I just wrapped my whole car learning from your videos. Thanks bro
My blood pressure went thru the roof, just watching this! You are absolutely amazing! I thought it was impossible! Great job!
Your patience is really praiseworthy dear!!!!!!
I knew right from the beginning without it being on a tank stand (bolted or not) handling it was going to be crazy, definitely stressful, plus knowing the primer wasnt finish sanded for adherence. You killed it! 💪👊
ck...you've been a huge help in vinyl wrapping over the years man. thank you so much! because of your tips over the years I was able to make a 2hr long how to wrap a motorcycle for beginners tutorial. it's helped a ton of people! I always encourage people to check your channel out because it's helped me a ton! this shit is dope man! I'll be routing my moto people to this video when they ask me about tank wrapping haha
I watch your videos too!! haha thanks for your work
Tina Tee 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Adobo, talk about paying it forward, you've helped me and so many others in our tight knit MC community. Not only do you make easy to watch, very informative, and well produced videos; you really have this way about you, a very calm and collective manner which really translates, keeping me calm, (and I'm sure know how big a difference that can make.) You're like this grand master moto vinyl guru, I was on the fence when I first looked into wrapping my bike and you made it seem achievable, you sir inspire confidence and for that I'm grateful. Thanks

I just started watching , you definitely have the perfect temperament for this job! And a thumbs up👍in explaining everything
I am in the process of wrapping my Harley Fatboy in Vvivid Satin chrome red and its been real challenge - this video and your other motorcycle tank wrap has helped me greatly. Wrapping the front of the tank is the biggest challenge as essentially its a half ball but by watching you pulling the vinyl from front to back which made the wrap fall into place when I had to do the sides. Next time I stop in on my way to the Yummy market I will bring my Harley and show you how successful I've been by watching your vids. Thanks so much Christian!!!
Man, I fought my tank and did it in three pieces. Got it looking good! Rode it to work today, in the sun where I had used knifeless tape, it shrank up and now I have to start over. Did I stretch too much? It's such a complex design, I'm about to give up. You make it look so easy.
Christian.....very nice of you to do that wrap for a charity. When you showed the gas tank at the beginning of the video, I had visions of it being as difficult as the other gas tank vid you did. You really knocked this one out even with all of the different tapers on the tank. Great wrap, and I know they're going to love it when they see it.
My best,
Scott
So this made a huge difference for me. I was having a really hard time with wrinkles when i would round edges like a bumper as it rolls under the car. Or any time the lines would form a V.
Glassing the wrinkles out instead of chasing them with my squeegee really sorted out my issues. Just an amateur doing my own car is all and no training other than CK Wraps.
Anyway it was like a light coming on when i saw him glass the rounded edges of the tank and simply pull the wrinkles away. Thanks man.
Such a difference i just did my side mirror with ease. I mean it was really simple now that i know wtf.
Bro. Love the way you be patient with this job. I might throw it all away at first 15 mins
Thanks for knowledge
Yeah u did say right
Yea no shit man....me too. Dayyuuum that looked hard to do.
Very difficult for gas tanks of bikes.. but thanks for this video it will help us for sure.. thanks
I’m so happy you posted this video! This is what all my projects look like
You are SUPER patient. Result was amazing! Now I want to wrap my bike! Cheers.
Great Job. After watching two vinyl wrap gas tank videos of yours, I have the confidence to do this myself. I’m going to give it my best shot. I’m sure I’ll be successful.
Failure is only a step towards success.
Thanks for the shares.

What a super-patient person you are...also a great idea about getting creative when using separate pieces...I'm wanting to wrap my dirt bike plastics and I'll be adding graphics afterwards so the graphics will cover any seams I might have...thanks for posting.
I wrapped my Harley Davidson FatBoy gas tank on the bike in two pieces. I was super happy with the outcome.
The best wrapper ... he work very profesional ...max. perfect. Bravo...great...And thanks for the tips and tricks.
Wow!!! stunning work ck talk about reaching mount everest, that was a beautifull job you did, always a delight watching your art reach higher peaks of perfection, you da man ck.
Dude, I lost my installer and had an $80,000 2020 F450 crane truck conversion to wrap... I have never wrapped a vehicle solo in my life... I had to deal with the complex curves of the cab bottom at the lower corners and was always so concerned about stretching a commercial wrap... I got over that fear from watching your videos. A $3,000 3/4 cab wrap and I nailed it due to your coaching. It is a double cab... and I also wrapped a toolbox on the bed... the customer was ecstatic! Now I have the trucks little brother... same F450 only a single cab and 12 fleet vehicles from a company they just acquired to wrap. I can't thank you enough!
I had some "oh s*!t moments, but I backed off, read the vinyl, and took my time... much like this gas tank. Just break it off in small manageable chunks and keep moving.
Yes, I am going to the 3M certification course just because I do want formal training, but your online training has made all the difference in the world. Thanks bro!
This is great to hear. It's definitely possible to achieve great results doing installs on your own. You also learn a few more tricks. I've been wrapping alone for so long that even when an experienced installer comes to help, it usually slows things down. Like you said, just keep on moving.
@@CKWrapsChristian, do you have any suggestions for when you do need to hold something down when you wrap it? Let's just us a motorcycle helmet for instance?
I just figure it out on the spot. I have a couple of motorcycle gas tanks I did solo that weren't mounted. The videos are on my channel somewhere. Improvisation is probably one of the most important things to use.
I’ve seen so many of your videos, I feel like we should be inviting your family over for holidays. 😂 thank you for the content, man!
you are a true artist
Dude, your the best...a true artist....
I find myself squeezing and twisting my phone as im watching this .. ha,ha....
Amazing Talent & Work right there! *Mind* *Blown.* Wondered who's here, like me, watching the Vinyl Master work his Vinyl Wrap *magic* in mental preparation to attempt a *Darth* *Vader* *Helmet?*
Only about 4 minutes in and this makes me hate life, doing the front of a harley fairing for my first time wrapping (not smart, I know) and this looks exactly like me trying to do this thing. Thank you so much for doing this video, it let's me know that I might be able to do this... or get rid of the bike when my bf has his back turned lol
Wrapping is Definitely more challenging than it looks. I'm watching this because I'm having a hell of a time wrapping my car antenna. Matt be ble to do in like 5 minutes literally. I've spent hours trying to wrap the stupid thing.
Good job man! That was one of the first things I tried to wrap; after much cursing and going through miles of wrap I ended up spray painting the damn thing!
Just getting into this, and you taught me alot thanks, gave me qn idea to use a wheel that can be clamped in place. curves are difficult and your way helps very much, great job. All the best 👍🏻🙂
I am gonna need therapy after watching this video. I cant tell you how many time I ripped off the vinyl in my mind and would have taken it into my paint booth. The person who did the body work on the tank should be fired, because your work will be graded on the final finish and someone who notices the poor body work will attribute it to the person who did the wrap never thinking that you had to negotiate complex angles and ridiculous corners having nothing to do with the substrate you hand before you. I commend you on your patience and positive attitude. I can tell you love and if not mastered your craft. Great Job
Estupendo trabajo. Eres muy bueno y explicas muy bien . Te felicito y muchas gracias por tu dedicacion.
Incredible amount of patience.
Hardest thing to wrap is a motorcycle so coodos to you bro.
I've been watching your videos for a while and looking to wrap a few bits on my bike (part of the tank, belly pan and a couple of panels). Watching you do this has given me a better idea of how I need to do it - thanks 😁
One of the best videos by far. Really shows your skill level.
unbelievable. There literally were drops of sweat falling from my forehead while trying to wrap a gastank in 3m colorflip. This video gave me some new motivation haha
I'm wrapping my whole car with this.... the vinyl is no joke... its my first wrap ever
Million dollar look 👍
I'd be a nervous wreck about 1/4 of the way through this job! I think I will leave this task (and the cursing) to a pro like yourself as a wise person knows their limitations. Excellent video/tutorial for the not so faint of heart!
Great job man.
I would never have guessed it would be that hard!
Nice work Christian, you are the wrap Jedi Master!
Thanks for doing this for everybody Christian. Excellent work as always. Please post or link the bike reveal if you can. We'd love to see it! Keep kickin @$$ man!
That looks fantastic. Think I would've given up after 20 minutes of wrinkles.....mind you, I get frustrated with packing tape!
Would be great to see a picture of the finished tank and the complete bike. Hope they raised some good money for the charity. Was a pleasure to watch you demonstrate your skills and experience. Thanks for sharing.
You’re so professional with it man💯🔥I’m watching all your videos to learn as much as possible With not getting in person lessons
Nice video teaching us out here. 💯👍🏼🙂
thanks for the tips ! awesome video
I recently tried a tank that was similar to this one but the front was solid and didn't have that open space. I ended up asking a friend to paint it. Watching this video I see some things I can do differently. I'm asking another friend to drop off a tank or two so I can practice. I need to hit this next level. ;)
You are AMAZING. i love watching your videos as they are so great. You make it look sooo easy. i have done a few tanks and shudder every time im asked to do one
El jefe..,.. . your the best my friend .
what hell of job!!!! amazing my friend...you're the best.....
A second set of hands smoothing it down while you pull it into position would be so helpful.
Great job Christian, turned out awesome.
Incredible wrap, you are beyond a Master!
So stressed watching, haha. I have to do this tomorrow. Wish me luck. Thanks for taking the time to video this difficult process.
Your job is amazing I appreciate it, you're a really professional bro.
Master of patience.
Bro looks great gonna wrap my 2020 tacoma myself because of your channel 🤞
this was hella stressful to watch 😂 great job tho!
Righ!
Love this stretching 👍😂
Easily the most informative video on wrapping I've seen so far :) could have used it a week ago before wasting a tonne of material failing to do my helmet but oh well lol at least I'm not using expensive stuff :P
Hi !! after this tension.. you don't need to "heat" the tank .? to prevent retractation
Man if you don’t know what your doing this is extremely hard CK is a PRO when it comes to this and if he says it’s Hard than it extremely hard lol
Wow! Watching you do challenging projects like this really inspires me to try our my more basic projects. Haha! Thank you for sharing.
I am a loyal viewer on your channel
My respect is great to you
that you have so much patience to continue until it is right what you had in mind
Super with kind regards Han from the Netherlands
Great video, planning on doing my bike soon, “going to take my time as you said”
I am honest: Watching your first video a month ago, i thought "what a douchebag, - he's talking his way around to make any sense",- until i tried wrapping myself yesterday! But now, i truly appreciate all your loud thoughts and hints in deeply respect. It all came back to me yesterday. You are very skilled and i am thankful for your vids! Keep on!
Brother man could you do a video on wrapping a whole sport bike. Like all the fairings.
Look up Adobo Moto . He does a 2part video series wrapping every fairing of his R1. I've watched it and have been wrapping bikes for a bit now
@@Michael-jq5pf I'm struggling doing chrome CBR tank may end up doing multiple pieces started with the worst part I hope.
Man I wish he'd do one too because I'm with you. I've gotten frustrated and thrown away so many pieces of vinyl now screwing up on little fairing pieces. It was not the fancier expensive good vinyl though (3M?) so that could be part of why it's so hard too...
mate im going to try on my 1st time ever xtz tenere tank was going to try crome effect after watching you a pro im gonna bright yellow wish me luck thank you for showing me wot im in for
Awesome. I’m trying to do my Ducati Monster tank in one piece and already got into to trouble twice. Therefore running into my third try.😩 half to the tank looked great but end up with so much slack on the other half and could not fix. Probably did not stretched the vinyl enough in multiple directions.
Man a picture really is worth a 1000 words.
Never would’ve thought a gas tank would be more difficult but can see why
AKA The Mr Miyagi of wrapping. “Think only tree” 🧘♂️
I've watched probably all your videos. My first wrap was on my Indian Motorcycle... it came out pretty darn good. Only some minor basically unnoticeable imperfections, mostly glue lines.
im doing one now
and this is what hell feels like
That looks like a Honda CB750F tank. Nice job as usual.
CK the vinyl man...This guy has the patience of a priest...Good lord, Stress, max on overload just watching..This guy is from planet viny...lol
@11:54 Finally a video that looks like when I wrap something :D :D
This wins comment of the month 😂 😂
the title is a little off, Impossible? nothing is impossible with this guy! so amazing work, you really inspire me, sir.
I'm currently trying to learn your way of vinyl thru watching your videos and I'm really learning a lot! Thank you!
Great job. That brushed aluminum looks amazing and especially because it's a wrap! 😍👍👍
Looked rough to do but damn it turned out badass. Great video man.
I own a sign company in Florida we do wraps also and I just want to say that was very impressive
Sir do u like to help me I m from Pakistan. I want get wrap job with u. I do wrap in pakistan
What part of Florida?
I am in the process of doing my first vinyl wrap on my 2007 eclipse. I have done the hood and both front quarter panels. In scared to do the rest 😂. But your videos give me confidence and key bits of advice to do it. I'm not looking forward to the front bumper. At all .
Nice Job!!!
Been waiting on this👍
I tried wrapping a tank today after watching your first one-piece tank wrap vid and failed miserably. I was using some cheap 3m which would crease everywhere, and it had nowhere near the stretch that the vinyl you’re using - what is it? I was going to try it again anyways , but this vid is perfect timing! Thanks for the great content!
Hi, you did really a great job - im absolutely impressed ! Is it the "brushed steel" or "brushed titanium" film you used ? thx for an answer
What up Chris, is like to see you wrap a 4 wheeler.
I have an 08 grizzly that is like to wrap myself so I searched it and though there are a few on UA-cam I'd much rather see you do it.
Outstanding!! So good, I looked up your business for some work. Canada? May as well be on Mars!! Hahaha
Amazing job as always! Makes me want to try a tank wrap.
Two people doing it is hard already, seeing you doing it alone look so easy lol.
Thanks for the great video. Would have loved to see how you finished the trimmed edges off, especially since your fingers had been touching the edge vinyl throughout the wrap process. My first wrap experience was a small panel from the side of a Ducati Scrambler gas tank, while the panel was off of the tank. The most difficult part was keeping the metal panel from moving around. I managed it, but it took about an hour per panel, and the perfectionist in me, says it's better than the original look, but the panels could look a little better for sure, so a future wrap will be done as well. can you suggest a good matte black vinyl to purchase, the one I used was off of ebay.
Been trying to find someone in Lincolnshire to do my tank but there just isn't anyone so looks like I'm going to try myself so binge watching vids lol
Hey Christian.
Very nice job on this motorcycle gastank. Ik looks like it is more difficult and far more harder work for you like wrapping a car, but you can be proud on the result.
Would love to see a picture when it is completly done
Greetings from Belgium

I was attempting to wrap my motorcycle tank in matt black i messed up the first time watching this video and going for round two
Wow you sure have a lot of patience but the end results was perfect
Good job
I did my entire bike and I did the tank. I was very impressed with my tank until I got to one of my sides and I had a lot of extra wrap and I could shrink it any more. I did my tank 3times. The 1st time it took me 10hrs. The 3rd time about 45mins but every time I have extra vinyl. I use 3M. I'm not giving up and I'm trying it again with another wrap.
Great video thanks for doing this one as I'm looking to do my Harley satin chrome red during the winter.
BEAST!!!
Yo ..CK. ( I happen to have the same initial, !l anyways. It's not perfect in every single scenario, but you have think outside of the " Auto" wrap, and more into plastic thermal forming... for bikes. Vaccuum forming. You can't vaccum form a car. But you can vacuum form bike parts. ( I'm already on it, on a cheap scale.) It`s not patenting pending. Just add heat and SUCTION!) MUCH LOVE! At best, get a full tank, at worst, get a half tank, on its side ! :)
10 minutes Full bike tank
