Title: Something about car wrapping?
Post by: Johnny English on 08 June 2014, 16:17:31

Hi all,
I'm just fed up with repainting my old miggy on certain places where those f*ckin rust stains are appearing averagely in every second year... >:( Rear arches, bottom of doors... >:( Do you know something about car wrapping, I mean is it effective against rust? Does it close the rustless surface perfectly from the active atmospheric oxygen? When I asked an "expert" he just had stattering for a while and tried to come with boring marketing speech like "5yrs warranty" and "we are leaders on the Hungarian market" but answered nothing when asked him about that whether the surface can getting rusted under the cover layer... Any advice or opinion welcomed.

thx mates,  :y

Rust is like cancer Laz, if it hasn't been completely cut out or killed with treatments it will come back. ::)  No matter what you put over it.  ;)  :)

Laszlo,
 the arches and door bottoms normally rust from the inside towards the paint, so wrapping won't help much if at all.

Replace doors for known good ones , easier than repair  :)
