ORACAL® 970RA Premium Wrapping Cast - ORAFOL's flagship vehicle wrapping product. Designed to replicate an automotive paint-like finish. With over 100 color and finish options, you can find the perfect style to take your vehicle from ordinary to extraordinary.

Our gloss finish is unrivaled due to its unique dual-layer construction that gives your vehicle the “wet paint” look. But if you want to stand out, try our matte finish - nothing sets off the lines of a car like a matte or metallic matte finish. Because ORACAL® 970RA has served in both commercial and consumer applications for many years, you can trust our product's reliability and durability. ORACAL® 970RA is ready-to-use straight out of the box with a built-in protective clear coat.
