Question about wraps

[UncLeJunkLe]

How hard is it to remove the wrap from a mod?

And when you remove it, is there a bunch of glue/residue left behind that you have to remove?

I'm thinking about buying a wrap for a mod for the first time ever, but I don't want it to ruin the mod should I want to remove it later.

Haven't use a mod wrap since... Vamo days..
Rubbing alcohol normally cleans up any residue.

Depends who you get the wrap from.

I took a jwrap wrap off an old mod before I tossed it, and yea, it all came off, little residue. I'm sure a bit of alcohol would have made the mod near perfect.

But the point? My wraps seem to outlast the mods they are stuck onto. They look great after 2, 3, 4 years. And the mods that are left unwrapped look like they went through some mid-age battle!!!

Go ahead, pick something cool, and enjoy it.

Easy to remove once started and very little, if any, residue. This is on J-Wrap and Vapor Skinz.

Old school method for removing any leftover adhesive is to use lighter fluid, a small amount on a cloth and a little effort gets rid of it all.

I've used a ton of 'em and they've never done any damage. I only buy from VaporSkinz though, and he uses quality matetrials (all 3M)*. JWraps used to be fine too but they're no longer around.

* Not counting for Dicodes for which I use ZapWrapz out of the UK.

Not much help here as the only mod wraps I ever bought was a J-Wrap for a chrome Provari 2.5 (2013) that was a finger print magnet, and I think it was a Skinz for an asModus Snow Wolf Mini's black "finger print magnet" panels (2016). Both were put on when the mods were brand new, but I never took them all the way off. However I did have to take the one partially on the Provari back off to align it better. That was easy to do and it did not mess it up. Anyway, they are both buried in storage somewhere still wearing those wraps.
