The UK’s First White Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale!
Something a little different, although I rarely post these days, I thought you guys might find this interesting 
I was asked down to Paintshield’s lush new premises in Peterborough, to help with the finishing off of their latest development car.
Typically Paintshield deal with the fitting of very high quality paint protection films. Most cars have the front end covered, bonnet, wings, front bumper, front of the wing mirrors, great for stopping stone chips and the film can even be detailed and waxed. They’ve even covered whole cars before including their own Orange Porsche Boxster
So I was expecting another new clear film, how wrong was I!! I’ll let the pictures do the talking. Take one mint Ferrari 360 Stadale in Red and wrap it in Paint!
Yes you read correctly paint! A brand new product, a vinyl film that is painted at the factory, its mad! It even smells like paint and has a clear coat that can be detailed, I’ve had a sample of this film on my van for a couple of weeks now, the idea was to find out what was possible before finishing the Ferrari. I’ve buffed it with a pc and rotary up to a cutting pad! I’ve even wet sanded a section then re-polished it to a great finish. It is amazing stuff!
Paintshield: Paint Protection For Your Car
The film: FLX-Paint Home Page
Enjoy the pictures,
Kind regards, Roy.
Car had to be part dismantled to allow the film to be fitted around the edges.
Gary and Joe from Paintshield at work.
Door openings wrapped as well!
Stradle style carbon Stripe added.
Some polished shots, check out the flake
Myself in action
A few finished shots with the car back together.

Looks excellent. Could well become more popular instead of resprays ??
Was reading similar on Detailing World today a guy that had something like this (might not be exact same stuff?) done to his M3, taking it from black to white (except the roof - which made it look brilliant). Cost wasn't as freightening as would expect either.
What happens when you remove it, how is the paint work affected ?

Why are the pictures not uploading fully? Might be easier to view my thread here.
