I agree, his posts were helpful at first but in the end, he's like any other businessman and doesn't want to give up all his trade secrets. I get that. However, to say we're "re-inventing the wheel" just doesn't make sense. You're right though, his contributions are good (my apologies) I guess I just didn't care for the last few statements.

Holy Crap!! I leave for the weekend and come back to this clusterf**k??? Man! I thought Pops and I were helping you out. I have read everything Pops has posted here and you can sense some humour and sarcasm in a lot of it. I do feel for him to get trashed like that after all he has put into this thread.
Everybody needs to relax and think before they post... I just have one question to K-series...How old are you? Honestly... I found this thread by searching for vehicle wraps, and I found it quite interesting that there are quite a few people out there wanting to attempt this themselves. I am pretty sure Pops and I have answered every question thrown at us with respect to all of you in this forum. And yes we are giving away "Trade Secrets" HA! LOL! That anyone with a PC and some Grey Matter can find themselves, just like any industry. Hell I could find out how to reset my own broken arm if I wanted to... But some things are better left to the experienced "Doc". Besides I live in Canada and healthcare is free up here! (For those of you without a funnybone, that was meant to be funny and not a shot at US health system!) If someone came into my shop and wasted a couple hours of my time, asking me how to do this that and the other thing... I would boot his ass out the door. Because, I don't make any money standing around talking about $50 worth of vinyl he just bought... I would hope he screws up, so he comes back to me to do the install for him. Which happens about 7 out of 10 times. Not everyone can apply vinyl... It doesn't come easy... Those of us who could wrap a car flawlessly and quickly on their first try have a talent that none of you will ever have. To think anyone can do it, well... you have another thing coming. |

I will give props to the OP on a really really good first time installer. I think he wasted his time installing an inferior vinyl that quite honestly Pops is right when he says it has great potential to ruin the paint job. And again everyone is just jumping on the bandwagon blindly thinking he knows what he is talking about. I would question the quality of the work of his friend who supplied him the vinyl to wrap the car. Who in their right mind who makes decals who suggest that vinyl???? Not someone experienced with that. Seriously, trust Pops with what he is saying. He has WAY more experience than me and I learn from him all the time! He is very respected in our trade and is the real deal! Last edited by wrapster; 05-03-2010 at 02:43 PM.. |

Again, I just didn't like how I read some of the responses, but I will say that it all could have been in how I interpreted them. It's not like we're sitting at the bar shooting the shit where sarcasm and such are easily detected. Steve |

Now I must disappear again because I am swamped with work at the moment and after last winter I need all I can get. I am putting together a DIY forum and hopefully supply connections for all you so be patient I will be back as time permits. ~Pops |

Been checking out this thread for a bit.
I thought you could never wrap a car in 631 but I was wrong. djaemac Great job thinking outside the box and finding a cheaper way to get stuff done. I ordered some 631 in blue and am doing my car. About 45 in to it so far. |
