mahal pa la yang car foil ano? sa bagay import from abroad pa kasi yung foil na ginagmit nila e, kala ko it is more expensive lang ng konte sa mga carbon fiber sticker, yun pala EXPENSIVE pala talaga,
for the protection of the paint daw ba? IMO sa tingin ko pwede naman i-maintain ng wax and detailing yung original paintjob, foiling is just an other option, kung ayaw talaga siguro ma-virginan yung paintjob mo ng masasamang elemnto.

Yup. Isa yan sa purpose ng pag-foil. You get to retain your OEM paint na shiny.
There's one foil available dun, it's clear vinyl. So basically, your paint will remain as is, may "plastic cover" lang on top of it to avoid paint chips and the like. So kung iremove mo yun, good as new pintura.

Mahal prices ng Foil-a-car sa Fort. It scales according to the work done. I believe around 80k for a clear-foil body wrap, 150k sa mga normal color wraps and 250k upwards sa mga chrome-foils and other exotic wraps.
It has its own pros and cons, but personally, I believe the hurdle is the price. With a hundred grand, I could have 3 good quality "washovers" for my daily car. Unless you bought a truly exotic car where retaining the original paint color has its own economic benefits, foiling makes little sense for a daily driver.
Meron din mga foiling services that isn't as expensive as Foil-a-car.. for example Banawe has Autofoil which is distributed by a personal friend of mine (I 'could' always contact him if you'd like). Last time he tried "wooing" me, foiling my midsize sedan to matte white costs 70k or roughly half the price of Foil-a-car. Whether there is a discrepancy in quality.. that I got no idea. I doubt it naman eh since it all boils down to the wrapping and installation.
For clear vinyl foils, hell.. I'd rather invest in one of those Optimum Opticoats that adds a few clearcoats from the paint. This way, I'll have a car that looks like I have thoroughly waxed and maintained it for months to come. Then again, this might be because (a) I'm a cheapskate [says the person who plows his wallet into car audio] and/or (b) I like detailing.Last edited by jhnkvn; April 7th, 2012 at 02:53 PM.
