you'll want to use products like Prima Hydro (polymer sealant) or Griot's SprayOn Wax (natural wax) on the dinoc.

no residue.

only thing with matte is if you use wax/polymer sealants to prolong the vinyl's durability it turns glossy. :D hahaha


I use Mequire's Ultimate Quick Wax on my matte wrap. Doesn't look shiny. Stay away from carnuba wax
Go to wraptiva.com

Could I get away with just the roof? I know a guy that installs clear bras and I would just have him do it but seems like a lot of work to do the fangs and one would might a lot to do them

3M CF vinyl will look better, be easier to apply and cheaper to buy

3M makes a satin black vinyl. It between matte and gloss. A lot easier to maintain for scratches and clouding due to the elements than gloss

I had mine for around 1 yr now. So far it looks great. The roof wrap also can be protect with 3M clear film which I'm getting done this Spring.

I like the matte black, I don't see how the gloss roof even matters. :ugh:

IMO,carbon fiber look-a-like vinyl,no matter the brand,will make your car look cheap.
If budget is not a factor,save up for a CF roof cover.Also,do matching CF parts
on your Z.I've no interest in doing my roof,but I've done other parts like B-pillar and mirror base covers( from ZCF).Really make the 370 look updated.

So... old thread... anyhow, saw a pearl white Z yesterday in Pasadena FL with what looked like a red roof (either painted or wrapped). The red seemed to match the sport caliper color. Is this anyone's Z on this forum, or has anyone seen this done before? Unfortunately I didn't get to see much of it as it was in the opposing lane, so just a quick glance. Looked interesting.
