A member on my local bike forum asked about a vehicle wrap to maybe do his tank. The website shows some examples of what they can do. It has a coffee machine wrapped and it looks like they could do a tank without any problem and maybe a helmet. Don't know about it's longevity though. It does say they can 'choose a vinyl that is right for the application'. Certainly looks interesting.

Anyone tried anything like this?

Had some business vans done in it years back - cost effective advertising/branding that lasts well.

I saw a Maserati that had been totally wrapped a couple years back. nice job.

In the past I have wrapped a racebike, and several different parts like huggers etc.
A few years back I helped a friend wrap his entire bike because he couldnt afford the fix the paintwork. Looked really, good, stayed on there for a good few years, despite being left outside 100% of the time.

We did it all ourselves though, Id expect an even higher standard if paying a company to do it.

Yup thats the one. The tank was the hardest bit to wrap, but just took a bit of time.

Buy the vinyl, and use a hairdryer and a sharp knife, youll be fine.

There are also Youtube videos that provide tips and tricks about wrapping the tank.
