Reflective Gloss Red Vinyl Car Wrap Film DIY Roll Easy to Install No-Mess Decal (1ft x 48 Inch)

The vinyl was used to make racing stripes on the hood of a 2016 Cadillac XTS Luxury 3.6L. It came in a 12" x 48" sheet. I cut it in half length wise to make two 6" hood stripes:

I must have received a different brand item or something because this is definitely not reflective at all, it IS metallic red yes but NOT reflective, I'm looking at the images of some of the buyers and that is not even close to whatever I got, here are some pictures with flash & light off & some with just regular light on both on a light background vs dark background.

Quality product

I bought this vinyl to cut with my plotter. It's a good looking vinyl rolled up but when flattened out or straightened to feed through a plotter it "humped"up in places and was difficult to cut. It needed to be removed from the release liner and then re-applied to flatten out the humps.I'm sure it hand cuts quite well. Also it has a very aggressive adhesive and that's ok but you can forget about re-positioning this vinyl if youlay it on crooked. The vinyl adhesive and silver base will delaminate from the clear overlaminate if you attempt to peel it back up, leaving a very stubborn silver material behind.If you use a wet application method it's quite good. It is cost effective though. Long term use I'm not sure

Haven’t had a chance to check it at night just yet but during the day the sheen and depth of the color is very very nice once this project bike is finished I’ll find o it tits reflective qualities. Side note the shipping and handling time was absolutely phenomenal. Extremely fast

This reflective vinyl looks good in sun and low light BUT if you are putting this on your car, it needs to go onto another vinyl. Do not apply directly to your paint. I applied this to a matte black vinyl from VViViD to make a two-tone livery, and those pieces peeled up OK, but one piece went directly onto the paint and it was NIGHTMARE to remove after only three months. This vinyl crinkles easily and is very difficult to work with. This vinyl falls apart. It also fades, the pieces that are 8 months old are noticably duller than new pieces. As a decorative element on top of another automotive grade vinyl, it's OK.

I am very disappointed in this vinyl. It's very very thin which makes it difficult to weed. I gave it 3 starts due to it's reflective feature which is what my customer asked for but I'm almost worried it won't hold up on a car. I guess only time will tell. I will update my review as I actually use the product on a car but the material is very thin it is nothing like the reflective 3m material I have used before.

I included a before, after and night shot to show the reflection quality. I will share that when applying, be very cautious. The adhesion is quick and firm. If You attempt to reposition, the reflection portion of the tape will come off. All in all quite happy with the end install.
