Re: How hard is it to Wrap a cart
Subscribed because I want to know too. I've tried to contact a few local businesses who do wraps but they have been less than interested.

Re: How hard is it to Wrap a cart
Ebay for your wrap kit. Company called Winstead Enterprises, and link here as an example http://www.ebay.com/itm/4-x-5-Perman...ht_1208wt_1072 is what I used to do mine with. Used two roll equaled to 40 square feet.
Easy to do, maybe a third hand at times, but a heat gun is all you need. Mossy Oak had a template on the net showing sizes you needed. I cut to fit and had PLENTY left over using two rolls. Be sure you cut and keep the patterns going the same way. I used scrap pieces to go around some of the weird angles on the EZGO. Even wrapped the steering column. Be sure cleaned real good and no plastic burrs showing. The cart ya see in some of my pics is the wrap we did. |

Re: How hard is it to Wrap a cart
If you haven't used large sheets of vinyl before and wrapped compound curves, I don't think you'd like the results. Can you do it, of course, definitely a "technique" to it though. I get too frustrated when it comes to all the hard spots because I want it to look perfect. You can use too much heat (melts the vinyl), not enough (wrinkles) etc.

Re: How hard is it to Wrap a cart
It is not hard at all I did mine using this product
http://everythingcarts.com/p-1476-mo...body-wrap.aspx and was very pleased with the outcome. It took about 5 hours and I was able to do it by myself. I ended up with plenty left over for repairs but in 2 years I have not needed to touch it up. The picture below is the result. Dave |

Re: How hard is it to Wrap a cart
Maybe a template, spray job, like on my 95 would suit you better..Checkout my build to see. It was an easy and enjoyable process. The template cost me 69 dollars, I think, and I have used it many times. on the top and pull cart,too.
GOOD LUCK Marc |

Re: How hard is it to Wrap a cart
The best thing to use when doing wraps is a steamer it will let you shrink or stretch it without burning it

Re: How hard is it to Wrap a cart
just wrapped my rxv cart with mossy oak breakup camo. It went well. you need a heat gun to make the project easier. They have a video on the site. The corners are a challenge.....hell the whole project is a challenge but it looks good. You've got to be patient, experienced with wall paper, and probably have a helper.
