steelepulse Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 I've got some rims that I'd like to get wrapped instead of painted, so I was wondering if there are any shops in Phuket that do this? For anyone that doesn't know, this is a tape/film made by 3M that you apply to a surface/paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunta71 Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 I saw one of the "auto parts/ accessories" places in front of Big C a while back wrapping someones hood in black. They will help one way or another I'm sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LivinLOS Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 I have seen vinyl.. Never seen the newer 'wraps'.. There is on the island the dip system to add faux carbon etc.. But you cant dip a car chassis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katabeachbum Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 rims are usually to hot to be wrapped, wrap bubbles or peals off paint is the way to go, if you drive hard, heat resistent paint is needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterocket Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 Yes.. TNS AD Co. Ltd. Ive spoken with them before and they seemed very professional. Would post contact details but I dont believe it is permitted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillR Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 Or check Manit Center Max, im sure they point you in the right direction at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelepulse Posted December 8, 2010 Author Share Posted December 8, 2010 Thanks everyone. >>if you drive hard, heat resistent paint is needed Yes I do drive hard, but was hoping to keep the Volks original underneath the new wraps without having to go the paint route.

steelepulse Posted December 14, 2010 Author Share Posted December 14, 2010 Another option I'm considering is powder coating. Any recommendations for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LivinLOS Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Another option I'm considering is powder coating. Any recommendations for this? Richco Chiang Mai.. Best in the country.. Can be done on Phuket but isnt as good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
