Default Anyone have direct experience with this product?

Anyone on here using this specific product?

I don't have experience of that specific product but it looks fine and should hold up well.

I was never a fan of Union Jacks on cars and wanted a leaper but couldn't find any such product so I designed one myself based on the official leaper graphics and ordered from some online print shop. Seemingly similar material as in the one you linked to and has held up well for more than four years now.

Oh nice, I like that. Yeah, I’m one of those fellas that would like to pay homage to the UK for enriching our lives with these beautiful machines ;-0

I went with the leaper also and have had zero issues with it.

I bought one from a forum member, I believe, through this thread

https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/f...reveal-264670/

The member that was creating them is kevin_jag


The most important thing is to wash and completely clean the mounting surface. Wipe down with denatured alcohol to remove any grease, oil, wax, silicones, etc. Exercise your OCD FULLY to measure and mark centers on the short sides and long sides.

No signs of deterioration, but the car is parked inside.. also live in Wisconsin and we don't have the heat other regions experience.

Thanks for your thoughts. Only thing I would suggest to folks is be careful with using pure alcohol near paint and plastics. If one is careful and uses common sense it generally probably would be fine, but as we know us humans don’t always go that route ;-o lol

There are specialized products like Mother’s Surface Prep and Gyeon Prep that are for exactly this. Even with these products I’d be careful, as there is an element of alcohol in them too (just not pure alcohol), but they are more forgiving and get the job done. I’ve used both a fair amount and can’t speak highly enough about them. Both great products.

Oh, didn’t notice that…It’s still on their website so I assume they could/would src one for a buyer eventually? Not totally sure though…

If they're using a plotter, I'm sure they'll be back "in stock" this week.

I only noticed it after returning to the link a few hours later in the day.

Shows that forums are good for business.
