    dipping/wrapping

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Hi all, have anyone done dipping/wrapping on your S4 for different color tone? Any shops in Toronto with reasonable price that you can suggest? Any pictures that you can share with me on your finished product?

    Thanks all!

    Ever used search button? Been discussed many times-- its all personal preference--I've used dip previously on emblems trim but never whole car. Dip has come a long way though. Anyways heres a start...

    Speaking with @IanCH about dipping your whole car, he mentioned a newer product called HALO that is supposedly much better and durable.

    Speaking from my experiance if you drive your car in the winter and deal with any amount of road grime being thrown at it dont dip anything that will be in the line of fire. It will chip and wear off very fast. Just vinyl wrap the whole car, if you want extra protection have them install the clear film over top of the vinyl.

    Wrap, don't dip. Dipping just doesn't hold up to our weather up here. Head to RestyleIt and speak to Andrei, his shop did all the alu-accents on my S4, they're warrantied too.

    Hahaha, someone has a good sense of humor. My company uses this to preserve stainless steel for up to 18 months in storage before delivery.
