The friction hold plastic used to wrap stuff now is NOT like the plastic Jim is referring to.That stuff has to be tied on somehow,and air gets under it and makes it move.The thin stretchy stuff,(I call it shrink wrap but it's really not)holds itself in place with no fasteners.The first time I saw it used on cars was in the late 80's,when I made a few trips between Daytona and southern N.H.hauling cars.The outfit we hauled for did the loading,strapping,and the wrapping on some of the cars.It was mostly done on the bottom tier of cars in case something dripped on them from the top tier.We would cut it off using a letter opener.The first trailer I pulled was a 6 car,and the second was a 9.
