Here is the video that many were waiting! Thanks to our robotic friend Matthew, We will show you hot to apply our film on a curved corner without cutting into the corner. Be careful and follow all the steps to the end.

I did this tonight for something in my bfs van. Except I used my hairdryer to stretch and it come out perfect! Thanks 😊

[@ARTESIVE]

great

[@ARTESIVE]

it's okay, also the hairdryer is fine!

[@jamesolelo4406]

So like any corner you just have to be careful and take your time lol glad I learned to do this on a car before building my own tables and drawers to wrap

[@ARTESIVE]

we are happy for you!

[@ARTESIVE]

thank you!

[@justconcentratee]

From my short but very successful experience with wrapping, I heat tension even the flat surfaces for a strong bong. I stary exactly as you with peeling off a small amount and folding but after the first initial full stick of that amount I move forward with heat tensioning the rest

I feel cheated! I really would have loved to see how you put the film on the back side of the board. To see how you cut the film to make it look uniform

[@superduperboyx]

Nice video but I really wanted to see how you did the BACK part in connecting with the edge.

[@Ris-v4w]

would have loved to see that too. did you maybe see any other vid that explains properly how to do corners and edges ? thx !

[@LaurenLakes]

This is exactly what I needed - awesome job!! Thank you!!!

Thanks!

[@LittleLikeness]

Brilliant solution with the heat gun for more edge control..thank you for this solution!

[@ARTESIVE]

Hi! Thank you too!

[@secession77]

Great tutorial! Will this method work on a board with rounded holes inside? I want to wrap my radiator cover somehow. I think it would be much easier to hot tension all those holes than trying to trace and cut out the foil.

[@ARTESIVE]

hi, thanks. then , this is up to you. we suggest to test first in some part and then decide if this applications can be fine for your case.

[@Ris-v4w]

how did it work out ?! facing a similar issue. i will use heat to mold the film into the creeces, i don't know if this solution will last over the years though ...

[@secession77]

@@Ris-v4w I gave up the idea of using the vinyl wrap at all. The adhesion was too weak on wood material.

[@Ris-v4w]

@@secession77 yeah, this just looks to be a short term solution. although i think it will last 2-3 years if applied properly, until i get the chance to remodel

Could we use a hair dryer instead of a heat gun? Thank you.

[@ARTESIVE]

absolutely.. anything that creates hot air is fine.. so also an hair dryer

[@lpainter8008]

What if you have an inner curve on L shape desk that is also angled, about 30 to 40 degrees rather than a 90 degree edge to the desk top?

Hi, I didn't understand. If it is already filled and sanded, just use a primer before applying the vinyl.

[@heavenscent700]

Hello I have an ikea cabinet door that is mdf. There are little parts that has already bubbled because of moisture. Can i still salvage it and cover with contact paper?

[@franceb3156]

Very helpful, Sir! 🔥

[@LaurenLakes]

So if all the corners are rounded do you just do the same thing all the way around? And would you do the 4 rounded corners first and then do the straight edge in between the corners or would you just work your way around? Thanks!

[@DRIFTER_Official]

yes baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!❤

[@ARTESIVE]

Great question! 😊 Yes, if all the corners are rounded, you can apply the film the same way around the entire surface. We recommend starting with the rounded corners first. This allows you to smooth out the edges and avoid wrinkles. After that, you can work your way along the straight edges, gently stretching the vinyl to ensure it fits perfectly. The key is to take your time and use a heat gun or hair dryer to help stretch and smooth the film as you go. Thanks for asking and happy wrapping! 💪

[@kumiko4295]

Thank you. It's very helpful

[@THEGRAVOID]

Just a quickie, What temperature should i set the heat gun and for how many seconds? Hehe

[@ARTESIVE]

normal temperature is about 150°C at normal distance, but it depends also about time you warm and distance.. make some test and find your ideal setting.

[@auauseattle]

How do you do the other side?

[@ARTESIVE]

Hi, what do you mean with "other side"? We show in this video the detail of full tensioning application..

[@binodgurung3367]

What if the surface is curved as like that of shield of captain america

[@ARTESIVE]

beside asking Iron Man, we should see how is the shape to answer you better. Please send us an email and we will reply you better.

[@donlunn792]

You mean using it on compound curves ? I would think that if it works on that fairly sharp,curved corner a compound curve would be easy,using the heat gun. I have to update my kitchen cupboard doors, and intend to use it on them.Every corner is a compound curve. Even on my old kitchen,the covering on the corners was beginning to de -laminate,where there was any heat.So even professionally made cupboard doors can have problems.But I am sure after a couple of failed attempts I will get the hang of it. Cheaper than replacement doors. Similar film is used on Cars ,and compound curves come in abundance on vehicles. Give it a go. Hope all goes well on your project. Don.

[@hessulipoika13]

Should you put some nails to really lock to vinyl on cabin?

[@ARTESIVE]

well, at the moment it's still there in right position without any nail.. maybe you are used to low quality vinyls.

[@ranjanapant9084]

[@s.o343]

Is this film the same as contact paper?

[@FitzyKay1031]

Hello! What temperature should we be using for the heat gun! Thank you!

[@ARTESIVE]

The temperature used depends a lot on the film, the distance and the work you are doing. Generally a temperature of 150-200 °C (300-400 °F) is used. However, it is possible to use a normal hairdryer, the time will be longer due to the lower temperature.

Hi, thanks for the info. Would like to ask. Can it be stick on a plywood or mdf board door.? Do i need to sand it and apply primer before applying this vinyl film?

Hello. Yes it is better to sand it before.. On MDF surfaces we suggest to smooth the surface before apply the vinyl and use the primer especially on corners or edges, such our Magnum Primer for example. You can find it on our official website artesive.com

Found it useful till you didn’t show the next step of applying the back

[@ARTESIVE]

Hi, maybe we'll show it in the next tutorial

[@Autism_Forever]

I usually precut for the back to make sure I do not slice through folded over edges of front film. Matching grain or pattern is also important for good look. I move film around until I find good pattern match and then mark that spot and then draw exact required size and shape of the back from that mark. Then apply as usual - peel a little backing, fold backing paper, and start pressing. Takes a while oftentimes.
