    Great video man, and spot on with doing this yourself, takes time and patience but is very doable and cost effective, i wrapped my first truck a year ago and about to wrap my new one. Saved myself 5,000$ doing it myself. For anyone wondering most shops start at $3500 for a basic color change for trucks and suvs. After watching a bunch of videos i learned that this next wrap job ill work a little smarter by measuring and cutting the panels then before ripping the liner off ill cut out the extra material so i can use it for scraps like mirrors and small stuff.

    I bought me a used 2013 F250 for $800 about 2 years ago and been wanting to change the color on it. I'm not sure if I can do a wrap alone but still learning on UA-cam.

      I would say wrap it changing the look making it look nice.. from what I know your vehicle has to be clean.. if it isn't able to stick to the truck then magnets is needed and also helps you hold the wrap for stretching.. I well try it once just to do it... Maybe get people to get into it.. but for me I would say you can wrap can go 2 ways.. 1 changing the color and seeing in person if you really want that color.. another is if you want to change the color and if your still with the truck or car aka loan.. then wrap is also perfect.. under the wrap we'll always be the original color without messing with it.. con is after 2 yrs honestly to be safe.. you have to take it off and redo it all over again..

    What I'm wondering in regards to trucks. How do you cover the area behind the cab (in between the cab and the bed) where there is like 2 inches of space?

    • @boazrijff5761
      @boazrijff5761 2 роки тому +1

      Wrap shops typically remove the cab. It can be done, but you need to be a master at placing knifeless tape in that small space

    I get my ass kicked trying to tint my front windows on my F150. That little dip down on the window gets me every time. I just can't get a feel for it. And for whatever stupid reason I get that "i think i can do it this time" kind of confidence every now and then. Only to do exactly what you said, rip it off and ball it up and chuck it and my neighbors definitely hear some colorful language every time.
    Trying this would likely make me rip the skin on my face off out of frustration 😂

    Good demonstration mate, I did my bonnet (hood) just about pulled my hair out ...ripped one bit off the edge 😳 and thought I'm not starting again so I spliced apiece in and you can only just see it.

    • @Luckingsworth

      Other option is just do as much as you can with your hand and use a pole with a soft end to get it "good enough" in the places you cant see anyway

    • @apexcorner45
      @apexcorner45  5 місяців тому +1

      I never had a problem with color changing vehicles. It is just a giant sticker so it can come off whenever so I don't think it's an issue. A local vinyl Wrap shop could probably confirm that for you.

    Bro, i got a 100-foot roll of the exact car wrap for $ 3.00 at a amish store. They buy pallets from Amazon that is returned for what ever reason and they sell it dirt chep. Also got enough sound deading material to do my entire cab of my truck the engine bay firewall. The under neath of th3 hood and the front fender wells . For 7.00. I felt guilty when i handed them a 10 dollar bill and walked out with hundreds of dollars woth of materiel. In my defense, i did ask them if their prives were correct, and they said yes. I guess they pay like $60 to $90 per pallet load of returns. A lot of the stuff hasnt even been taken out of the package

    It's not rocket surgery or brain science like these dude in the comments says 😆 yes!! some people might get it done BUT there's levels to this. Yes, it looks good on videos when is done but a few days or weeks it will start getting bubbles from not using the squeegee or it will start peeling from not post heating the right places. Not to mention he's doing it outdoors witch it's a big NO NO but he made it happen and looks good 👍🤜🤛
