• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Matte vs Gloss for Graphics/Wraps? Any recommendations?

I’m new to the whole graphics game. I’ve only done pin stripping or Rally strips. I want to do the ‘ol war bird’ full wrap from Spiralus but don’t know if I should do matte or gloss. Has anyone had experience with both finishes? If so which would recommend? Is the matte hard to clean? Does the matte wear well? The bike will not be a show bike but it will ridden and ridden well.

Thank you in advance for your input.

I say gloss for no other reason than looks. Both should wear well as long as the graphic material is a quality product to begin with. 3M, VViVid, etc. Laminated is much more expensive but will wear for way longer.
