You deserve any and every dollar you get from KZbin man, thanks

[@kylesoutlooks7259]

All $348.42 of it. lol. I’m Not sure how much he actually makes, however, he is great. 👍 many appreciate this guy, as they should

[@francispeter5695]

An extremely articulate and well-educated young man. His parents and his schools can be proud of him. I wish him great success in what he's doing and whatever he wants to do in the future !

[@keithkantrowitz7591]

Disabled veteran, with a lot of time. Thanks for the know how, and the motivation. Will customize my gear, and aspire to be as professional as you are.

[@TofuProductionCinema]

Legend has it CK wraps is still saying that sound is “fine”.

[@ColinPrince]

It really is a form of art. Here in Northern Australia, this concept is still fairly new and it’s difficult to find someone like yourself that fully understands the artistry and work that you put into your cars. Almost Magic. Really enjoy your vids:

[@Beatdakotonaioi]

This has got to be the best tutorial hands down. Especially having a sunroof that opens like this. Thanks man

[@kuckian]

ok funny story for you. i had no idea chrome was hard to wrap and bought 20m blue holographic green shift chrome. I tried to wrap my 350z in the cold outside without wind cover using a heat gun. within 0.2 seconds the first piece was ruined with stress marks hahahaha. i kept trying to do the fender for an hour but my technique was sooooo bad. i then tried the door and was equally bad. so, i thought, CK says the other thinner wraps can be easier, i bought some carbon and black gloss for the bonnet and roof, waiting for it to arrive. then i watch am HOUR long video from THE BEST WRAPPER in the world doing a roof. if it takes you an hour indoors it's basically gonna take me a year. like a full year of lifting, repositioning, hahahaha. i love this channel. definitely gave me a lot of confidence to try wrapping and learn sone good tips. i won't be a pro any time soon but the experience (whilst so bloody hard) makes me happy and one day i will manage the full car. thanks!! you are appreciated!

[@TylerZBeast]

How hard of a time did you have wrapping your 350? I just bought some avery wrap for mine just wondering how bad its gonna be :D

[@migueljgonzalez]

My girlfriend and I did the roof in metallic chameleon, took 3 hours, Hood took 2.5 hours but it’s a lot easier doing it with an extra set of hands, even if the extra set doesn’t know what exactly to do ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@mytwocents315]

In the cold 🥶. Yeah big fail. Know from experience

[@1ohno11]

You didn't pay for his 3 stage wrap course though I assume

[@kstoff2218]

He is the truth. Learning so much and can’t wait to emulate.

[@madebyscratch]

Your wife must have arms of steel holding that camera up for almost an hour...

[@CKWraps]

She said she was shaking by the end

[@BRIMAVILLE]

😂

[@christilton3985]

Arms of steel?...Super Woman!!!

[@pele2005]

I thought she didn't get enough close ups as he is doing it.

[@whitewrapper2666]

HAHAHAHA the red light wasnt on? The whole time? Welp let's do this again

[@xavierhart100]

Really appreciate this, I love the unedited ness and captivation of how much patience and mastery you display when working

[@sergioramirez2947]

After 4 tries i was finally able to wrap my roof on my Civic Hatchback. (Avery Dennison Gloss Black) Thank you CK Wraps!

[@brilliantclothingcompany5115]

Only videos I don’t mind watching for over a hour. You teach so much in detail and made my life easier while vinyl wrapping the car in working on now. Thankyou 🙏🏻

[@ivan2340]

This is the best roof wrapping video. Thank you so much for the tutorial!

[@ghc_gto_6.0]

Shout out to the camera 🎥 person for giving us the views we’ve all wanted to see!!! And shout out to ck for another flawless wrap!!! With lots of tips, tricks, and technique on how to!! And what to watch out for before, during, and after wrapping. That’s why I’m subscribed for life!!

[@hobie1dog]

informative, the first time I've ever seen anybody use wrap, you are the master

[@sidneytorresjr7284]

Subscribed based on this video alone. For us DIYers these kinds of videos are GOLD. Thank you for the time and effort to record/explain this process.

[@mirandalee9433]

Have to say I've binge watched a lot of your videos and they are extremely helpful. I have a 2013 veloster turbo rspec that I'm gonna look at wrapping after my wedding next year. You make it look so easy, can't wait to find out what a mess I'm gonna get myself into lol especially considering I've never done it before. Hopefully the fact I'm artistic will help me in my adventure. Just hope the wrap lasts and turn out good....who knows, maybe I'll make a second job out of it. Although I dont think I would have the patience for some of the more tedious jobs.

[@kleptoematt]

2013 doesn't have rspec...

[@zachariahmetoyer6425]

I did a chrome delete with some vinyl, this video makes me pretty confident I can do the black roof wrap this spring. Great video

[@Tmtiger12]

The Tom Brady of Wrapping. Great leader & great coach as well 🫡

[@lummy321]

Love these types of videos ... So informative from a true master ... Brilliance ... CKWraps rule ...

[@bmxenthusiast5348]

Bro. Love your videos, mental attitude in times of uncertainty. I think your positivity is inspiring. I'm attending a wrap and dip class in Washington state. I have a passion for wrapping or painting vehicles, and with your help and inspiration, I appreciate that. Keep up your hard work. Plus your tattoos are badass 😉😜

[@Deveraux123456]

Great video. Thank you for showing the every day person how to do these things. I was afraid to wrap certain things on my care but your videos gave me the confidence to do it and it looks great. Keep the vids coming.

[@getlost692]

Professional attitude and work we the people appreciate

[@crashk1955]

Thanks, Chris, for sharing your knowledge and experience. You've given confidence to a matures to take on projects of their own.

[@chrisclarke3645]

just started watching these videos find them very interesting, Im 50 i might even start doing a couple of wrap on my motorbike.

[@user-rb1yf4he9q]

I have watched 8 different vids on this subject and there were 5 different methods. This tells me the majority of “ professional “ wrappers are winging it. I did my mkv gti w/ sunroof by myself with $50 of 3m vinyl wrap, a $45 wrap “ kit” of amazon ( which I returned after using so free!) and $15 cutting string. Took my 45 minutes. After Completed I took it by a shop to ask if it was a good wrap ( I said a different shop had done it and wondered if they ripped me off for the $500 they charged ). They guy said it looked great and that I didn’t get taken. So……………….🤔😎

[@HemiMuscle]

My gloss black roof looks really good I think all white cars should have it especially on the chargers👍

[@mimikyuthepokemon3489]

Hemi Muscle chargers are gay. A lot of wanna be tuff guys think they hard drive a real mans car Honda Civic with V tech

[@CaptainCandycorn]

Im about to wrap the roof of my white GTI. Completely agree, it should have come black from the factory.

[@Cjcastillo6]

That beep is the lexus. You have the key in the car and when you get near the door handle it’s going off. Haha

[@DjPaulyWalnutz]

You’re so good at explaining and seem like such a nice dude. Thanks for all your hard work and your for videos. I’m wrapping my roof, mirrors, wing, and possibly door handles with vvivid gloss black. I’ll make sure to post once done. Thanks again and keep posting.

[@ivyn4150]

how’d it go any pics ?

[@BANZONME]

bro you nailed that head on..shout out to your wife for a pro like vid..great job yall!!!

[@ewpfaffly]

The beeping wasn't that bad, better than some of the annoying music I have heard some people put in their video's. Great job IMO. I have watched a lot of your video's, I am just not quite confident enough to do it yet, but I will do this someday. One worry is removing things like lights and trim, but my biggest worry is that the surface I'm applying to is going to have small dings, rock chips, scratches, etc... and I don't want to waste money on wrap that doesn't look good. I am going to watch some prep video's to get more tips and confidence. Thanks for sharing your talent with us, as for the negative comments or the haters, screw them. I would be laughing all the way to the bank. Let them do a better job if they think they can.

[@jovtecxtv1321]

Extremely helpful ! This will be my first car I do a roof wrap on.

[@tuhituhi701]

I'm impressed with his work

[@slayz1515]

That grey triangle tool is called a "platinum ez reach". Just an fyi

You are the best hello from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷

[@amir67intrinsic]

Beautiful work.

[@shanjafri92]

Very informative video. Love how you kept explaining every step you were doing.

[@kellyjensen9425]

This is how I get when I’m focused. All hell could be going off around me but I have a job to get done. I hate interruptions.

[@jeremy7lopez]

Doing it the right way. You know your shit and not annoying to listen to. Thanks

[@bgblkhunk]

very detail . this guy is the best i seen

[@scottgillig908]

The marking on the backing that Christian is referring too is usually put on by the vinyl manufacturer, in this case Avery - Dennsison. It's put there a few ways. Avery runs the backing through a printer, probably somewhere around 160 f.p.m. Or, when ordering their backing from a paper mill, if that paper mill has printers, Avery could request that they print Avery's logo on the back of the backing. 99 % of the time it's for their own advertising, and it works. The more people see their name, the more name association there is between the vinyl product and Avery. It's an interesting process to watch. Here's something i found out yesterday. I went to a new vinyl store that just opened up. I asked what they had in the Avery line. I was shown samples. None of the samples had an Avery printing on the back. Why ? Because all he was doing was middle-manning the vinyl at a marked up price. Used to be a very common practice. So, even though i saw Avery vinyl, there was no Avery printing. No Avery printing, then I don't know the vinyl manufacturer. If it had Avery print on the back, once i got home, I Google Avery vinyl, and see a cheaper price. It's not a dishonest practice at all. If they sold it at the same price as Avery, then they don't make a dime selling you a roll. So, always buy from the source. My best, Scott P.S. Christian, another gorgeous wrap job !

[@taitjenson2617]

I am quite impressed in the work you do. If you ever want to expand in wisconsin, let me know

[@f-250blacksmokedawg3]

You have the best videos very helpful. I’m going to wrap my car . Keep up the great content!

[@renepietersen5408]

Great Video. great teamwork from you and your wife.

[@mariomora6541]

Great teacher. Thanks.

[@steve1998]

Wow man. Excellent freakin video!!!!

[@KHSxDAVIDHERNANDEZ]

I wish you were in California I love your work and videos I tried to wrap my hood and failed due to over heating the vinyl and I failed my roof wrap by over stretching! I rather have you do my work.

[@lp9280]

4:49 , 6:32 - you touching the keyless lock button on door handle with your leg when key is inside and car beeps to say - "hey key is inside - you can't lock me" :D

[@Roadsurfer2k11]

Yup as CJ mentioned the beep was definitely the fob being outside the car when its accessoried on. My Hyundai does it..same sound

[@laszlodesimon4768]

Great video showing some true artisan techniques. Your professional abilities are exceptional. Thanks for sharing!

[@s.o.f.fpatriotsforlife414]

Best video on youtube

[@davidsonbil8509]

Dude very passionate great video

[@sxviper]

Thanks for your videos. They have given me the confidence to try to wrap my car soon. I did one rim and it turned out pretty good.

[@aimeemcclure4674]

Great video man thinking of trying to wrap my roof soon this was super informative

[@RazorTheSouljaBoy]

Good ol Lexus beeping every time you’re near the handle and the keys in the car.

[@ghc_gto_6.0]

Tanner R that’s what that sound was??? ..

[@CKWraps]

I'm going to have to test that today. I could've sworn it was coming from something else. I'll let you know

[@_OLE_]

It's beeping cause the windows are down and the car is locked I own a is350 and it does the same thing

[@andysstuff9139]

I was working on a newer GS and it was doing the same thing. Inside the shop tho, that beep really does sound like it was coming from somewhere else. Took me a while to realize it was the car lol

[@markgiles8527]

I enjoy watching work like this. I do want to learn this - mainly because I want to Wrap my own car. What is a good, not-expensive, film to learn with? I do want to try a Digi-camouflage pattern.

[@pedro_ferreirinha]

Dont think the Avery is too shinny. I personally prefer the Oracal 970. Or if the money is not the problem the PPF is the best option.

[@TheShangralaaaa17]

Made that look sooo easy haha. Excellent

[@johndoe2022]

WOW you are the best Wrapper in the world. how you going to clean the adhesive you mentioned at 53:08 ? Does Aliexpress squeege will do the job? thank you

[@louisgreenberg5384]

you make it look so easy

[@arturracer1166]

Exactly mine thought. I bet if I try it myself with my car it will take me half a day and two rolls of film. Just like when I was tinting my windows ;-)

[@aussieflyer70]

OMG....got my delivery today of 5D High Gloss Black Carbon Fibre wrap, i bought it off Ebay.....holy crap its soooooo thick, instant stick on contact and no air release as it was advertised, looks absolutely awesome but no way its touching my car, lost out on this one i think.

[@nhatdinh6070]

Me too

[@ahumb69]

The beep is from the car. It sounds exactly like mine , which leads me to believe before seeing the emblem that it’s a Lexus. The noise is when you touch the door handle, it’s a touch sensitive locking and unlocking system

[@inactive67]

Pulling the cutting tape adhesive edge must be a good feeling. LIght at the end of the tunnel so to speak.

[@f.picazo7912]

Geeez what color wrap is the rest of the car??

[@d3mondemolitia966]

Hey can u please show how to wrap a truck roof which has the 4 ridges on the roof

[@jimrogers8105]

You make it look like a magic trick !! Godd job ! Much love From Quebec

[@jacktaylor6135]

Wonderful Video showing me how to wrap!

[@Kaibil66]

That is a beautiful and professional job....you are the best!!!

[@SuperThunder911]

Awesome video,very professional 💪👍

[@ssleepingpandasgamereplays9824]

thanks for these videos. I did my roof today with some avery camo. came out great.

[@JamesWilson-lg7bx]

Nice job man you gonna take pride in your work

[@jeremys959]

You make this look easy, I tried doing a stripe on my tailgate and failed horribly. Great video

[@gustavomelendez5514]

Bro you're a f****** badass brother thanks for taking the the time to splints with all these suckers

[@milsgarage]

Great video. Very detailed. Thank you!!

[@vigilantejude3500]

As an RC owner, I can tell you that this is the deadliest colour that I've ever seen. This is an amazing job. Anyone know how much a job like this costs?

[@brianbiegert3301]

Thank you for these videos. I always get something out of them.

[@thereflectionartist]

This guy rocks!!!!

[@virgilf3]

Thanks for this video

[@plicslac]

YOU'RE THE BEST BRO!

[@Marcus-hj5id]

Would love to see an updated video for this. Great teaching, but the camera quality makes it really difficult to see the lines & how much vinyl is left over to tuck after cutting

[@wattimena]

Such a skill! Very well done! Just wondering how much will it cost to do it?

[@brianchesser576]

You have an amazeing skill fun to watch I bet you can tint windows well too !

[@JumpInTV]

great work from good hands.

[@firstdondiego]

Well, honestly this is pretty useless information to me but was very satisfying to watch. And I sat and watch the entire video all while I had work to do. LMAO.

[@levistephens8256]

Dang you make this look so easy.

[@marcrogers3810]

The only thing I'd add or do different would be to remove all the shield guard / soap and water solution before cutting, all that liquid lying around could get under those edges and be game over.

[@staticmodemedia6799]

Would you please be able to do a video comparing different gloss black brands and how bad their orange peel is?

[@Jeffbambam]

That was fantastic ,thanks a lot !

[@chalinxc5185]

I'm struggling with vvivid xpo gloss black, what is that specific Avery dennison you used on this roof?

[@TSXBOY]

That car is from NYC .. 💪

[@Joshua-zn4fe]

What color is that greenish gold wrap on that car?

[@dubeast209]

AirPod user here. Yes I can hear the beeping and it’s actually kinda loud but it’s really annoying 😂 just your luck that it had to happen during an hour long video

[@kietounuh948]

tks 4 showing me and continue what i can see, thank u

[@carlosjauregui825]

Great work my friend. Flawless victory

[@dubeast209]

You stated that you had to glass it out because the way it was wasn’t a good way for it to be squeegeed out, I would of liked to hear why it isn’t good. Also you said that you loved to work with this type of vinyl because it’s so thin and easy to work with, and because it is a thin vinyl that it comes with disadvantages, I would of also liked to know what some of those disadvantages are. Just curious because I just paid a local vinyl/ tint guy to wrap the hood & roof of my car and it low key looks like he used thin vinyl and I would like to know what my disadvantages are. Thanks! I only paid $360 for hood & roof

[@coolarrow9127]

A sunroof that opens on the outside of the car is the result of it being a dealer installed option, opening on the inside is an OEM installed option...

[@ph0bolus]

Still waiting on that shark fin removal video for a lexus :)

[@johannagonzalez7490]

your job is wonderfull, thank for you video.

[@childrenoflight3010]

Thankyou excellent

[@ARMWRESTLINGCYCLINGFRANCE]

That tack changes the entire process. Maybe I'm old school, but control tac from 3M is way easier to deal with.

[@CKWraps]

Nothing is easier than Avery my friend. Control Tac is a gimmicky name for pressure sensitive and Avery has the best pressure sensitive adhesive. To be honest, I don't even like Avery. There are much better films these days and 3m is below most.

[@ARMWRESTLINGCYCLINGFRANCE]

@@CKWraps Thank you for the reply sir! Yeah, I honestly haven't wrapped a car in over a decade and I am trying to decide on a brand that I can be confident enough of to jump into wrapping my Tesla. I just remember having confidence that if I messed up with the application, I had the "control tac" to save my ass. I was always doing full image wraps. So each sheet had to line up perfectly. Im assuming wrapping all one color will be a piece of cake compared to doing that.

[@CKWraps]

@@ARMWRESTLINGCYCLINGFRANCE it has its other challenges. A lot of times the goal isn't to make a commercial wrap look like the vehicle was painted. With color change you'll need to cover every edge, corner and recess to prevent any of the paint color from showing at any angle.

[@ARMWRESTLINGCYCLINGFRANCE]

@@CKWraps True. I was doing full wraps on racecars and the attention to detail was important, but not quite as strict as it would be working on a luxury vehicle.
