White vinyl car wrap

    I am looking for this on the cheap cheap!

    Im doing a banger rally in july, and want to wrap it white. Will be a bit of a DIY job If it all comes off in a week, so be it. Im not that concerned. Now I know the 3M is the best for wrapping cars, but what is the cheapest?

    Looking for a couple of rolls that we can wrap a car ourselves. Any ideas?

    You'd want maybe 25 metres to wrap a saloon, allowing for mistakes. It could be done with about 20 metres but you'll probably find yourself short if you make a mistake. So 25 x £6.79 = £169.75 = ~€210.

    If you're doing it to something already worthless (like most of the banger rallies I've seen), it'd definitely be cheaper to paint it white. Hammerite put on with a roller usually gives a decent enough result, or you could try rattle cans. Either way, about €50 in materials would see it covered. Use the hammered finish Hammerite for extra banger novelty.

    I have been now thinking the paint option. Any particular kind of paint that you can apply straight to a car that it wont come off and not take forever to dry?
