Nifty Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 I would suggest looking at that picture that this is quite inferior to Armourfend. It looks like it is glorified clingfilm, Armourfend is much heavier duty stuff and needs to be to stop flying stones. Personally I'd shy away from that stuff....but then I'm also shying away from DIY and going to have it done professionally whilst the chassis has no suspension components attached.

Ben Long Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 The film I talk about above is supplied by 3M. It certainly doesn't look as thin as the stuff that Demon Tweeks sell. As mentioned by somebody above, I believe the film I can get is the same film that AF use. Edited by - Ben Long on 2 Feb 2004 13:56:29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Woods Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 This is the stuff that Halfords sell, which I have tried. Its called Foliatec and isn't anywhere near as good as Armourfend - its thicker, less flexible and less transparent. Armourfend is not hard to spot but you can miss it if you dont know what you are looking for, especially if the car is clean, however this stuff is a lot easier to spot even if you arent looking for it. Having said that its good value and its tough - I've had some on some 'high wear' points on my car around the door openings and it had stood up to 11,000 miles in one year without problems. Dont let me put you off, just dont expect it to be as good as Armourfend Nick Red and Black 1.6K supersport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Long Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 Nick, Are you talking about the 3M film or the film sold by Demon Tweeks 🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Woods Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 I'm talking about the Foliatec film as sold by DT and Halfords, sorry if it wasnt clear from my posting. Nick Red and Black 1.6K supersport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
