hey CK where do you buy your vinyl? i'm trying to wrap my car so i wanted to where should i go to buy the good one, any websites. thank you man and good job.i want to do my mirror soon
Fast forward eight years, you are now able to do it in one piece. You have come such a long way. I still suck, but you are almost God level.
So I have to say. After practice and practice I've started wrapping my car and my girls. And with alot of practice and re watching your videos a million times. I've been super happy with it. Thanks for the great videos bubba !
Always make sure to cut out a breathing hole when wrapping your girls though, i forgot one time and when i returned it was NOT pretty..
I think I watched this 10 times while I wrapped me mirrors!
First minute in to this I thought this guy was a clown. After he started in with the heat gun he really knows his vinyl.... Great video!
bullshit ...still a clown...overstretched... to much heat ... when in cold weather gone shrink
Gilberto Francisco haha do you know who this guy is? clearly not
@@TheBooze13 i know now who this guy is ... seen most videos of the guy and he is a pro ... in 2014 ... he was a clown ... but then he learned and now is the best
... by the way ...he was cooler then ...now with all the tattoos we looks more a punk ... even the hair was greater then in 2014 :D
@@gafrancisco it's going to shrink cause of cold weathe?...but heat is what makes it shrink back into place so you sound like a clown actually.
@@gafrancisco we are here to watch a video about wrapping a mirror not how a guy looks like. Are you gay? I dont care how this guy looks like. Probably you do.
The dude had the skill from way back then! Nice work!
love the job you did.
for me as a beginner, it's well explained and it helped me a lot :)
keep doing those videos :D
really nice explanation about everything through the entire process, i did not lack any intel.
usually, i don't comment, but this had me done ;) nice tutorial!
Shoutout to Mama as the videographer! Solid video, ordering my vinyl today!
and the felt tip squeegee!
Wow I watched the entire video with ease. BEST DIY vinyl wrap I've watched bro! Good job, lol looks awesome.
+JediMasterJF thank you, check out some of our other ones which are more advanced
Greatly appreciated for you taking the time to talk about the steps and few extra tips, I'll be wrpping the interior of my e90 cheers from California
Despite all the hate I see in the comments, I think you did great and it looks awesome
Thanks dude, as I mentioned in the video this isn't something that should be done outside or in the wind. I'm just merely demonstrating how to do it. The environment you choose is your choice
Vinyl Solutions Exactly, people just need to chill out
Thanks for the tips i am in the process of doing my mirrors i was having draw back from the vinyl now I understand what needs to happen
I just got the same wrap TODAY from amazon, and looking to wrap my black mirrors also. Glad I subscribed PERFECT TIMING for this to come up for me, THANKS!
I don't know about the highly trained professional, but for the average dIY'er - these are some helpful hints. Something to go by... Thanks for sharing!
Props on the Movada Watch. Clean & nice deatiled work! TY
Thank God for UA-cam I was trying to replace my new cap with the imitation carbon fiber cap I'll take my time and do this
Nice movado you got there. Thanks for the video!
Hi ck wraps. I had ago doing my wife Fiat 500 wing mirrors. I made a right cock up. I tried to taking things slowly but the vinyl wasn't big enough. After watching your video I'm going to have another go. Many thx mate.
Cheers from the UK
Wing mirrors are old school, 1950/60s
I really appreciate all your videos. I am wanting to do a space theme wrap on my car and am making this a project to keep me busy. These are awesome!
I'm actually surpisred, it's such a good video, great explaining. Thanks!
Top-notch every time CK...and this guy is actually on the Vvivid how to page...so he knows his $hit!! A true master at his craft!
Hi, Vinyl Solutions, you did so great on this video the carbon fiber your video is really helpful and we all appreciate your effort to teach us.
thanks a lot and keep doing great videos like this.
Brooo you have showed me and told me things i so far have not seen on most other wrap videos. The stretch n heat before you wrap i have a way more u derstanding of it now. Awesome video. Perfect wrap and outside. Im pumped cant wait to do this better than i did.
I think this was a good video, this was pretty handy for people who wants to try wrapping on their own, I enjoyed it, I'll try this during the summer rather than pay some $160 to do it.
Thanks for sharing your car wrap knowledge...its helped me out alot..keep the videos coming..
Damn bro. You've come along way. Love your channel.
Awesome, thanks for the video!!
The best wrap channel there is!
Nice job. I'm going to wrap my side mirror. I will follow the steps what i saw in the video. Hope it's will work perfectly.
You make it look so easy... how do I avoid creases and bunching on curved surfaces?
Your videos are great, you explain things the same way I would when showing a layman a new skill.
Heat gun and relief cuts at angles worked for me. I just did bottom of a spoiler that i had to work 3 different angles on a surface..wasnt easy. Lots of heat and cutting to work it in
He does make it look easy. I finished my roof today and it came out awful. 😂
Thank for sharing bro. I been think on wrapping mines CF too but I though it would be to difficult. Now I have an idea how to. Can you do the front bumper. I want to do the middle part instead of painting it like everyone else. Thanks again.
I tired doing my mirror and it went pretty well but I had a lot of wrinkles around half the mirror, for a first attempt it wasn't bad but I wasn't happy with it and pulled it off, I think I need to prestretch like you showed and it would be perfect
Your a pro. Nice video!
Kudro Rico The mirrors hadn't been done on this car yet so it wasn't a re-wrap. This eclipse belongs to a friend of mine who I sponsored with a full wrap. As for brand, I prefer to stay away from 3m. I find it's hard to work with and very over priced. Their carbon fiber also isn't as nice as Vvivid Vinyl, I only use carbon fiber from Vvivid Vinyl. I would recommend using Avery Dennison if you're a beginner. Avery is very easy to use and also more cost effective, I consider Avery to be the Rolls Royce of vinyl brands.
can u do a video on how to wrap the front end pls :-D
CK Wraps what do think about orafol/oracal 970?

Nice!! Thanks for the vid. It helps me a lot for DIY.
I did a part of my interior and the edges and round parts are coming up after 1 day, was the result because i used a hairdryer vs a heat gun, or i need the 9m adhesive promoter stuff?
He made it look so easy. It looked great to me. For those who had an issue with his style of wrapping. What did he do wrong? I read someone said over stretched the vinyl?
Clean, nice & detailed work! TY
it looks so easy when you are doing it, I think it is great job, will try myself, but start with something easier first, more flat :)
T
Good video! I'm planning on doing the mirrors on mg car but they have the integrated turning signals. Any tips?
Great video, very helpful.
Another tip opening your driver window might help you work better angles
That looks like enough vinyl to do both mirror caps. Could you have cut it in half before stretching, and saved a little money?
good work for me,it has really taken me somewhere
Well documented,enjoyed watching.
What kind of prep would you do to a plastic mirror before you wrap it?
This wizardry that you show us has inspired me to try this on my Mustang👍
Hi Chris
I’m getting ready to do a carbon fiber wrap on my motorcycle gas tank. It doesn’t have any hard edges. Pretty much a teardrop shape. Should I pre stretch like you did on this mirror. By the way this will be my first attempt at wrapping. It’s Avery SW900
For those that want legal dark window tint, "No officer, it's not tint. It a wrap!"
in your professional opinion...what would be the best way to prep cracked interior trim before wrapping with this product?
I can't see the fail in something that actually came out good.
how is wrap resistant on the sun?
You can tell this guy is a nice guy
hi there. how much wrap do you think you needed for both mirrors
Black streak on corner from stretching.. used the same material last week and got the same mark. Lifting up the vinyl to get wrinkles out cause it
Very nice work man , i like your word u say ( you are not superman ,,,, you cant do this on one more try , no body can ) Very true .
Thank you, plan on wrapping the black pieces that hold my mirror all the paint has chipped off thanks
To wrap my spoiler & my side View mirrors can you suggest where to purchase the squeegee and what size I should get, Do you suggest 3-D, 4d, 7d ? ,, What is the best rap to buy for outside the car? Any hints what brands are the best quality? Thank you for the video I’m sure it will help when I do this project. Steve
I like the pre-heating and stretching but I think I would have fixed the free end to a plastic rod or tube first to give an even stretch and remove the risk of it flapping back on its self in the wind.
Good job brother.
Great job CK
that will hold perfectly for a few months. well done !
+Dronismo 3 years later and it's still perfect
Hello your video is perfekt but can i know why my vinyl in 1 Week on the sides it is detached
i musst to do more with the phone? or what
Thank you very much :)
Great demo
works and looks wonderful
Tell me about your heat gun. Can I use a blow dryer or if I get a heat gun what temp do I need?
Hi Christian oh, great videos, I have a question about how you would wrap a mirror if it did not have a removable cap. Would you wrap around all the edges that go into the mirror or would you use knifeless tape and stop of going around the edge, thanks
Bro you sound like matt Damon. Love ur video g.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge
Good work man grtz from europ
is it better to wrap on the car or take the part of the mirror that we want to wrap out?
Great tutorial.....thanks for sharing your skills
Great video.... Thanks...
How many feet of vinyl wrap is needed to wrap a 350z spoiler like the Vader 3?
Always a great job Ck
That came out sick dude, thanks for the explanation
If se dont have a gauge is hotter better or will it over heat
Thanks man, I learned a lot.
Nice...Thanks!
So you're going to stretch a patterned vinyl with heat and then shrink vinyl with heat. What part of that makes sense?
Looks good 👍
I wasted about 7 pieces of vinyl and rage quit before looking up this video! so helpfull, i was using too small of a piece each time and not pre heating. going to give it a go now. 🤞
How'd it go?
Did it work this time?
nice.....thanks brother...
Is there a reason you pre-heated? Because it looked a little bit deformed if I'm not mistaken.
I guess overall it looks okay
He explained why as he was doing it.
thank you so much for all your tips.. its help me so much... btw im from malaysia.....
How do you get the wrap to form so well? I tried doing my mirrors, but the vinyl just didn't like going around the curves. I'll get the face of the mirror perfect, then all hell breaks loose at the edges. It either wouldn't stick, or it would wrinkle horribly no matter how much heat I use. Do I have to allow a short cooling period to allow the vinyl to harden before continuing?
Cody Miller what vinyl are you using? If it's Chinese, that'll be the problem
Thanks, great video, appreciate taking the time to explain the details! God bless!
You make this shit look so easy. Nice job brotha
Thanks for explaining everything not to do
Great video thanks for the help
carbon is hard to work with because of the pattern, you did an alright job. Pretty sure you can do it in one piece, but who cares if it's 3 pieces. The car isnt being judged and winning 1 piece vinyl awards.
So Im no tthe only one who thought It did look like he could have done it in 1 piece
Thank you very much.
I almost everyday watching your video.
Can I ask you one thing?
Grand cherokee side mirror, Can I do this?
Grand cherokee site mirror is so difficult to me T T
Thank you very much for your share smart.
Hello.. What do I do when I stay under vinyl bubbles
a) re-wrap if it is like a small piece
b) puncture the bubble with a needle, apply heat an press until the bubble and the puncture are gone
c) lift the piece and re-apply
These are individual options, not a general instructive
hey man really like your videos quastion whee did u get they carbon fiber from i like how shine glossy they are thanks
Vvivid vinyl makes this particular carbon fiber called True R carbon fiber
+CK Wraps I think you did a great job.Eveyone has thier own way of doing things that work for them, i can vouch for that. i do it my way that works for me. not how it works for someone else.Once someone finds that one way , they will get faster at it and better every job..Good work Bud.
is this brand pretty good vinyl ? i do decals etc and havent done my mirrors yet on my 2014 toyota corolla s Premium, but i have heard of Vvivid ,i just wasnt sure what the life span of it was compaired to Oracal/Orafil i use for everything i do...Just got into this last year and love the vinyl work..Heres my website pippinphotography and Pippin Decals on facebook and see what ive done .Theres much more i havent posted but its just basic things. I do alot of 4x4 groups. construction companies and personal decals all non printed. Hope you like ..
What Carbon did you used 3D
I would love to see you wrap a Pontiac GTO Ram Air hood would that be a difficult turn to rap
I had no idea about post heating
Can you tell me who makes the galaxy wrap, and where to find it? Thank you
Usually it's a custom print
pretty rough start but good job in the finish
