That is awesome GREAT JOB taking that leap if you want to get a LATEX eco solvent Printer hit me up I have the deal of deals it will change the game for you
My first thoughts exactly. He has to have watched bob as a little kid? Maybe it’s just an instinctive cadence? I keep waiting for “happy little pre tuck lines” or “nasty old glue lines but that’s all right” “we’ve got our handy air release tool for that!”
I grew up in my family's custom street rod shop. Spent 15 years doing custom auto body/fabrication. In 1999 i bought a Roland sticka 15" vinyl cutter and began experimenting. I personally wrap like i paint and remove all emblems, trim, and body panels and wrap in my downdraft paint booth and never leave open edges. For me, the time spent de and re assembling is mostly offset by ease of wrapping. The heat lights in my booth gently and evenly bring the panels and vinyl up to temp without creating hotspots like heatguns do.
Man your like the Bob Ross of wrapping cars. I could watch and listen to you all day. You’ve got some serious skills, God given talent. Keep it up brother!
Very helpful video. I'm preparing to do my first wrap, but have been painting for years, and thought I'd add some painter tricks, because I haven't seen them mentioned in any wrap video. 1) Keep your work area clean, and wash your vehicle well BEFORE bringing it into the work area. 2)Wear clean, lint free clothes. You don't want your body to be a lint carrier. 3)Clean your tools before starting, so there isn't left over debris like trim pieces stuck to them. 4) Before applying, we use tack rags to wipe the surface (before painting). This picks up the small particles that could be left from the alcohol wipe. 4) If blowing off with compressed air, make sure you have a good filter on the compressor, or you'll get moisture coming out.
I’m a newbie . As a pro auto painter , what are the benefits of wrapping as opposed to just painting ? I KNOW that the prep is the main answer , but even a really good wrap job only lasts around 5 years , yes ? Curious .
@@lisacolbert5987easier to change colors, don't have to repaint because of some chips it either bounces off or worst case you re wrap a single panel vs all the time/$$$ to repaint.
HI brother. Thank you very much for your help. I am actually greeting you from Chile 🇨🇱, I am starting my own painting and wrapping company. And these tutorials are making my life way easier. So Thank you 😊
Bro, i could probably spend a solid Friday evening watching through a course on repairing socks or something with how rad you are as a host / instructor. It's always cool when someone is not only skilled in their craft but also has passion for it and not to mention knows how to communicate it in laymans terms. Super interesting stuff and god damn it - entartaining too. Mucho props.
I can watch this dude just as intently as any artist immersed in their craft. I have to mention that this has to be the Bob Ross of vinyl wrapping. His metallic flat black is like bobs vandyke brown, his squeegee liken to bobs paint knife, You can’t convince me otherwise.
You really are the master. I hope guys watching this are inspired by your care for your customer. You're instilling a work ethic in the next line of people coming up in this game to take pride in the details and pride in knowing that the customer might not ever see that little corner, but if they do, they won't be disappointed in your work.
Great work man, very informative and educational. You clearly explained the process and demonstrated the technique along the way. This is by far the best "how to" video on wrapping that I have seen, and gave me the beta to get after wrapping my truck.
Thank you so much for your videos!! I've watched about an hour a day of your videos for almost 2 months! Doing my first wrap in a week. Also signed up on your site. Huge help!
I can’t wait to start my first wrap soon.. and I am so thankful for your videos a tips before I made so many mistakes myself. Thank you, and keep doing what you do!
I’m taking a 10-Saturday course on wrapping and been sharing your videos with the other students. Just wanted to thank you for the putting in the work and time on these videos. The work ethic is unmatched and definitely doesn’t go unnoticed. Cheers from Baltimore 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
thanks to your channel i will be wrapping my 2nd gen Tacoma over 4th of July weekend, other channels make the process seem very complicated, you made it very easy to understand!
Hi Christian, Ive pretty much watched all your videos and you have been so so helpful in teaching me how to learn to wrap. I've been restoring and painting cars for over 30 years and you have given me a new direction to go. You have to be commended on your skills, to be able to carry out a wrap and spend the time teaching it out at the same time is a special gift especially when you put it in such an easy language that the layman can understand. Please keep them going (specially about corners I keep getting them wrong} your tutoring is priceless and your time is certainly not wasted doing it. Thank you.
I doubt I'll ever be able to afford a wrap on my car, but if I could I wouldn't want it done by anyone other than you. Your explanation, knowledge, and attention to detail are incredible.
I've been working with vinyl for years now and have a small vinyl graphics business but have never done a full wrap. Learning a lot from you. Thank you for what you do. Seriously. You are very good at what you do.
I like this method a lot better than what I was taught. I was shown to pull glass, work the recesses then the rest. The problem with that is sometimes you will get those bubbles and hard creases in the middle which causes you to pull half of the vinyl back up to get them out. Letting it float and working your way down looks so much better and easier to do.
Man, this is an incredible video. I've been watching videos on wrapping for like a week and I'm starting to think I can actually do this. I have a tacoma and z4 that could use it for protection and an old fading Honda fit.
I did one of these tailgates this morning. But it was a solvent commercial print. Kinda goopy. I started just below the Ford emblem. Everything fed in. No tension. Also when working the F150 indent, sometimes instead of a wrap glove you can wipe your thumb on your nose or forehead and get some grease for better feel and a decent slide.
Detailed narration of a super detailed process. You're always advocating for doing it 'right', and that is what makes the results awesome. Truly awesome work. 🙏🤘
Howdy. Thanks for that video. I was hoping you showed us how the left and right edge looked. I saw you make the cut with a little extra, but didn't see how much it wrapped around to the back side of the edge.
i want to wrap around my tail lights and head lights. First gen Raptor, If all goes well I will do my wife's 2005 Tahoe. Its mostly flat, thanks for doing some accents in the future. Thanks Art
Nicely done! I don’t know about Ford, but GM and Dodge truck tailgates can be easily removed. If I wrap my truck, then I might take the tailgate off, put it on sawhorses to work it all the way around the bottom edge. Of course, there might be value to the tailgate being rigid and not moving,
Omg you should see my work truck. When you say some ‘bad scratches’ and ‘indentation’ I can hardly notice after seeing my truck every day 😅❤ I watch thes vids amd consider wrapping my 94 Chevy pick up.. probably just a pipe dream 😊
Thanks for the video. I am almost ready to pull the trigger and try this myself. Maybe I will offer the neighbor kid a chance at my first wrap before tackling the Alfa Romeo.
For a DIYer that wants to wrap small projects like door handles, badges, etc what brand film/s would you recommend? Also i appreciate the time to detail you shown us. Exceptional work and craftsmanship 👍
I just bought an old civic because gas is outrageous and the paint it hideous! Quotes were crazy for wraps. Im about to do it myself this weekend now 🤘 THANK YOU
For electrical cables that like to unplug themselves under any pressure/tension prior to plugging both ends together tie the crossed over and under part (beginning) part of tying your shoe. The tighter the knot the better however if you tighten and it comes undone make it as tight prior to it unplugging. That still helps 10x as much and prevents it from unplugging easily. Best if you don't want to add wear to the pins in the male plug. Can only bend them so much b4 it breaks or causes problems. Life savor being 3 stories high on a roof when the cables connected around 1st story. LoL
I'd love to see more videos on things like inlays. How to know when you should use them, etc. Up close and personal on how they overlap, etc... Also, another door jamb video would be dope! Love your work dude!
Great video. I have 2 questions. If you leave the scratches with a void underneath won't it have trapped air. The only way I could interpret the dent to be removed is with the material bridging the gap and you wouldn't be able to release or press down with the instruments used in this video. Second question is if I were to repair a big hole and say fiberglass and or bondo it. Is there a certain type of finishing spray to coat it so the wrap will stick or do I have to coat it in paint several times?
Great video. I'm thinking of trying to wrap my own car, after I watch a # of different videos. You did a great job of explaining how to do that tailgate. I'll have to see how much it'll cost me to buy the film. But Thanks for the video. 🔥🔥🔥👍🏼👍🏼
Because he genuinely handles his artistic expressions through his livelyhood. He loves what he’s doing and taken his time to perfect it. You can’t hide authentic sincerity, because it glows from within and sheds it’s light on all who witness'
Thanks for the good and useful video, as always. What you are doing by yourself looks easy, but I know it takes a lot of practice. Still, another pair of hands would be welcome in this job. It is best to work with cast rapid air foils, but when customers want a cheaper variant, say only cast without rapid air, it can be very challenging...🙋👍
Truck is sunset metallic and I thought the black accents would look good against the rust color. Im going to use knifeless tape. As a paperhanger i can appreciate your skills. Thanks Art
if you can feel a scratch with your fingernail, it will show through vinyl. if you cant feel the scratch then it could most likely be buffed out. if selling the truck, i guess i would let the buyer know there are some scratches just in case a few years later they want to remove it and they had no idea what was underneath; just take pictures before the wrap would work. i have an f150 and have been thinking about doing the whole tailgate, but the letters scared me. your video was great and im definitely going to try it now with your tips. Thank you!
I didn't see anything other than the dent that couldn't have been buffed out with some filler polish in about 30 minutes, entire tailgate. But very informative vid on how to deal with a lot of the challenges with wrapping, so thank you for that.

“Older vehicle” he says to a 2 years old truck 😂😂😂👏🏻🥰
How should I call it if im wrapping a 1997 truck? An antique, relic, prehistoric vehicle?
It's definitely a 2015-2017, but it has a 2018-2020 tailgate.
