Ghost/Reflective black on black, white at night

Recommended Posts

Well the pics pretty much explain what I did. It's black reflective 3M vinyl on a black jeep. When light shines on it at night... WOW. I don't know who loves it more, me or the customer.

No, take that and turn it into something great. These photos are fking awesome and reflective is fking awesome. In fact, i was working with some black Oracal 5700 just now for a advert im making with my own vehicle. But its night so ill wait till day so i can measure my car better. Ive only got a few yards, ive ordered several colors of the 5700 a few yards at a time. But now baby, ill be buying in 10 yard rolls, well worth the 99$.

This post has me motivated and inspired. Tomorrow ill post what im working on :)

Hint, if you have never ordered samples direct from 3M it's worth checking into.

The 3M vinyl I used on this Jeep I actually got free!! 3 rolls 48" x 5y or 10y?? I don't remember.

I estimate it worth about $1,100. I had to cut it in half so it would fit my 24" cutter but I'm not complaining.

If you don't have a licensed or registered business they may not send you samples like this, but good luck!

I'll take cash tips for the tip ;D
