orange wrap
hey guys, I love the Sebring orange but hate the amplify orange. I am going to try wrapping my incoming hypersonic grey. Anyone know of a wrap that is similar to the Sebring orange? or have any suggestions of a nice orange, i want something with metallic flake look or a satin, something that will show the angles on the car. Thanks!

Can't help you with a recommendation for a wrap, but good luck with your mod to the car. Hope it turns out great and you will post up some pics when you are done.

isulliva,
Send a PM to the user @StayinStock . He has a really cool wrap and I think he does wraps. He could probably provide some insight on cost of the wrap material, and/or labor if you decided to pay someone to do it.
Best of luck,
Jason

Yes definitely needs some flake and more color saturation in the sun.

We're actually getting ready to do a wide body converted C6 base in Teck Wrap Paprika Orange... seems pretty close to factory Inferno Orange with maybe a bit more pop... Though as a beginner I dunno that Id recommend starting with something like teck wrap. Calendared films arent very beginner friendly. Something cast from 3m or Avery would be the move... maybe 3m liquid copper?
Yeah I just saw that color last night! I ordered a free samples. The 3m fiery orange, vivid orange high gloss, KPMF K75400 Matte Iced Orange Titanium, Orange Matte Metallic Satin Pearl from some ezwrap place on Amazon.
I saw a couple I like from teckwrap. And it seems like they have some features the 3m didn't mention. Like plastic backing which according to CKwraps videos gives a better finish and less orange peel. But I couldn't order samples.
If you have any photos of oranges you have done I would love to see! I like a hair on the redder side and to have different tones depending on light angle. The cars have to many lines to hide, need that refraction 😍.

KPMF is really low tac which can be a blessing and a curse. I like it though, good film. Teck Wrap is def harder to work with, most of the polymeric films are (viynl frog, tinybot, ect). I'll post some pics of this c6 when we get started. The colors wild but I'm dreading the front clip.

Awesome thank you! What are your wrap rates, Incase I get fed up ?😂 if I get it partially done, say i can't get the bumpers right, is that something I could pay y'all to finish?
