anyone done the DIY and/or tried this vinyl? I'm looking to do gloss.

I've used it before, the gloss black. It's not that easy, especially doing it the first time. Getting it on in 1 piece without bubbles, like in the picture instructions, is pretty much impossible with the gloss. Once I got the hang of it though, it went reasonably well, albeit with a few extra seams.

I'd recommend getting 2 rolls to redo any sections that get bubbles/misaligned, especially if you are a perfectionist.

I recommend whole vinyl sheet, since the window trim is curbed.
I started my interior trim and wrapped side mirror and now on to the window.
Cutting was the hardest for window trim but once I got new exact knife was lot easier
I have enough sheet for both side window trim, I can precut for you if you want.
My tip is cut 3" and practice until you feel comfortable with cutting.
Good luck

Prick the bubbles with a pin and they will disappear.

also after a few sunny days, most (maybe not all) bubbles will disappear on their own. Vinyl is somewhat porous and the heat makes it open up more.
