We do them regularly. The best advice I can give is to buy very good quality wrap with air chanels. It will cost you more but is worth every penny!

Without the air chanels you will have lots of bubbles and possibly end up doing it twice!

I watched mine get wrapped, not an easy job if you want it to be faultess, a lot of time and care is needed to get it correct and bubble free, I wouldnt attempt it myself!
I know someone in Stoke if you want their details
