Wrapping T-Tops
I'm posting this here as well as the Auto Detailing and Appearance for more traction
Wrapping T-Tops - Third Generation F-Body Message Boards
I'm reconditioning a set of polycarbonate T-Tops and I'm looking at vinyl warps, I've already gone the route of sanding and polishing the Acrylic/Plexiglas and still have a ton of scratches, maybe not a ton but enough that it's gonna bug the **** out of me and to be honest not wanting to continue the process of sanding and polishing, all that work to get them perfect and expecting them to get scratched up just from being used. With that said I'm looking into possibly vinyl wrapping them with a translucent or clear wrap.3m does offer Scotchprint vinyl which there was a member BADNBLK that vinyl wrapped his T-Tops but that wrap is not translucent and I like the idea of the T-Top allowing light to shine through. A member of a FB page mentioned FlexiShield Paint Protection Films would this be a viable option? I do have an email out to www.flexishieldusa.com that I'm waiting on a reply.

Re: Wrapping T-Tops
Only thing I would worry about would be wear and tear from taking them off and putting them back on, as all the edges are exposed. But that all comes down to how often you actually take them out.
