Some advice required here please folks, I'm needing some glossy carbon wrap so should I be looking for 3D or 4D? Any help appreciated.

Tony if you can wait until tomorrow my mate does that sort of thing in glasgow can phone him tomorrow and ask for you
I bought some 3M di-noc and it's pretty easy to apply, if fiddly, I learnt afterwards there is a 3M primer which aids bonding. Seems expensive but I think it would really have helped on the 2 bits I've done. A spare pair of hands would be useful too. Heat gun required although a basic hair dryer worked for me.
Thanks Steve, I'm in no hurry mate car is at home and I'm in Florida till mid May.

Cheers for that Gaz, I have a heat gun. Would that product be ok for outside application do you know? Just some daft ideas on a theme I've seen over here. What you did on your dash looks very nice. I don't mind the brushed alloy interior but the "chequered" style I don't like at all. I assume the primer as well as aiding bonding will also allow some "slippage" when applying the wrap?

The one i used was 4d it gives texture i think flatly applied its easy the more shape you need to get the more work it takes but with heat its very forgiving stuff...
