The film
A French cast vinyl
for full wraps.
Hexis HX20000 is a multi-layered cast film 100 to 110 microns thick (3.9 to 4.3 mil), coated with a pressure-sensitive, solvent-based acrylic adhesive. The adhesive is structured for faster application and air evacuation, and Hexis designed the series for full vehicle wraps and heavily deformed surfaces (HX20000 technical data sheet, revision 12.25).
Where it differs from 3M 2080 and Avery SW900 is rated life and price: Hexis rates solid colours shorter, and its rolls cost less. Full specification lives on the Hexis HX20000 technical data sheet.

These are the site's planning ranges for any premium cast film, not Hexis quotes. Material is a small share of an installed job, so the lower Hexis roll price ($255.00 against $356.00 for 3M 2080 gloss black at MetroRestyling) moves the installed price far less than labour does.
From the data sheet
What Hexis publishes
about HX20000.
01
Rated life by colour
Indicative vertical durability, central European climate: 6 years white and black, 5 years other colours, 4 years metallic colours.
02
Horizontal surfaces
Hexis calls the bonnet particularly severe because of horizontal sun exposure and engine heat, and divides the vertical figure by an exposure factor for other angles.
03
Thickness
100 to 110 microns (3.9 to 4.3 mil) depending on reference, slightly thicker than 3M 2080 at 3.5 mil without adhesive.
04
Adhesive
Solvent-based acrylic, structured for faster application and air evacuation, with permanent adhesion that is optimal after 24 hours.
05
Care
Hexis advises parking in the shade by day and in a closed garage at night where possible, or under a loose cover.
06
Batch matching
For a job needing several rolls of one colour, Hexis recommends using a single batch number.
Where Skintac loses
The honest tradeoffs.
Shorter rated life on colours
5 years vertical for colours against 10 for Avery SW900 and 8 for 3M 2080, on each maker's own data sheet.
Fewer US installers
Fewer US shops work with Hexis than with 3M or Avery Dennison, so check that a shop near you stocks it before you pick a colour.
