Panel Damage
Dave Bailey - 27/3/11 at 09:47 PM

I am getting near the end of my build and over the years as I have been fitting and moving the panels around in the garage I have some repairs to do... The panels are black so show all of the marks... I may try to G3 some of them but the others will need painting in particular the nose due to me dropping something on it and gracking the gel coat.

So it's either paint it or wrap it? How do they compare price wise?
And any recommendations of which way to go?


thanks

needs to be a high quality special vinyl for wraping the curved surfaces that will mirror any defects in the surface.
thought about the nose cone a few times and don't think i could do it in one bit.

If you have cracks in the gel coat they will show up like a sore thumb if you don't sort them out no matter what you do, grind out the cracks, fill, smooth and then paint or wrap
