HARD TAIL LIGHT TINT JOB | Air Release Tint Step By Step Instructions Using Knifeless Tape

[@Technique917]

I dig this format. Much more involved with all the graphics and pointers on screen. Thank you

[@aj9124]

Tried doing my Sequoia lights twice and couldn't get them right. None of the shops around me will tint tail lights. Watched this video a few times and tried again. Ended up perfect. Thanks for the great videos and detailed tips 👍

[@nickg7323]

MAN! You made that look way too easy!

[@htran527]

This video and your videos in general have helped me tremendously. Thank you so much for sharing your content Christian!

[@ynotthakraken]

Best video I have found, hands down

[@nicbtw6062]

I needed the knifeless tape pivot idea last night.. brilliant as usual. Well done

[@redskizedski7336]

Awesome. Love the way you got the whole light in one stretch.

[@c7uk]

I’ve never used VViVid and have only tinted relatively flat taillights - they came out great but, how come you can keep picking up the film without leaving a ‘fog’ or glue line on the transparent film? If I lifted I had to start over

[@TheYllib]

Been watching these videos to learn how to wrap. Gotta say really high quality of information. Coincidentally you're wrapping a 2019 RAV4, and that's what I'm working on! Keep up the awesome work and really appreciating the techniques you're sharing! Thanks!

[@dwx]

Love the step by step captions!

[@joshvilla9707]

I failed tinting the lights on my RX 350, similiar agressive lines of this rav4, plus it has a shark fin like the GS and IS. I think your method here will help me out a lot. Thanks for the tips!

[@JPA2147]

❤ I am learning and very determined. I gave a 2012 Toyota Camry that I am trying to detail out the "taxi" look. Head/tail lights, fog lights and different spoilers. I screwed up taillights by using too much heat and wet solution.... But I will get it!

[@OBS.Rey__]

I really like your videos because you do everything by yourself no extra hands good content bro

[@BulletsGarage]

Great video once again. I watched all your taillight tint videos but I think the hardest light to do is on a Lexus GS 350 or Lexus gsf because they have two shark fins on the side of the light which make it impossible to wrap. I tried so many times and failed. If you could get that car and do a demonstration of how you handle the install or even if it’s possible to do. That would be so much help!!!

[@ValkyrieLightwing]

Awesome! Thank God nothing I own has such aggressive lights so if I were to tint them it'd be theoretically easy

[@dwasyluk]

Really awesome video, thanks very much for taking the time to share your expertise. A quick question and sorry if I missed this in the video: 1. What was the purpose of the knifeless tape? In another light tinting video of yours on the basic lights you didn't use the knifeless, just the hobby knife. I'm trying to better understand when to use the knifeless? Is it just a different way of trimming the vinyl to fit the light and provides cleaner lines on complex shapes? In what scenario do u use knifeless vs. craft knife to trim? 2. It seems like wrapping the light while ON the car is the easiest way to get the best results, that sound accurate? Thanks again for your help, appreciate you taking the time to answer my questions if you can. Thank you!

[@skullwell1296]

Hello. Tanks to share your skill with us.Have you already try to wrap BMW G20 tail light? Looks quite difficult. Any advise? Thanks

[@TrailRiderTN]

Would love to hear your thoughts on a 2018-21 Subaru Crosstrek headlight/tailights if possible.

[@johnwoods2035]

Excellent attention to detail. Can watch u do this all day. Great job

[@nykiciaanderson7770]

I am so glad I found your page!!! I will be using vivid tint on my 2019 rav4! I'll let you know how it goes!

[@brokenbugatti7338]

How did it go? Abt to try my hand

[@franciscovasquez4555]

Attention to detail, great tips for this process even if were are consumers. thanks amigo from Houston Tx

[@tonyslack1579]

Just received my film for lights today, and got my spot confirmed for April workshop!!!! Man I’m stoked!!

[@russ1537]

Another quality video Christian! If you happen to get a BMW X5 in, can you show how you wrap that. Specifically the front bumper would be awesome.

[@Tony7190GR]

I don't have any experience wrapping so this might sound like a really stupid question but could you use this wrap on the body of a car if you just wanted to darken the original colour of the car ?

[@sichtbarfurallenutzer779]

I think you make the absolut best Videos on KZbin thank u 🙏🏽

[@cassiejvance7496]

Another very descriptive well presented video, thank you for giving your time for us all. 🤘🙏🤘

[@Embee99]

hi Mr. CK Wraps! Would the same technique (of stretching at 9:06 ) be applicable to a 10th gen Honda civic hatchback taillight? The curve is sharper in this case. Thank you!

[@purgetonix1415]

cool beans i sat and wrapped my mirror signals on first try watching this, haha thanks guy

[@BentzensEmporium]

I have an old CL500 and the taillights are not smooth, they have ridges. What you recommend?

[@dt64bulldog]

when i do it it looks good ,but man this texas heat makes the film start pulling back

[@kalani1987]

How would I use knifeless tape if I want to cut around the reverse light, but it's within the wrap (does not extend to the side)? Thanks great video

[@joannamarietaruc3613]

really helpful. I've watch most of your video.

[@Baldsohard365]

Can you give me advice on how to tint the tail lights on a 2021 volvo XC60. I did it without a heat gun in two pieces and it's peeling at the edges. I went and got a heat gun so that I can do it outdoors, but I'm wondering if you think that it can be done in one piece

[@andychu1172]

Can you make one on a headlight with crazy curves like a highlander or the same rav4?

[@rdalev1]

Great informative videos...about to tackle head and tail lights on a 2018 Murano...wish me luck as these are difenetly intricate lenses. What type of tape is the yellow you ran around the edge of the lens?

[@resipsa8343]

Great tutorial!!!!!

[@robertolouth7468]

Master piece 👍

[@andreaskunstwadl8602]

Vvivids Smokes are really easy to use! The best stuff I got my hands on :) But I always thought it would be to thick for Knifeless Tape Something new learned ^^ Thanks for this clip!

[@nobody3923]

Andreas Kunstwadl Vvivid matte smoke is insanely hard to use lol I went through at least 7 feet of it before I got use to it

[@aleks138]

@@nobody3923 oh snap. I just ordered some of the matte smoke. What was difficult about it?

[@andylane1968]

Thank you Christian, do you ever use the dark tint from vivvid and if you do can you do a video please, as you saw I've done mine on my car it's OK but it's got a bubble here and there so I'm going to redo it when we get a bit warmer.

[@Fastcarsforme]

Thanks for the great videos as always. I will be making my first attempt on a 2016 Golf R to tint tail lights because of your tutorials; fingers crossed!

[@mctg9043]

how'd it go? I can't get it right on my polo for the life of me, because the light wraps around the corner of the car.

[@frankc505]

I’ve been having trouble with Lexus tail lights everyone says they are not able to do them you should make a video of the rc F tail lights or is 300 tail lights tinting would be very helpful 👍🏼👍🏼

[@jewleighsim]

tried my CRV 2020 tailights last week. SUPER aggresive tailights. failed my first attempt but if there's one thing i learned from this channel it's to learn from past mistakes and keep trying.

[@Nio_xt]

How many rolls should I buy for headlights and tail lights q50 Infiniti?

[@jefecuh2770]

clean work! Where'd you get that orange tool belt?

[@luisestefes3411]

Is wrap cut a good substitute for 3m knife tape?

[@pinupsdetailing3684]

love the knifeless tape, but always find it to not cut how i want it. am i just being too picky i want it to cut like a razor or is there better stuff than the 3m brand? overall another great video Christian

[@chaysemaunz8418]

Do you recommend dark or light headlight and taillight tint?

[@parinp950]

can I use hair dryer instead of heat gun

[@nychillboy8724]

What temperature is your heat gun set at? Approximately.... 2,3,4,5 hundred, 1000?

[@singel09]

Taillights are easy to remove, in general. Is that not easier to wrap then?

[@gregmannos]

I feel like a caveman watching a modem doctor perform surgery when I watch your videos. You make it look so easy.

[@nathanzhenho]

Going to try this on my Corolla Hatch ! Tried a couple times and i just can't get over the weird angles and little intentional bumps .-. Hopefully this works :D

[@mannydrives]

Man, I’m trying to wrap a 2012 Prius V tail light and having difficulty with how to stretch it. It seems going in the opposite direction of what you did here might work the best.

[@kimjorgensen24]

Wow! Looks so nice as it hugs the light. Clearly a pro 😃 I just got my first Vvivid tint film and its extremely nice to work with. Now I just need to practice 😊

[@regescastro]

Awesome tutorial buddy. I loved. Thanks for sharing.

[@sssiod]

I’m trying to wrap 2019 Chevy Bolt taillights right now. Not going well. Have you done one of those before First time wrapping taillights. First time using Vvivid tint vinyl. Looking at this video looks like I’m not stretching enough over the top where it’s bunched up and I can’t work it out.

[@sssiod]

I’ve attempted now 5 times. I got really close the last time so it’s an incremental success. These lights have two concave curves on the long side and hard corner at the top. I got a bubble trapped in the lower concave part and when I went to pushed it out it popped through the film leaving a wrinkle and what looks like a little cut. Then wrinkles around the top corner that wouldn’t shrink out enough. Almost did it.

[@Birdfeeder795]

All hail the master🙌

[@geort7401]

i love your videos , you are like a professor at a university , do you any tips or may be a video to tint tail lights on a new mini cooper s ?

[@BehindMyVisor]

I guess film is universal and thus the best option for the tints, windows, etc. But it’d be nice if there was a film-thin cover molded to your vehicle lights shape to just slide right over hassle free

[@nrobo7692]

Im not sure what is the knifeless tape for? and why it was only used on the edge between the light and paint, and not the space between the two light sections. Is it to protect any damage from the blade?

[@Hbaxster]

The knife less tape was to exclude the black section of the tail light. He wanted to tint only the red and leave the black part of the light bare.

[@yusufdawood1426]

This is so awesome. When I first started watching your videos I was 'okay let's see if I can find more on other channels' Now you like my go to wrap guru for all my tough installations or refresher. Thank you My customers love my work and credit to you for taking so much effort in to what you show us Fucking A++++++

[@kj053910]

I’d love to see how you do a super difficult one like a Kia Stinger GT (because I’m trying to figure out how on earth to do mine). There are a number of parts that are concave and I can’t figure out how.

[@Icepyr0]

What happens when you do it when it pulls back a tiny bit with tension? Is there any tricks to loosen up the film to relieve the tension?

[@watchdaride]

do you need to post heat the curved parts ?

[@Michael_00001]

M2 Comp tails plz. I can't seem to get it in one piece. Would love to hear your thoughts about them even if you just take a look at them without actually wrapping them.

[@adrianz1777]

awesome!

[@jorgeagarcia9557]

Excellent

[@drksole3666]

Its heatgun Kelly!!

[@LMGSvideos]

Excellent job, as usual.. Unfortunately I didn't do a very good job on mine, and now need to remove it and start over. It has been on for a few months. Is there a good way to remove it without damaging the lights?

[@CKWraps]

Use heat to soften the film. My taillights have been tinted for over 3 years

[@unfussylobster]

Please do the 10th gen civic head light and tail lights please, I wanna tint my type r head and tail lights! Great videos by the way, Learning a lot.

[@larryb95]

How difficult to do the tail lights on a 2005 chevy avalanche?

[@naluey99]

i am going to tint my 08 subaru legacy tail lights and headlights, the tail lights are slightly conclaves, any suggestions as to how to pull the tint to lay it on the light? i was thinking of having me pull the tape to keep tension while someone else squegies/ pushes the tape on the light.

[@waiowaichilla]

We need that tint in germany!

[@KaijuClayClub]

Can a heatgun be replaced with a propane torch?

[@CKWraps]

No, it can't

[@krewpunk]

Weird question, would this work on windows too?

[@Jfresh55]

Just tinted my taillights and damn were they hard. 10+ hours over a few days. Mine have very harsh curves

[@voodoo-rides]

Hardest tail light i have ever done is honda clarity, its 3 faces like this on but bigger. What do you think of it ??

[@michaelbautista6982]

Im gonna try and do mine a 2019 ram 1500 and they look pretty difficult to do...do to the fact of how the blind spot sensor is designed into the tailight

[@ITheNextLegendI]

Any luck? My brother and I did an 05 Colorado a while back. He got a '19 Ram 1500. We tried, but the indentions in the taillight proved to be a big challenge. We actually gave up lol. Any luck on yours?

[@gonzogonz915]

Where is this shop at

[@ChipeoShow]

The best 💪

[@BALL_BUZZ]

How much does this cost?

[@Flflatflow]

Do a video using Luxe.

[@sttm1283]

i wanna see you wrap the headlights and taillights of a bmw f30

[@parkerhein3378]

Pbbbt u should try tailights on a g35/g37 sedan

[@redbaron2448]

Doesn't it have a clear plastic protection you're supposed to take off after the tint

[@battleborn_ppfandtint]

How does this film compare to Luxe?

[@helloweeny5541]

I try and I try and I can’t do it

[@386joedaddy]

Do a santa cruz please

[@KPGT1988]

finish line or design line ?

[@ns5337]

Has anyone done taillight tints on a 2013-2015 honda accord? I tried twice but this light is too complex cause of the curve on the top

[@jeffallen6937]

Try an 05 monte Carlo

[@honestychampmilland2007]

Do a 21 rdx

[@PushinBenz]

Holy shit I just took like a whole hour tryna glass my light like this n bro did it in 1 minute 😂😂

[@CrunchDramaNetwork]

3 rolls and can't my F150 headlights. The masking tape comes off. Im just gonna spray them

[@vinylpac5671]

Hello from Salamanca (Spain) You could tell me what type of tape you use to protect the paint from cutting with the blade. do you have an Amazon link to be able to acquire it? Thank you very much for your videos, they have helped me a lot.

[@CKWraps]

3m 301+

[@johnnydefelice7682]

If I keep screwing mine up. Who can I pay to do this kind of job? Body shop tried to charge me $300.

[@play4funn708]

The new trailblazer rs right now is too hard to tint i think ill just paint it

[@Jimmy_Jamz]

You gotta do video on new Camry taillights. So many curves and bulges. Just did my Camry but has some issues. Would like to see you have a go at it.

[@sherman9324]

The ultimate question! Is it street legal?

[@campbikerepeat3862]

If you get the chance to do a tail light tint job on a 2016 or newer Toyota 4Runner, please post the video. What a pain the a$$.
