches the sides and then uses the Wrap Matrix and the Shimmy to relax the film. Also note what he suggests for aftercare as it really helps with carbon.
