Anyone have suggestions for wrapping vinyl on door covers?  I am wrapping door panels with vinyl using some spray adhesive out of a glue gun, heated the vinyl to get it to stretch so that it meets the contours of the door panel.  After about 2-3 days the vinyl material raised up in curved areas for what ever reason and yes the glue gun being used and glue itself are good.  I have used this glue gun/glue many time before and never had any problems.  In my second attempt I then sanded the door panel and applied a spray adhesive to enhance the bond between materials. Second attempt was unsuccessly.  Any tips???
