bunnyman666 Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Do you heat that up to get out the bubbles? Is it permanent or temporary? What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow? No, I did not use heat at all. It is both! It's meant to be somewhat temporary when NHL guys get traded, but there's no reason it cannot last if you didn't take it off. The Vinyl is very heavy duty. It's literally the same concept as Pad Skinz. Could be temporary or could be left in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad this thread popped up. I was looking at ways to design my flat white mask to match my new pad purchase. Painting companies were looking for $600+ to paint it black and add a few green lines (ridiculous). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It works really well for adding a few lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could buy a pinstriping kit, paint your lid with bedliner sauce, get out your pinstriping kit with your HOK lime green, then charge others to duplicate your handiwork.

motowngoalie Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 My opinion of course, but I don't understand the appeal of this product. There's other companies that are doing better versions of vinyl decals at literally half the cost, and you aren't limited to one template (Custom Cages). Assuming "custom" is more than the $99.99 CAD listed for a stock USA/CA kit on their site, a full custom wrap can be had from JF Aumais for $180 CAD.

Rod Laforme drew that logo and gave me (and my son) a hat with the logo on one of my trips to the store many years ago. I miss that guy a lot. He was a great guy who was the definition of customer service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was always a treat to order new gear through or just go there and talk gear with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason Custom Cages is so cheap is that the print quality is garbage, and the material quality is even worse garbage. I've had two Custom Cages kits installed by a sign shop in town, and even they can't get it looking smooth and neat. The print is low resolution and fades easily. The material on Cage Skinz is nice, with air channels to help getting rid of bubbles easily and it also more elastic to let you stretch it over the awkward curves on a goalie mask. For $40 more than Custom Cages, you're getting a much nicer looking, easier to install, and more durable finished product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to make sure it looks great and stays great for as long as possible. I am planning on getting a skin for my Protechsport mask that's coming in 10 months. Check out my design!! I used three of my sister's paintings to make it. So stoked!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had Michel from Protechsport ship my mask to JF Aumais to wrap after he completed it. It worked great as they're both in the Montreal area.
