Hey there,
Sorry to hear. Feel free to reach out to us at hello@slickwraps.com if you still can't get it right.

Slickwraps
Just went to their website to decide on what skin I want for my 6 plus and noticed they are located in Andover ks which is about 20 mins from where I'm located. So I was wondering if they carry the skins in store or if I still have to order online?
cool. just in time, as my new phone will be here tomorrow and glad the price is lower than the normal wraps, cause at previous prices if choosing clear was gonna go with BSE. a few questions:
from what i read, looks like people have a choice of either matte or glossy, but there is no choice upon checkout. however, i saw the description and it sounds like it will come with one of each? FYI, referring to the 2 back wraps only, as will use a tempered glass protector for front. glossy back screen protector is useless, for me at least.
what material is this, and is it made by 3m like the other wraps? is it cutout the exact same as the other slickwraps? how thick is it (plan on putting a case as well), and will it play nice on the edges with a front tempered glass screen protector?
do all these people in this thread really own a heat gun? i own a fair amount of tools and after completing several projects in the last few years, have never needed to use one of these. will a hair dryer work, cause I really hate applying screen protectors (dry ones at least) and am horrible at it. r u guys buying one just for applying screen protectors to all your devices, lol?
TIA for answering my questions. im a lil OCD (don't think im alone) but i also don't like to be surprised after placing an order, so i do my research beforehand.
Hey Tony,
Sorry for the confusion.
We we're originally going to offer Gloss but decided against it.
The Full Body comes with 2 identical backs *1 Extra, 1 Front, 2 XD Screen Protectors that fit inside the front wrap. If you plan to use a tempered front, I would suggest just going with the two (2) backs.
This is a unique 3M material. Slickwraps, Inc is a 3M converter and has access to some very cool unreleased materials. The cutouts are exactly the same as the other wraps, Ultra Precision. Let me check the exact thickness, I don't see it being an issue.
Hair Dryer or Incandescent light bulbs work. It's wet install using our Naked Juice. <- People love this stuff
Thanks,
Weston

Hi Weston,
Thanks for the quick reply. Np, I am extremely inquisitive and well aware of it
Yea, was only planning to go with the two backs, and think the right business decision is to NOT offer gloss as an option. What impresses me the most about Apple apart from all the innovation Jobs brought to the table, was their insight to eliminate choices for their consumers by offering less options (the paradox of choice), way before everyone else.

That is good to know about the install. Ah damn, just finished my gallon of Naked Juice Green Machine a few minutes ago (true story). If you can save me a trip to Costco, that'd be great!

So true. Love it.
Ever try the purple Naked Juice? Yum.
Have a Good Night!

I want to get a matte white wrap for my iPad Mini 3, not the carbon version but like the one that I purchased for my iPhone 6. I do not see that it is available for the new iPad Mini. I am looking for back only.
Thanks

No, but you have me intrigued and think I may have to now.
You as well. My phone is coming in tomorrow, so thinking about placing an order this weekend but with my luck, shortly after you guys will have some sort of huge deal or discount code for Black Friday next week. Guess that's more logic rather than being unlucky, but ya know what I mean.
Naked Juice. Literally. Like Odwalla, but better. If you've never tried it, you're in for a treat.
Weston could you clarify? When you say two backs, these cover the sides as well correct? It just don't include screen protection?
Sorry for the confusion. Thanks!
Sorry for the confusion. Thanks!
Hey Weston...
Will Slickwraps be closed around the Thanksgiving holiday?
Will Slickwraps have any Black Friday style discount/offering?
I feel I finally picked the skin/wrap I want (though now the clear is an interesting choice) just need to push myself to pull the trigger

Hey,
Yes, they cover back, sides and top & bottom. Complete coverage.
No screen protection for Back Only selection.
Hope this helps.

Does the matte clear have any texture to it similar to how the carbon fiber wrap does. One of the reason I like these wraps is it adds a little more grip to the slick sides of the 6/6+.
The grip is rubbery, not extreme like Carbon. I can say with personal use the last few days it's more improvement over OEM. The number #1 compliment i've been getting are people's disbelief a wrap is on my IP6+.

we are headed to a family dinner on Friday. I am just hosting a meal (no turkey)
Beef Tenderloin, blue-cheese mashed taters, etc. nothing too TurkeyDay.
Though there will be beer and wine.
and the 50% savings is only 4 hours? or are the 4hours for the other specials?
This is all I know so far. 50% off 4 hours only and all day Gift Cards.
Not sure this will be extended. Last year it was.
Cyber Monday will be going on as well. Not sure the amount.
Weston
oh great! Cyber Monday ...but if Friday is 50% OFF I am happy with that.
I could almost get 2! Black Carbon and a clear.
so, gift card for SlickWraps...to use after that initial order, I'd guess. not too bad
It's a tangible Gift Card you'll receive with your order. Good for 1 year.
