OK, so besides simply bashing the stuff...........anybody got real info on it??

I think it's fairly easy to say it's not a Llumar or SolarGuard or whatever you prefer........but............anybody ever use this stuff???

Any experience shrinking/working it?? Compared to the good stuff??

TIA

Well, I'll be giving feedback as time goes by. I just put some on my beater & it actually didn't feel too bad. I didn't use the 'best' or 'better' stuff either, I simply used the non-metalized, plain-jane 'good' stuff.

It's some leftover I had & that vehicle is still lookin' good, so we'll see.

My initial impressions are that it can crease easily compared to the old-school Llumar I used to have. (so be aware if you ever touch the stuff).

I was pleasantly surprised at how it set. I had noticed that some of the newer films don't like to *grab* right away compared to what my old mind is used to. This stuff leaves itself 'slippable' for a few minutes, then transitions nicely to grabbing. I was pleasantly surprised in this regard. (I used some 3M last year that I recall took a good while to get the fingers out of.........as in "next morning" & still workin' 'em out, kinda' long while).

It seems fine so far. I'm gonna keep an eye on it and I'm also gonna play a little, by installing pieces spread out in weeks. My car sits in the sun at work all day & this would probably go over even better during the summer.........but oh well.......it's a long term test anyway, so maybe next summer will tell the tale.

Now, don't get me wrong.........I know this stuff isn't professional film, but I'm just curious to see what it can do.

Remember................folks laughed at Hyundai 10yrs ago..........Now?..........not so much!!
