How will does it hold up on scratches? Can you just wash your car like you normally would?

any idea of how many square feet of that material it would take for the whole car (factoring in some extra for the unavoidable mess ups that would take place)?

The photo above looks like flat black. looks like its painted. my black has a bit of sparkle to it under the sun. more "satin black" than flat black.

almost done.... have a few pieces left..
hoping to debut the car here at the GoldRushRally and BOS 5..

The car washes more easily. soap and water will clean off just fine. no wax needed. the wrap is waterproof, so acts sorta like a wax. scratches are fine if you dont deliberately scratch it with a blade or key.. light fingernail touch is fine. it is similar material as your decals.
