to stop the steel tie from loosening a bit, as you pull it htrough push the ball bearing into the housing, this stops it slackening off a couple of MM, best way to wrap is to overlap 50% and this will give a consistant double thickness from start to finish, no highs and no troughs, when finished run engine and when dry coat with silicon spray. . .

So... i have a 400hp MONSTER size turbo diesel in a 40' Mainship 25k#. I am getting ZERO boost. The old guy i got it from replaced the 160hp engine. This engine came with dry exhaust manifolds. He put on wet manifolds. My knowledge of engine physics tells me he is sucking all of the heat out of the exhaust charge and the turbo (while spinning freely) isnt spooling up. The marine "rules" say you must have a wet exhaust manifold. My solution is to use the double wall (wet manifild with no water) and wrap it to achive roughly the same thermal result.... and finally get some power and fuel economy. I will probably use mig wire tails as extra ties when i run out of the 10 included with the 50' of wrap. Any thoughts anybody?
Kool stacks! You were wearing a long sleeve shirt for protection, yet shorts & sandals? Did any fibers make their way to your lower extremities? Gravity would make loose fibers eventually float downward, no?
My first time doing that. I didn't know it was supposed to be wet. It makes sense. And I gave those metal zip ties to a friend. I used bailing wire. Much easier to work with and I tied one about every 3". I think it'll hold up. Even if it's put on dry. Or should i remove it and start over???
Uhhhh, what if I forgot to soak it in water/ damp it.. ? I already sprayed it two coats now I’m waiting for it to dry/ looking up vids in general again and now I see you had to damp it- I didn’t..
I fibreglass for 25 years and all the it makes you itch comments are hilarious. The sun was beaming down so I used my turbo blanket as a hat and wrap as a scarf.
Dude so i have a diesel generator what i changed the exhaust on from going out the top stack like to going underneath (its mounted on a trailer now) and this video is a very well put together video! Its my 1st time ever wrapping something and will jot be seen except by me for maintence Thanks for the Great content!!! that bus look awesome to!
It’s the edges of either side. I’ve purchased two different types of wrap now & You can see a difference. One side looks a bit more neat, this is the side that should be exposed.
It was wet when installed, so the fibers weren’t really in the air. Would always recommend to use all the safety precautions you have available to you! Breathing that stuff in (when sanding or handling dry for example) is not healthy 👎🏼
We currently live in the south, so we normally don’t get snow. Since we don’t get snow, the exhaust wrap has not been exposed to salt. We got to below freezing temperatures for the first time in many many years in 2020 and they are still holding up well and looking good.
I’m a sixty your old woman and I look to get my 95 dodge ram 1500 exhaust wrapped and was thinking to do it myself …. Well my skin is sensitive so I won’t be doing it.😂 You did a wonderful job wrapping so I don’t know where to go and how much it would cost. Thx
wat you could do that doesnt look too mush like a heatshield is put a pipe cut in half length wise over the wrap and fix it to the pipe with hoseclamps , i think if you rake sumting along the pipes or bump intoo them it will damage the wrapping , having it exposed to the sun prolly whont do it any favors either and have the black turning intoo grey or white , the "shields" over them should prevent most of that , could paint the shields in either the exhaust blue or in the bus blue / black too could have a set of custom shields made somewhere with a cnc plasmacutter / waterjet and have the name of the channel or bus cut intoo them before rolling them halfround or use a brake to give them a multi angle just thought of sumting weird : if you ever decide to have a patio next to the bus under an awning with a propane bottle style wood burning stove you could make a hookup for the stove intoo the same exhaust pipe (hidden behind the shield ) and not have to worrie bout smoke blowing intoo the bus
We’ve had the wrap on for some time now and still looks fine after being out in the sun. The wrap is just a very simple solution to prevent anyone from burning themselves and has worked out great 👍🏼 We didn’t wish to go through any extra set up as this simple wrap does the job we wanted
That’s okay! This exhaust doesn’t get hot enough to burn skin but we wanted to make sure our nieces and nephews were safe. We also didn’t want to give DOT a reason to give us a ticket!
Great video, thank you..
Would never have known about wetting strap first.
Thanks for watching!
The best video on youtube for the subject. And then there was the cool-bus at the end for a suprise.
Thanks for the love 💚💜💛

Nice tips, didn’t even think of spraying it with something to protect it. Thanks for watching!
There's a proper crimp tool for the steel straps also a "sealer spray" for the wrap.never used it myself.... 👍
Great job,
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed the video!
@@parishskoolie i done a job on my trike exhaust after seen your clip probably didn't turn out as good as yours but thank you for the information,,,
Awesome, I had an easy job! The curve on my dirt bikes haven’t turned out as great.
4:20 I watch to much Tim Heidecker for that tune to hit home

Exhaust wrap is actually immune to gravity.
Thanks for the help explaining to me how to wrap my pipe... 😉🤣
Glad to help!
Ain’t no way he used the Stickman sniper theme song 💀

Nice job. I'm doing my motorcycle today and will use some of your tips.
Peace.
So happy to hear the video was helpful, Eric! Hope the motorcycle wrap went well. We had it easy with the straight pipe 😄
Uhhhh, what if I forgot to soak it in water/ damp it.. ? I already sprayed it two coats now I’m waiting for it to dry/ looking up vids in general again and now I see you had to damp it- I didn’t..
I understand now- I’m at 3:33 in the vid. I should have to keep it tighter. Well we’ll see when it sets I guess lol
You’ll be alright!
A great help, I wouldn't have wet it but see the sense in doing it . Thanks
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching 💙
My exhaust wrap smoking when are turn the engine???
My dirtbike did it, this application didn’t. The dirtbike gets near 1k degrees and this bus barely gets 300 degrees.
I fibreglass for 25 years and all the it makes you itch comments are hilarious. The sun was beaming down so I used my turbo blanket as a hat and wrap as a scarf.
Solid advice gonna be wrapping mine soon
I’m glad you found this helpful! Let us know how it turns out for you!
Amber should be wearing long pants on a motorcycle
Yeah, you’re probably right
I like the way you do your metal ties.... Tricky little things.... Good video.!
Thanks buddy! They sure are
NOW THIS is a good video!! F***YEAH
Thanks man!!!
Mi duda era como ajustar los sinchos pero eso de mojar el rollo para que no resbale es un gran consejo ... Excelente video
Thanks for watching😁

Thanks so much! Appreciate the view & comment!
I love diesel generators😁
Best dam rapper I've ever heard of.
Gang gang
Water allows it to become more “flexible”
Yeah! You’re right
this helped me alot i was struggling at first but after i watched this it helped me a lot lol but thank you for your advice man
Glad it served you well🫡
Amber's fault for getting burned that burn was on the outside part of her leg
Haha, gotta learn! She’s a beginner rider, this is her first bike. CRF 230m Supermoto!
Wait the wrap is directional now? I have never heard that only one side is the face-down side?
It’s the edges of either side. I’ve purchased two different types of wrap now & You can see a difference. One side looks a bit more neat, this is the side that should be exposed.
Wrapping my intercooler tubing on my 7.3, thanks for the help
Glad to help! Best of luck.
@@parishskoolie actually just finished a couple hours ago, your advice was great
Awesome✌️
Thanks 🤗
Thank you sir!!
Thank you!!
About to wrap something cheers for the help on how 👍🏼
So glad this video could help! Let us know how it turns out 🙂
is it ok to breathe in all that fiberglass?
It was wet when installed, so the fibers weren’t really in the air. Would always recommend to use all the safety precautions you have available to you! Breathing that stuff in (when sanding or handling dry for example) is not healthy 👎🏼
WTF
Thank you for the tips
No problem! Thanks for watching. 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Very nice on the ties
Thanks! A trick I’ve used a lot since this video🥰
Fantastic
Thank you so much Chris 😀
looks good nice job!!
Thanks so much! 🥰
Great vid!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed
Looks good man thanks for the video!
How does the wrap hold up to winter weather?
We currently live in the south, so we normally don’t get snow. Since we don’t get snow, the exhaust wrap has not been exposed to salt. We got to below freezing temperatures for the first time in many many years in 2020 and they are still holding up well and looking good.
I’m a sixty your old woman and I look to get my 95 dodge ram 1500 exhaust wrapped and was thinking to do it myself …. Well my skin is sensitive so I won’t be doing it.😂
You did a wonderful job wrapping so I don’t know where to go and how much it would cost. Thx
GLOVES ???
We believe in you! 💛💚💜 It’s all about the PPE
Nice video! How long do you soak the roll?
Not that long, maybe half an hour. I just waited till the bubbles stopped and the wrap was soaked!
wat you could do that doesnt look too mush like a heatshield is put a pipe cut in half length wise over the wrap and fix it to the pipe with hoseclamps , i think if you rake sumting along the pipes or bump intoo them it will damage the wrapping , having it exposed to the sun prolly whont do it any favors either and have the black turning intoo grey or white , the "shields" over them should prevent most of that , could paint the shields in either the exhaust blue or in the bus blue / black too
could have a set of custom shields made somewhere with a cnc plasmacutter / waterjet and have the name of the channel or bus cut intoo them before rolling them halfround or use a brake to give them a multi angle
just thought of sumting weird : if you ever decide to have a patio next to the bus under an awning with a propane bottle style wood burning stove you could make a hookup for the stove intoo the same exhaust pipe (hidden behind the shield ) and not have to worrie bout smoke blowing intoo the bus
We’ve had the wrap on for some time now and still looks fine after being out in the sun. The wrap is just a very simple solution to prevent anyone from burning themselves and has worked out great 👍🏼 We didn’t wish to go through any extra set up as this simple wrap does the job we wanted
I don’t think we will do a wood burning stove. Unique idea though!
Sorry but that looks goofy and unessasary... I don't get it
That’s okay! This exhaust doesn’t get hot enough to burn skin but we wanted to make sure our nieces and nephews were safe. We also didn’t want to give DOT a reason to give us a ticket!
