Perfect Match
"I couldn’t be happier with this product. The Teak vinyl was a perfect match for the t-molding I already had laying around. Easy to install. Made for a great finish to my arcade cabinet."

Getting ready to re-do my car
"I have been struggling to find a really nice wood to re-wood my Roadmaster wagon and I think I have found the one. The look of the teak is pretty close the original, but has an updated look and feel to it!"
Teak wood wrap
"The texture and color is amazing. I was using this for a customers wagoneer. This is not a wrap film, not air release so be prepared. For more flat applications its awesome."
This Teak Wood film is amazing!
"I have an old desk that had been pretty battered and well-worn over time. So much so that certain areas of the desktop had become 'bubbled' due to some moisture. So having used Vvivid product on my car, I thought to research what sorts of options there might be to re-cover my desk after sanding it down. I was excited to learn that Vvivid makes 'architectural films' and found what I believed would be a pretty decent match to my desk's appearance. I will say that the first photo on their listing does make it appear as though the film could seem a little 'goldish', but fear not the match to my desk and presumably your project was quite close. I think my 3rd photo I've attached speaks volumes as to the finished product and I couldn't be more pleased. I have other matching furniture to the desk and now seem like a perfect set. The finish on the film is somewhat 'rough' giving it a nice texture (matte?). I think unlike the glossy films, this will hold up to scuffs and scratches much better. As for working with an architectural film for the first time and being familiar with Vvivid's carbon fiber and headlight tint films, I found this to be somewhat thicker (stiffer?) and a bit less forgiving that the automotive ones. Heat does help, but be cautious as it can deform easily (as written on their website) and an overstretched point (like a finger poke) can create a white 'dent'. I might suggest you buy some extra as I'm not sure how this 'stiffer' film will behave on corners or points. I was lucky to just need to cover my desktop so it was pretty straightforward. Also, I did manage to cut it with knifeless tape and it came out perfect. All in all, I'm thrilled with the outcome and can't continue to say enough good things about Vvivid films. I honestly feel like I've got a brand-new desk now."
Not happy
"Poor quality. Rips easy. Does not seem to be vinyl but more of a plastic. Adhesive sticks but comes off easily, not sure how long this will last"
Great Product
"Very nice product and easy to work with!"
The grain runs the short
"The grain runs the short direction on this 1ft sample, and I wish that was more clear up front. The color and texture are not realistic, even for vinyl, but I’ll play around with it for small projects. The major competitor’s product is 4x the cost but is far more pleasing to look at."
As described.

Teak Vinyl - Sweet as H***
"I've used this product twice as a wrap for a couple of classic arcade games. If you need a fairly exact match for an early 80s Sega or a Centuri game, you'll want to use this. The pattern and color are a great match and it goes on SOOOO smooth due to the heavy weight nature of this product. You will have zero issues do to wrinkling or bubbles. I really love and trust this product."
Wood Grain
"High quality vinyl. Sharp colors and grains. Forgiving and easy to apply."
Q&A
- Is this item durable for commercial use in a restaurant? Scratch resistant? And can you send a sample?
- We've wrapped many of our desks in the office with this type of material. It holds up quite well but if you look closely you will notice scratches, but this happens even on real finished wood surfaces in bars/restos so I wouldn't be too concerned. For extra protection you can always laminate the material to give it an added layer if deemed necessary.
- Does the Teak Wood Grain have the same feel as the Dark Ebony? I ordered a sample of the Light Teak and it doesn't.
- Teak wood would have the same finish as light teak. It is a different type of wood feel.
