 3M Gloss Deep Space Wrap FAQ

Have a Question? We’ve Got the Answer!

What makes Gloss Flip Deep Space different from a standard car wrap?

Gloss Flip Deep Space is a multi-layered, color-shifting film. Unlike a standard single-color wrap, it creates a dynamic visual effect, changing from a deep cosmic blue to a fiery bronze and a mysterious violet depending on the viewing angle and how light hits the surface. This is achieved through a specialized manufacturing process that layers different materials to create the color-shifting illusion. As a result, these films are slightly thicker and require special attention to installation direction to ensure a consistent color flip across the entire vehicle.

Is installing a color-shifting wrap like Deep Space difficult?

Installing a color-shifting wrap is more challenging than a standard gloss or matte film and is best suited for experienced installers. Because the color effect is directional, every panel must be oriented in the same direction to ensure the color shifts uniformly. If panels are misaligned, the color transition will appear inconsistent and unnatural. Additionally, because the film is multi-layered, it is less forgiving of overstretching and wrinkles, which can cause the layers to separate and disrupt the color-shifting effect. It is crucial to use proper installation techniques and keep the film under a 10% stretch.

How long will a Gloss Flip Deep Space wrap last?

With proper care and maintenance, a 3M™ 2080 Series Gloss Flip Deep Space wrap can last up to eight years on vertical surfaces. However, the lifespan of any vinyl wrap is affected by factors such as climate, sun exposure, and how well it is maintained. Horizontal surfaces like the hood and roof receive more direct UV exposure and may have a shorter lifespan. To maximize the life of your wrap, it is recommended to park in shaded areas or use a car cover whenever possible.

How should I wash a vehicle wrapped in Gloss Flip Deep Space?

The best way to wash a wrapped vehicle is by hand, using the two-bucket method. This involves using one bucket with a pH-neutral car wash soap and water, and a second bucket with plain water for rinsing your wash mitt. This prevents dirt and grit from being reapplied to the wrap, which can cause scratches. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaning tools. For best results, wash your vehicle every two weeks or as needed to prevent dirt and contaminants from bonding to the film.

Can I take my wrapped car through an automatic car wash?

It is strongly recommended to avoid automatic car washes, especially those with brushes. The abrasive action of the brushes can cause fine scratches and swirls in the gloss finish and can even lift the edges of the wrap. While touchless automatic car washes are a safer alternative, they often use harsh chemicals and high-pressure water jets that can also damage the film over time. Hand washing is always the safest and most effective method for cleaning a wrapped vehicle.

Can I wax or apply a ceramic coating to my Gloss Flip Deep Space wrap?

You should not use traditional carnauba waxes on your Gloss Flip Deep Space wrap. Many waxes contain petroleum distillates that can damage the vinyl and degrade the adhesive over time. However, you can use a synthetic spray wax or a ceramic coating specifically designed for vinyl wraps. These products will add a layer of protection against UV rays and contaminants, and will enhance the gloss finish without damaging the film. Always test any new product on a small, inconspicuous area first.
