Very helpful tips thank you. I'm wrapping my own shit. These shops are out of control with their vinyl wraps. I'm a mechanic I do all my own work including the electronics and tuning. I'll learn this also, why not. Another skill added to my existing skill set 👌
@Trever Collins I don't have as much experience as you guys and I'm also only 20 however I'm going to be wrapping my truck soon and I can't wait to learn how to wrap properly!
@@trevercollins6910 did everything on my car, air, tint, bash bars… you name it. Hoping to do this as well. Good luck to you man, in the same boat sitting at 20 years old myself.
Prices have gone insane recently, all of the old videos I’ve found say the high end wraps used to go for around $2500, like on what planet?!? I’ve gotten two quotes for a solid color wrap, $3750 and $4500. And it’s on a sedan!
BRO ONG the place I went didn’t just say only THAT but the mfker tried to get me to believe this was a WEEK PROCESS, he said he was gonna have to hold my car for a week in order to wrap it 😂😂😂😂😂bro im so happy im willing to learn things on my own bc WHAT A RIP OFF !! This is literally Art Class 101 we’re just stretching and flattening
Good video, I've just wrapped some car parts for the first time, my tip is this, don't try to get it perfect first time, you can heat and reheat forever to take ripples and blisters out, make sure no dust is on the surface as IT WILL look shite when finished, start off on a simple part to get the hang of it, a square shape maybe and keep the multi angled odd shaped things like door mirrors to last, the centre console will have some good areas to start you off. I did the internal door handles from a Citroën C3, and they were not easy but after 30 minutes both were looking like they just come out of the Citroën factory, buy more wrap than you need as it's very wasteful wrapping small items, I didn't have a heat gun, so I used a very small hot air heater, on the hottest setting it did the job well, suppose a hair-dryer would also do the job,
Yep, keeping it clean should be priority number one. everything else can be fixed, but if you start with a less-than-spotless car and greasy hands trying to wrap inside a dusty barn, you’re not gonna be happy with the results 😂
Get it clean, keep it clean. Clean your garage floor, clean your hands, clean your tools, change your clothes to something that’s snug fitting and not going to leave lint or pet hairs all over.
I work for a dealership that owns a body shop. My new car(got it used) has some bad paint areas. Even with my discount, it was still nearly 2.5k to get the paint fixed. Am I about to wrap the roof of my car? Yes, yes I am. Will I be patching the paint on my own? yes, yes I will.
Anyone else notice when hes laying tape on the box and explaining to keep the tape tight to the piece, when he stops an you look it's not stuck to it all the way :P most of us know what hes talking about, great video found it super helpful! Just wanted to point it out if nobody noticed it lol
I live in Nevada, is it worth to wrap a car when it gets to be 120° air temp? Car panels get very hot out here. Would my work just get ruined in a summer?
Same boat.. even if it takes a couple times and more material for hands on.. putting another check in the skillset box is huge. I agree.. hourly fee's for anything is ridiculous these days.
Hey quick question to anyone who has a wrap company… do you guys fix imperfections in a car or can you, if you do does it increase the price, for my case I don’t care about the paint but it’s just pealing I don’t want it that to show do you guys also sand it down?
Typically wrap shops will outsource to get imperfections fixed if requested but it definitely does depend on who/what shop you go to. Your best bet is to call around and see what the wrap shops around you say about it. You will definitely end up paying more either way to get it fixed though.
Thanks, very helpfull! How many meters of vinyl do you need for a car and how much does only the vinyl cost for one car? I'm looking to wrap my Albar Sonic and could use some guidance and tips
I just came to see what vinyl wrap is..heard it in a post apocalypse audio book..lol reminds me of the shrink window kits you get for winterizing a window, you shrink it with a hair dryer. Interesting though. Many yrs ago this old lady used to help her husband with body work and priming, never painted though. Other than toxic chemicals why wrap?
I have been doing Fully adhered roofs for 10 years now and I heat weld seams with a heat gun daily, alot of what I do requires heating and stretching tpo and pvc roofing materials, I bet I would do great at this.... fuck it I'm doing my acura rsx
My problem is rounded sections and bug areas like the hood, and also doing it by myself. I couldn't even tint my tail lights without bubbling and creases
Hair dryer will work. They are not as precise or fast, but they’re safer to use. as a heat gun is really easy to overdo and melt/burn stuff until you get used to them.
i did vicrez. most other "popular" online vynil places are ALWAYS out of the colors you want when you click on them. IT's like why do you show these colors if they're out of stock permanently? Seriously annoying
I want to do my wheelchair frame which is about 20 cm tubing. Obviously a squeegee would be no use because the flat edge wouldn't fit the curved tubing. Any suggestions?
@@TeamMD0 Pimp it, it's a beast. Six-inch wide tyres like they use on a golf truck on the rear, only inflated to 5 LB to give good suspension, and gleaming stainless steel rims. gleaming Moto bike wheels on the front. The spray job it is, prismatic universe. LED strobe lights on the rear plus spiral indicators. With LED headlights. It does 10 mile an hour. And the manoeuvrability, and precision steering after Reprogramming it, is insane. it has Anderson connection so I can use it to jumpstart cars, or run devices. It has special armrest that fold round, with Velcro attached to them so I can place the remote control, my mobileephone et cetera on them. Coin dispensers. USB connection to charge my phone. Little skull with red reflective eyes on the joystick. Backrest reclines. it will do wheelies and it regularly beats cars at the traffic lights over the 1st 10 feet LOL :p
i found some nice looking vinyls i want to put on my brothers car. It looks like shit and i got permission to do it. But so far i've seen vinyls on rolls, about 19/20 inch wide... can i still apply that without making it look bad?
Hi, I have a small part , a button about 1.5 Inches across and ROUND. Top looks fine but my sides are a mess all bunched and wrinkled. How do I fold down the sides so they are smooth. Help!
Pre-stretch the center as far as possible w/heat, and push the part into the “cave” you made in the wrap. Use heat again to get the film to “pull in” behind the part, then leave enough film behind to adhere so it doesn’t peel away.
Wouldn't. Go to harbor freight if you're doing one, buy a reputable tool if you're trying to be a reputable installer (although the spoon does not make the chef)
Someone keyed my vinyl wrap and that was free because my friend got time on his hands and wrapped my car a year ago. I’m tight budget and I can’t afford new paint on my car
I really want to wrap my car so bad! but I’m just scared I’m gonna mess it up. And I don’t wanna buy wrap for like $500 and then just remove it after one week cause it looks like shit
Take your time ! I just bought 600 bux worth of vynil at vicrez and can't wait to try my hand at it. Will let you know if it is doable after i do it, or wether it is best left to the pros... Wish me luck!
