Hi mate

I wrapped my etha. Will dig some photos out but looked nice

Cheers mate, what wrap did you use and how did you find it on the curves? also how did you make it look seemless and does it leave any residue?
thanks.

don't wrap! hydro-dip it

You can't hydro dip a luxe can you? It's just anno?

 

[uberjuba]

yep! you can pretty much hydro dip anything!

Is it permanent? I wanna wrap so I can take it off and then anno later when I want a new colour, plus it's cheap

seen a few cockers been hydro dipped. was one on here a while back for sale that had been real tree'd lol

not 100% sure honestly but if you look to get it reannoed later i'm sure that the chemicals used to strip the original anno would be enough to remove the graphics. maybe renie might know?

Wrapping a marker with carbon fiber can be very risky if you don't know what you're doing. It can ruin the marker skin and damage the shape due to heat.

Heat wise i used a hair dryer and didnt affected the anno underneath

It was a simple and cheap job
