    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 👌

  • @sicks6six
    @sicks6six Před rokem +112

    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,

    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?

    • @ethanhaessig5840
      @ethanhaessig5840 Před 2 lety +4

      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.

      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.
