 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.

Great color and plotter cuts well

Great color and plotter cuts well. Use it to remake my Tacomas decals

First Time DIY Wrapper

First time vinyl wrapping. Wrapped interior trim of my BMW 328i E92. Had quite a few "do overs" of a few pieces. Corners were most difficult for me to master and make trim look good. In the end, I recommend giving it a try. The 3M 2080 is easy to work with once you get the hang of how much heat to use and streatching the material can tolerate before tearing. Pro Tip - buy extra.... :)

Thanks so much for sharing your experience, Rob!

It’s awesome to hear you took on your first DIY wrap and stuck with it—even through the learning curve. You’re absolutely right: once you get a feel for the right amount of heat and stretch, 3M™ 2080 really starts to shine. And that pro tip is spot on—having extra material on hand makes all the difference, especially for those tricky corners.

Your BMW interior sounds like a great project to start with, and we’re glad to hear it turned out well in the end. Appreciate you recommending others give it a try!

I love the material

I recently wrapped my car but not happy with how it turned out. So I ordered a similar wrap through Rvinyl and started to re-wrap my car. I've only done one section of the car. But I love the material that I ordered. It's very easy to handle. It applies with no issues. I can't wait to finish the rest of the car and plan to order more wrap material so I can wrap my truck next. Keep up the good work.

Mighty tasty!

I love this color, it’s so striking!

I wrapped different console pieces and button covers. I also wrapped my door’s window control panels and the trim around the stereo.

What I really like about this color is how it’s so bright and brilliant in the light, and in dim lighting it’s very dark, almost black.

I recently ordered more and trimmed the edges of my front splitter and the rear diffuser fins, on a black car, it looks really nice!

It’s pretty good

Shipping was pretty quick, no complaints there. A far as the actual vinyl my only complaint is that it shrinks a little more than I expected in hot weather. Installation is great, it stretches good under a heat gun and doesn’t tear as easily as other vinyls. You can also reposition it a lot of times before it loses its adhesion which is really nice.

Sophistication in Satin

Wrapping my client's 2019 Ferrari 812 Superfast in 3M satin black vinyl was a game-changer. The material's high quality and ease of application made the process a joy. The sleek satin finish transformed the car's aesthetic, adding a touch of sophistication. No bubbles or imperfections were visible, showcasing the precision of the wrap. It endures daily wear impressively, and the bold black hue turns heads wherever I go. Overall, a stellar investment for elevating the look of this luxury vehicle.

Satin Dark Grey

First time wrapper, necessary because I couldn’t find an installer willing to wrap my motorcycle for less than $900. Installation was definitely a challenge, but the product is very good. Any small mistakes in the installation were my fault as an inexperienced installer, as the material was very forgiving. Couldn’t be happier with the overall results! Ended up buying a bit more in satin white aluminum to add cutouts.

1988 Pontiac Fiero Formula

This is the first wrap I've ever done and I'll say it's probably the only way I'll ever refinish a vehicle on my own again. It came out BEAUTIFUL and I don't have ideal conditions to work in. No garage so out in the yard is my shop. It is EASY to install once you get the hang of how it behaves on different surfaces and contours and once you get a feel for its stretch limits and all. I got better at it as I worked my way around the car. This is another advantage. You can stop when you have to and start again when you can. Unlike with painting. My only trouble besides my learning curve is how to wrap some of the deep recesses on the Fiero like the turn signals on the front and rear bumpers. I may try to color match the film with paint for those small areas. Of course the better the surface prep the better the finish. Mine was mostly loose and powdery original clear coat on the hood, roof and deck lid/wing and the tops of the fenders. You can see where I did a better or worse job at prep in those areas. I would have been happy if it came out a fifty footer but I LOVE it and it is a real attention getter.
