This started as a list of things worth owning. This one we found, and it never came off.
Full description
Our high-gloss carbon fiber sheets are made of 100% genuine carbon fiber, using a 2x2 twill weave fabric. One side of the carbon fiber sheet carries a mirror-like high gloss finish, while the back is pre-textured to bond to any surface, using the optional 3M high-performance double-sided adhesive (arrives unattached). The finish is perfect for high-end decorative applications. Please see below for more information on each carbon fiber sheets thickness to better understand what makes sense for your application.
Thickness Details
0.25mm Thickness (1/100")
About
The 0.25mm thickness sheet is made up of just one layer of 3k 2x2 twill weave carbon fiber and has a stiff paper-like feel. It's worth noting that because only one layer is used, you will get a shine-through effect between the corners of where the carbon fiber threads are crossing over each other. The best way to describe this is if you were to put the sheet in front of a window, you see light shining through like pinholes. If your application is being applied to another surface, making sure that surface is a dark color is a great way to hide any shine-through effect without having to move up to a thicker material.
Rigidity
This sheet is best suited for applications on flat surfaces or pipes due to the fact that it only bends in one direction. It can bend enough that it could wrap around a 1-inch diameter pipe. It is not recommended on compound curves, convex or concave surfaces.
Cutting
It can be cut with scissors, a paper cutter, or a razor knife. No other sanding or prep work is required.
0.5mm Thickness (1/50")
About
The 0.5mm thickness sheet is made up of just one layer of 6k 2x2 twill heavy card stock feel. Like the thinner 0.25mm sheet, you will get some shine-through effect against light, but it's much less.
Rigidity
This sheet is best suited for applications on flat surfaces or pipes due to the fact that it only bends in one direction. It can bend enough that it could wrap around a 4-inch diameter pipe, making it about 4-times more rigid than the 0.25mm sheet. It is not recommended on compound curves, convex or concave surfaces.
Cutting
It can be cut with scissors, a paper cutter, or a razor knife. No other sanding or prep work is required.
1.0mm Thickness (1/25")
About
The 1.0mm thickness sheet is made up of just one layer of 6k 2x2 twill heavy card stock feel. You will not get any shine through at this thickness like you may have seen with thinner material.
Rigidity
This sheet is best suited for applications on flat surfaces or pipes due to the fact that it only bends in one direction. It can bend enough that it could wrap around a 12-inch diameter pipe, making it about 4-times more rigid than the 0.5mm sheet and 12-times more rigid than the 0.25mm. It is not recommended on compound curves, convex or concave surfaces.
Cutting
It can be cut with scissors, a paper cutter, or a razor knife. No other sanding or prep work is required.
