Orafol – although being more challenging to install solo, has a much better finish and durability and due to being a thicker material offers better protection
Their 3951 print film and laminate are great!
Avery is great for solo fast installs but their quality and durability has been declining over the recent years
Vinod
Avery by far the best

Orafol hands down. 3951 proslide and 290g is the sweet spot!! 25 years in the industry and this is my go to !!!

Both have pros and cons, but I will have to go with Orafol. Orafol wraps have some of the best finishes and colors in the game but are harder to install. Plus better longetivity. Avery tends to leave glue lines but it is a easier install. Orafol vinyl for the win!

Orafol for quality, this chart I believe is spot on as well, stopped using Avery altogether due to poor finishes and longevity. Removing Avery also leaves that fine blue hazy adhesive, really sucks to clean off even after one year.

Spot on chart, very accurate. I’ve been in the wrap industry for 10+ years and I would have to vote for Orafol, for its high quality material and colors. Avery is nice too, easy install but I gotta go with what looks the best
