CF Wrapping: How long have you had it on?

jonerik26 · 12-22-2010, 03:04 PM

I just started wrapping my trim last night, as much as I enjoy the new look, am worried it may damage my trim to where I can't return it to stock.

I've seen the threads of people easily returning to stock with some acetone or any other adhesive remover. These seem to satisfy my question before. But Am just concerned because I ran into threads where people were taking them off, in short periods, to do it again , I always figured it was good for however long you want to keep it on.

So was wondering how long everyone has had their wrap on? And what was the result, if you did, of returning it back to stock.

Anyways thanks in advance

I did a test piece because I had the same concern with my wood trim so I just did the vent on the far driver's side of the car. All you do is peel the wrap off and I used goo-gone to remove the glue from the trim. Good as new, never knew it was there.
