Clear Vinyl Wrap?

Does anyone know if there is a clear vinyl wrap that I could use to wrap the armrest in my truck with. I was thinking about covering it in stickers of various Brands I've purchased from but don't want a bunch of sticky residue and what not if I ever decide I don't want it on there anymore.

Hi there you can pick up a clear vinyl from a fabric store ,(down there by the foot) they sell it for table cloths, clear and patterned (not sticky ,adhesive) also from a hardware store Shelf Liner the one with the white paper with blue grid lines on it,is the clear one (THIS ONE IS SELF ADHESIVE ON ONE SIDE).Also larger lengths/ widths at a plastic shop(usually a place selling Fibreglassing materials,plexiglass, plastic totes ,boxes,etc. & they may have a compatible spray adhesive.

Oh Sorry, just went back to your inquiry and noticed you are not down there you are up here, By the metre.And Canadian Tire & or Home hardware both carry the shelf liner.Fabricland and sometimes Walmart have the Table cloth Vinyl in the sewing fabric area usually.

Sweet. Thank you man. I wasn't sure what would be best for getting a nice wrap without a bunch of wrinkles. I'll have to frequent Canadian Tire again.

take a heat gun and heat up the vinyl and it will stretch and form without wrinkles. just be careful not to get it too hot to melt it.
