Is this a bad wrap or kind of normal?

So I went with PPF from Legend. It’s really thick, the guy said it would be hard to do the edges because of how thick it is. I told the guy I wanted the edges wrapped , I asked him are you comfortable doing that because if you are not then… he assured me he was and wanted my CT for a week to do a good job. It’s been wrapped for 2 weeks now I don’t want to put him on blast just yet because he said bring it in and he will fix it but I’m questions how with out redoing it? If it’s an easy fix then cool no big deal but is it ?
is this others experience with wraps or am I being to anal ? Like if it’s peeling that way already then how the F is it going to last ?

He will add more or a tackier glue. Could be lack of a good cleaning, weak glue tackiness or a number of things. I’d surly have them address it tho. I’ll be wrapping mine myself when I finally decide to do it. Silver still is with me.

Yeah as long as he can get it to stick and stay I’m not going to make a fuss , the silver teslas I’m seeing looks nice 👍🏽

I did my own, don’t have any edges like that. Suspect the surface wasn’t cleaned pre application. Hopefully it can be fixed

With a light colored wrap like that you should have just done no edge wrap.

Probably didn't clean the UNDERSIDE of the edges very well if it's just the edges that are coming up...

But I would have them redo ALL the edges because just fixing the 'messed up' ones will likely mean that later on, when they have been heated up and cooled down over the next year, they will start coming loose all over the place...

You don't want to have to take it back over and over again...

Yeah I want to say they but I know he will fight doing that with the labor and material involved. I took it in yesterday and he fixed it all soo we will see
