- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 มี.ค. 2020
- I did a video like this a couple of years ago but it wasn't into great detail. This video goes into much more detail about how and what to charge for a vinyl wrap. This video is intended mostly for installers but will also help consumers when they question what to charge or pay for the work. I'll walk you through 5 detailed points which make up my price range for car wraps, other wraps or any other type of business for that matter.

I love how you make these videos that other content creators don't in regards to pricing etc.
This is a really difficult part of anyone wishing to start their own business/side hustle. Not knowing prices or how to price a job.
You're a badass CK.
“Stay home and wrap something!” So great man. Stay safe and keep them coming.
I feel like you read my mind. Thank you for being generous with your experience and wisdom. You get that sharing still leaves many people who would never attempt. Others think there gonna loose customers and thats not the case
Man I needed this. I just started wrapping an e46 m3 in hexis purple chrome. That material is seriously hard to work with, but that's what the customer wanted.
Man! This is such a great and knowledgeable and informative video. Thank you for doing this videos for people like me and my friend who’s leaning forward to this industry. Like you said we are very lucky to have videos to watch and not just figure it out ourselves! Please continue making videos. God bless you and more blessings to come! Congratulations to your new shop! P.S we are on the process of wrapping my friend’s camaro using avery’s satin flip psychedelic and we already spent more than 24hrs doin it and we still need to wrap the front panel, front bumper and roof but so far we loving it. Not perfect when it comes to cutting but we getting there! It’s our first time.
I just want to thank you for your videos and tutorials. I haven’t wrapped in years and had a job this morning to wrap a roof on a Mercedes C class and because of your explanations and videos I had a great time doing it. thank you! 🙏🙏💯
Hi Christian!
Greetings from Germany
I started wrapping about this time last year with your videos to guide me.
I used to dismantle parts of my car and wrap them in my kitchen. I wasted so much material trying to learn on my friends cars.
I was so ashamed when first customers called me, saying that the wrap is coming of.
Now things are good.
I want to thank you for making these videos (the way you make them). They were always there whenever I was in doubt .
Always Super helpful with all your videos!! I love this content especially because you break down each variable on how much to charge for a wrap.
awesome instructional speech, now i feel like trying to go and wrap something on my car, you make it sound so easy, funny and cool to do wraps
The detail you provide is amazing! Thank you so much for these awesome videos!👍
Hell yeah ! Quality TH-cam video(s). None of that wasting hours and days on pointless videos. These are the kind of videos this mega platform should be used for. Good job, keep it up.
A great video. I'm sure many will appreciate it.
This is a great video for you and for your customers to watch to kinda learn both sides of what’s going on. 💯🎯
Love these videos... Very helpful and informative...
Always great information. Thank you
Just what I needed to know. Thank you sir.
Thanks for the lesson Christian!
great teachings like always, thank you.
Thanks for sharing this, great video! I give a lower price when it's ok to cut the vinyl and expose a thin line of the background paint where a recess is on commercial vehicles etc. Which I know is not as critical as the jobs you do.
Thank you so much ck, I’ve learned everything I know from your free videos & I just made my 1st 5k in 2 weeks wrapping 2 cars
This is a really good big brother talk about business thanks man
Thank you for the knowledge 💯🙏🏽
I do mechanic work, everything from passenger vehicles to mining equipment. When I give an estimate I do a high-low, so a minimum and maximum of total cost for the work done. One thing I do that most don't is a variable rate dependent on the income of the client. Some people can't afford much but need a running vehicle. I don't make as much on the lower end jobs but I really enjoy helping people. I do not warranty part failure but if it's a failure because of something I did it's repaired for free.
David Whitten that’s also a way for people to get more work for you and also return to you in the future...props my dude.
David Whitten Min/max is the way to go. All my favorite suppliers/services do that. 👍
“Variable rate dependent on the income of the client?” I’m assuming you mean you give people a break if they are in a tight spot. Otherwise, that statement sounds really problematic for me as a customer.
Also, that brings into question your remark about the high-low estimate. That could be appreciated if you haven’t diagnosed it yet, but if you have, it could come across as letting a customer pay for your uncertainty.
Excellent video, Christian.
Great video very insightful ✊🏿
man i love your channel good work man!
i loves your ⚒ work im from morroco good job bro keep going! 😀
Your so right about learning!!! Before making money!
Thank you for breaking this down
You should do a video on suede wrap or leather wrap for interior pieces. Would greatly appreciate it 🙌
Hey man love your videos! Keep up the good work. Can you try doing a 2017+ honda CRV? The tail lights are super aggressive to wrap and I was interested in trying it myself. Thanks!
Hey Chris, thanks for sharing your invaluable information. Not many people out there being as transparent as you are - so thank you! Question, I see you're in Ottawa, and I'm going to be picking up a brand new ride from the dealership soon, and want to drive it straight into a wrap shop (to avoid any finish damage) - BUT, I live in Toronto. Could you recommend any wrappers as honest as you are in the GTA?
Any insight is appreciated! Thanks :)
Awesome video
Cool man I love the content👌💥
Thank you for ant tips of wrapping a car sir..godbless you
Im in the UK. I got quoted £2500 for a wrap on my BMW F30 in the new Inozetek Mamba Green. I think that works out at just over $3000 in the US.
How would you, C.K wrap the recess for rear lic. plate on a Boxster 986? With or without inlays/separate parts? Or just with heat and streching?
I love ur channel ❤️❤️❤️❤️
THANKS!
20:07 What is your go to Gloss back brand? just super curious.
Have you ever wrap a trans am hood?? I want to wrap mine
Do you have a video on how to do bumpers ?
Hey guys, can i buy any vinylwrap (anycolour) and have it laminated? for a longer lasting look
how do you deal with projects that took you longer than estimated time like you needed the vehicle for another day or two how will you deal with it?
what is ur price for chrome delete around the windows only?
Hey Christian, what's the best way to reach out to you directly? I assume you work out of the shop in Vaughan? I'm exploring a fairly unique custom project idea, and would love to discuss what are realistic possibilities. I can come to the shop (and socially distance) if that is easiest too. Look forward to your response.
Thanks
So where do you buy wrap from?
superlike!
When I need ANSWERS, I listen to HIM! Sir, can you tell me how to put a PHOTO of my Granddaughter on my VViVid MATTE BLACK Warp, we did my Outboard Motor Warp, and now I would like to put her PHOTO on both side of the Cowl! Or is there a process that can copy her Picture into another piece of Vinyl? Or, put her picture on the matte Black Cowl, the cover it with 3M Clear ? Any help is like really appreciated! THANKS
Where can I find Satin White Gold Chrome vinyl wrap?!?!!?!! Please!
You're the best as you said stay home and wrap that's all I've been doing I'm in Australia and I have to be locked in for safety for this Corona anyway.. the point is all I do is wrap wrap and wrap quite enjoy it I'm having difficulties with gold Chrome at the moment from China.. I don't think it's vinyl wrap lol it won't curve it won't do anything you want it to do it's a test that's why I purchased it for next to nothing you pay for what you get in wrapping definitely 90% of the times I would say you're the teacher I'm not I'm guessing this video help me a lot so I think you if you want to see my WRAP City HQ on Instagram I suppose you can have a look nothing spectacular because I'm starting your the man that taught me a lot you have multiple videos but this video is a great video because it's one-on-one with the customer and reality is it's just not all wrap it's good customer service to if you talk professional look professional you wrap professional you'll get the job thanks Chris keep up the videos love your work
Ha safety
I do screen enclosures my minimum is 175 the customer is always understanding about it over the phone but when i get there to do 2 screen and im done before they can finish the have you live here long question i asked when i started they are like wtf but sometimes the call is a door kit replace some metal and a small screen witch is way longer so the minimum is good just wish the customer could see the jobs like that
where are guys located?
Mazda 3 Hatch - Roof Wrap Gloss Black -> what cost should I be looking at and what’s the difficulty at for that car? No shark fin. In the GTA
Did that on my 13 Mz3 hatch with sunroof. Did it myself, spent $80 on material
Avery gloss black easy film to work with in the world
Premium is rt. I am 42 with >25yrs experience. I know what happens 10yrs after install. 20yrs on some installs. My work lasts
I have a 2019 GMC Savana Cargo Van. How much would it cost to wrap it? Thank you
I've never wrapped anything. I drive a FedEx truck lol. BUT after binge watching half of these videos I now find myself looking at cars in traffic thinking to myself "Yeah, I could wrap that. I'd use an inlay there and there... a little heat and boom! Done" hahahahahaha as long as I never try, I'll never fail. (EDIT: This is because you make it look SO EASY)
I’m wrap bmw 520D after two weeks front bumper some place remove what the reason
You didn't prep right and some dirt was left
150$ per hour includes preparation time too? Or just wrapping time?
Austere Graunt he explained that in the beginning
Have you ever had any issues wrapping over parking sensors?
Thanks for all of your content. I've used my 'stay at home' time to wrap my entire subaru thanks to your winsdom, but the parking sensors in my rear bumper think there's something behind it when there's not. The only thing I can think of is that I wrapped over the parking sensors. Do I need to wrap them separately? Or is there no way to wrap them and not have this problem. Thanks.
I want to wrap my car but I'm still scared too. How much wrapping experience do you have?
Hi Chris, I am an inventor of whatever I have issues with and I'll just make something up most of the time it works, I made a heat gun holster, and I wanted to send it to you, how can I send that to you?
Hi Marvin, I've never tried a heat gun holster before. If you'd like to reach out to us you can email nav@ckwraps.com and he'll look after you.
What about mobile independent installers like me that install for other shops but don't supply material. What should hourly rate be?
You get to make up whatever hourly you believe you deserve for the quality and type of work you do
@@CKWraps yeah ..pricing is like shooting from the hip in the Installer community. I make most of my money off fleet anyways. I do wrap quite a bit but I don't find it as profitable. IMO
@@tedlumley4470 You don't charge enough for your work if you don't find it as profitable.
Doing color changes is done partially for money and partially for the sheer pleasure of it. It isn't for everyone. If you want to just make money then there are many other options available. But if you strive for quality, excellence and meticulous dedication then color changes might be your thing
Is that $150 U.S. or Canadian?
CAD but it's relative to where you live
👍👍👍
Pro
I wouldn’t compare yourself to a car dealership dude. Car dealerships are all crooks. I doubt you are taking advantage of people like they do. You seem pretty transparent and honest. Just don’t think that’s the image you want in your customer’s heads.
loved everything except the promotion of the phoney croney CK :(
So I’m gonna pay you more but you never went to school to wrap. Wraping takes no skills
Skill-less like post man
This fool definitely on the high side you can get a full wrap for 2000$ with material in Southern California dont know where he at and dont care lol....
Toronto, Canada, which is more expensive than Southern Cali!
He is talking about running a business, not paying illegals under the table.
You called him a fool for what reason?
@RRY PHILL hes from socal, some people use fool like people use dude
