SDG
overstretching can distort the pattern
and take away from the look of the film.
Wrapping parts that have curves and
indentions will of course alter the pattern
as it conforms, but be sure the lines of
the carbon fiber remain in a smooth line.
Avoid distortions that aren't fluid with
the surface the carbon fiber is covering.
Decorative
The unique appearance of carbon
fiber brings a rich, dimensional look to
vehicles and interiors. Since it's an easy-
to-use film that can be cut on a computer
controlled cutter or with 3M
Knifeless
tape. There are endless ways to create
decorative designs on any surface.
Carbon fiber can be used alone or lay-
ered with other films to create unique
looks. Choose films that compliment one
another in color and finish and pay close
attention to the lines within the carbon
fiber film itself.
