has anyone done this professionally? im thinking of doing it instead of painting my roof..but wondering how durable this has been for any of you? what would seem better to do considering the weather we get here in Toronto, Canada (snow, salt)? Are they both easy to clean? and what , if any, warranty is applicable for this (as in length)?
thanks

I did my whole car a month ago.





I did it myself and it took $200 and six hours.

is that wrapped or dipped? and how hard is it to do?

If you wrap it you can change your mind. Not sure about plasti dip.

Here's a decent video of removal. It peels up no issues; just make sure you put it on thick enough or it ends up not peeling in a nice sheet. Bonus vs. Vinyl: no glue residue to worry about.

I would vote Plastidip all the way, I have done some detailing as well as 1 full Scion xB and it's some great stuff. Easier to put on than Vinyl, sprays on like paint but with no prep and less runs. You can sort of dial in how much texture you want. Spray further out and light with more coats for more texture; heavier (wet looking) and closer with a few heavy coats for a smoother matte. Only surface prep you need is a car wash followed by a good hand wipe down, with special attention payed to things like door seals and such to make sure there's no grime in grooves and such.
