White Roof Wrap (1 Viewer)

[ttrmike]

I had the roof wrapped in 3M 1080 Gloss White by a local shop.

I think it turned out well, or at least as good as it can for lines that end in free space on the body.

Looks like the protective film on new cars off the truck. Kidding. Truck must be cooler in the sun.

looks like you had a white truck and run out of black wrap.

I think it looks slick. Without the rails. Like a boss ride. Did you consider not doing the part outside the rails so that would have natural lines and boundaries?

Is it's name Pepe or Flower?

Looks kinda like an LEO from my rear view mirror.

It does look like the transport film. I can dig it.

hey mate! I saw you going east bound on 90 Saturday. Was about to post on the Seattle thread to see if anyone knew this truck.

If you live in an area that is prone to extreme heat and sun, look into "bus-kote"
It is a polymer paint with ceramic beads that reduce conducted heat.
I reduced the internal temp of my truck almost 15 degrees and the rear AC cools much faster, since the ducts that run along the roof don't get as hot.

It has held up great for over a year.

How much does that cost?

 

[TexAZ]

50$ a gallon on amazon. Took less than half gallon for 2 coats on my roof.

Did you spray or brush on the bus kote? Did it turn out gloss, or matte?

I rolled it. It came out like rhino lining. Kinda orange peel texture.
Stuff likes to be applied in cool temps. I was starting at 6 am in arizona. It got warm outside and I rushed to get it on. Probably could have sanded between coats for a smoother texture.
