I know Gary personally. He's a great guy. Well, he USED to be a great guy then he abandoned us and moved to Florida.
Now the Cowtown Mopars club members have to order their stuff and can't pick it up in person.
He moved to Florida? When did that happen?

Gary .You use Avery vinyl {correct } what mil ?How does it last and workability wise compare to a 3m product ?/
Yes, I mainly use Avery A6 material. The matte black I use is 3 mil calendared material - It is the closest I have found to the "original" stuff. It is rated for 7 years of outdoor use. If there is a special color you need and conformability is truly an issue, I'd recommend upgrading to the A9 Cast material which is thinner and more pliable and also a bit more expensive (although the matte black has a slightly different sheen & texture than the original stuff) The thing to remember is that 3M also makes several grades of material, so just because someone is selling a stripe made with 3M material, it does not necessarily mean it is a better material. I have used Avery products for about 10 years now and have never had a single complaint from a customer about it. Matter of fact, now that I am back in south Florida, I am seeing several vehicles that I did well before I moved away 5 years ago and they still look great.
I also premask all of my kits using something called R-Tape Conform. It is a latex/rubber based transfer tape that allows you to work the material onto the vehicle better than traditional paper based transfer tapes.
