Maybe this is in the wrong section but I couldn't think where else to put it so here goes.

I'm considering wrapping a couple of the interior trim panels on my car with high gloss/"piano" black. Can anyone recommend a good brand and somewhere to buy it? Any tips on applying this sort of thing gratefully received also.

Don't know about suppliers Google? For application tips try You Tube.

I used the 3m stuff when I wrapped some panels in my interior.

I used a hair dryer to put it on and a fresh Stanley blade to trim.

It's also a lot easier to take the trim out of the car than have to do it while it's still in place.

Thanks, I actually got hold of some 3M Scotchprint stuff and had a go last night but it didn't come out so well. The vinyl itself has a slightly orange-peel sort of texture to it and the panels in question have a texture of their own, which showed through in some places once applied so didn't look good at all.

What sort of stuff did you use? I know 3M do stuff called "Di-NOC", I wonder if that's any thicker and better finished...
