Ahhh...two comments to share since last:
1. Talking with a dog guy
(meet the most interesting people at dog parks...maybe we need a dog topic here?)
...he said it not paint or rhinoliner, its a wrap...

Which revives my interest in Sweeneys thread awhile ago on paint on aluminum vs wraps...
Thread 'Wrapping'
Wrapping

So, I'm looking for rabbit holes:

@Cary Winch - what is the cognoscemti say about wraps on the aluminum used in CI's?

Is it comparable to CyberTrucks (iirc they are stainless steel...?)
And if not, has anyone tried a wrap, and what surface prep is needed?

I'm weird, I know, but here is my idea...CI as rolling hunting blind...plus cut the heat soak in desert with an FJ like roof...

@Sweeney thos would be kewl on the Cherokee, dude! Or as a way to advertise your biz on the Transit tow vehicle/workshop?

(Looks like Grok needs more data...CI images?

Wrapping is what I was leaning towards, but have found that the local 'wrap' company won't do just a single color wrap -- they want logos. THey insist that "it is not a protective coating"

As for fading, yeah, I'm sure that is an issue --- but the cost to wrap a transit van isn't that bad if you say it fast. $4000 +/-, so if it lasts 18-24 months, $200 a month is cheaper than other forms of advertising. For my use, either dipping or wrapping the teardrop --- it sits in a garage when its is not in use, so I am thinking I'll get more like 4-6 years out of whatever I put on it. since UV will not be a factor.

MAYBE next summer. I've got to find time, money, and ambition at the same time.
