This project features a holographic carbon fiber vinyl wrap installed on a Honda emblem.
Wrapping With a Wrap Box
The demonstration shows the process of wrapping small parts using a specialized wrap box and a heat gun. The vinyl is warmed with the heat gun until pliable, allowing it to conform tightly over the recessed edges and curves of the Honda badge. Using a wrap box helps maintain consistent tension on the film during application, which minimizes wrinkles and reduces handling marks on the adhesive.
Once the material is formed over the emblem, the excess film is trimmed away. The video ends by displaying the finished product, showing smooth coverage across the entire badge surface.
Aura Vinyl Performance
Aura Vinyl vinyl wrap is manufactured as a cast polymer hybrid film with German-made adhesive, designed for smooth repositioning and fewer glue lines. It also features a PET-backed finish for a flatter look with reduced orange peel. When maintained properly by hand washing every two weeks with vinyl-safe cleaners, the vinyl wrap has an expected lifespan of 3 to 5 years.
