    Default Is the skills in Xpel car wrapping (clear bra) the same as car wrapping in color?

    http://www.xpel.com/clearbra_install...lberta/Calgary

    above is a list of Xpel car dealership

    Is the skill used the same as wrapping the car in color, such as this:

    if so, which are the better dealership from the above list that can do a color wrapping?

    Further, by chance, is there any reflective color that may be consider as illegal because it's reflective?

    Got mine done at tint tech. Could not be happier with the price, and quality of work. I'm sure anyone you go to would be able to answer your questions regarding color reflection. Also, avoid dealerships, unless you wanna pay for their hiked prices.

    +1 for tint tech. they do amazing work! from vinyl and film to tint, they have always went above and beyond what was necessary.

    It's a way different skill set for vinyl wrap VS clear bra.

    Vinyl wrap is thin and easy to stretch, the biggest different is wrap is installed dry and stretched, clear bra is applied wet with a sort of slippery soapy water type solution.

    If you can do one you should be able to do the other but the process is very different.

    I do PPF install as a main job, & vinyl wrapping as aside thing.
    As modelexis stated the skill set is not the same per say but the theory is same.

    As per dealerships doing vinyl wrapping, I have yet to know any as they mainly will outsource it to a 3rd party company and do a mark up
