This looks Interesting!

There was a pic on the site of a black C5-R (i think) that was done with a roller.

Did that look to you also to be the matte black wrap material that was advertised as being roll/brush-on capable?

yah it was on the same website that the OP wrote about.

Well, I finally got it today. I hate the no tracking number. Instructions are copies of what u see online. the black came in 4 8oz. bottles (2-basecoat & 2-topcoat) ... I may use as a under coating..
Since the VX is less than an SUV, because of the cladding & Glass coverage, I only ordered 2 qts. And 1 qt of topcoat clear.
Now waiting for a hot day...Sorry not in a warm climate right now. Chicagoland...

I saw that the page on the ALSA website has been changed to say that the metallic wrap product "can be brushed, rolled, or sprayed on almost any surface".

Aside from removing a few emblems, hood-mounted windshield washer nozzles, etc, to be able to get some of the product on ALL areas of the paint, application shouldn't be all that difficult.

And except for a few areas on my car that come to mind that would be most easily reached with a brush, I'm thinking a foam roller would probably make for the easiest, most even coating.

Working in Caterpillar, they use foam Whizz rollers for touch up. Good idea.

Any chance a few of those high-dollar Caterpillar Whizz's could make it out of the building in your lunch box and down state into my mailbox?

In one of the vids online they show painting over emblems and then cutting them out with a razor

You can pick up a 4" Whizz foam roller at Wal-Mart for about $7...

Apparently, Caterpillar is getting cheap like most of the rest of big business these days...

They use 2 sizes, I noticed they are using 2" now. But I still grabbed 4". I'm a painter for other than Cat, But I still can get some. How many do you really want? hahaha
