Well here is another Vinyl wrapped Audi A3 we have recently completed at Deep-Shine Detail.  :smiley:

Here is the full report.

(...if anyone has any questions feel free to contact us)  :wink:







Audi A3 Receives a full colour change wrap @ Deep-shine Detail to Pitch Blue Metallic Matt.

The A3 under went the usual full safe wash and contamination process then was moved inside and fully clayed to remove bonded more stubborn contaminates & Dried using a hot air blower before being fully stripped down in preparation for wrapping.

How the A3 looked before



The car was then prepared properly fully removing and striping all trim, bumpers, mirrors, spoiler and lights etc to ensure the best application of the wrap as possible.





The colour :thumb: Pitch Blue Metallic Matt which is an awesome colour and finish.



Let the transformation begin



















Door Handle Recesses post heated to 90 degrees to change the memory of the vinyl to ensure it holds its new shape.





Door handles and bump strips etc that were removed are fully cleaned, old adhesive strips removed, wrapped, new 3m adhesive tape applied and re fitted.











Cut tape is used at every opportunity possible to avoid any cutting onto the cars   paint. As the A3 Roof runs flush the cut tape is essential to create a safe and accurate join.











Bumpers dry fitted to be wrapped







Due to a bad repair on the original tailgate a new one was sourced so this was fully prepared, wrapped and refitted.







Carlo ensuring the relevant areas are post heated to the correct temperature and carefully monitoring with a infra red thermometer



Mirror caps removed, wrapped & refitted.





The Car was then fully re assemble giving us the finished result. :thumb:

























Many Thanks for looking Adi/Carlo @ Deep-Shine Detail

great work as usual  :happy2:

just out of curiosity how does the cut tape work?

The cut tape is awesome. Basically it's a 3mm wide tape with a filament running down one edge.
You run the tape where you want to cut a line or a curve etc and press it on firmly, leaving excess cut tape overhanging at each end. Then you lay your vinyl over the cut tape and again press firmly using cards/gloves etc.
Then using a knife carefully separate the filament on one end of the cut tape.
With a very firm hold of the filament pull confidently through the vinyl in a clean movement all the way to the other end.
Then remove the vinyl off cut and the remains of the cut tape.

Job done.  :smiley:
