"have fun, you won't but try" 😂😂 man I felt that one

[@craig4926]

Great video man, and spot on with doing this yourself, takes time and patience but is very doable and cost effective, i wrapped my first truck a year ago and about to wrap my new one. Saved myself 5,000$ doing it myself. For anyone wondering most shops start at $3500 for a basic color change for trucks and suvs. After watching a bunch of videos i learned that this next wrap job ill work a little smarter by measuring and cutting the panels then before ripping the liner off ill cut out the extra material so i can use it for scraps like mirrors and small stuff.

“Might as well go the extra 15 miles” dude I was cracking up the whole vid 😂

🎉🎉🎉🎉 vehicles you did look great thank you for your help I was very nervous and with the heat gun you showed me I am so happy right now I am going to wrap my truck now thank you so much

[@proflashrtist]

You're giving me a scary amount of confidence to try this on my Yukon XL

[@sarahfranklin1911]

When you’re doing the tailgate, do you wrap where the tail light goes to? Or cut it off?

[@cutweldngrind]

I bought me a used 2013 F250 for $800 about 2 years ago and been wanting to change the color on it. I'm not sure if I can do a wrap alone but still learning on KZbin.

[@chinito20fam]

I would say wrap it changing the look making it look nice.. from what I know your vehicle has to be clean.. if it isn't able to stick to the truck then magnets is needed and also helps you hold the wrap for stretching.. I well try it once just to do it... Maybe get people to get into it.. but for me I would say you can wrap can go 2 ways.. 1 changing the color and seeing in person if you really want that color.. another is if you want to change the color and if your still with the truck or car aka loan.. then wrap is also perfect.. under the wrap we'll always be the original color without messing with it.. con is after 2 yrs honestly to be safe.. you have to take it off and redo it all over again..

[@fahs_one]

Thanks for share you process, could share the link where you bought the vinil???

[@deweyhuneycutt1413]

Looks awesome 🤩

[@peacerules6418]

Good demonstration mate, I did my bonnet (hood) just about pulled my hair out ...ripped one bit off the edge 😳 and thought I'm not starting again so I spliced apiece in and you can only just see it.

[@TonyOgEst97]

Most professional shops will cover there edges with extra pieces ;)

[@turnertv25]

What size wrap did you use for hood?

[@aaronfraser2347]

“It’s not rocket surgery or brain science” 😂😂😂

[@Kuzican01]

Thanks for this video. We'll done sir!

[@chriscolon6094]

[@gmoneyop2736]

[@jengineer9405]

I'm sure he said it on purpose. Got us all to stay and watch the whole video.

[@reinaldogarcia5335]

Sick looks like your having fun 😊

[@sydewayzmo3905]

Yo were you able to hit the F150 hood with one piece or have to use two?

[@NA-rp7ih]

Did you have to order in one wrap bro or in 2 x

[@13bHappy]

Did pretty good dude

[@ooohlookitshines3944]

Can you send the link to where you purchased???

[@whiskeyactual.]

What I'm wondering in regards to trucks. How do you cover the area behind the cab (in between the cab and the bed) where there is like 2 inches of space?

[@boazrijff5761]

Wrap shops typically remove the cab. It can be done, but you need to be a master at placing knifeless tape in that small space

[@FrankyCpunishmentSTYLE]

Take off the bed of the truck get a couple buddy’s to help you pick it up of the frame

[@nickizcool20]

You can maybe 🤔 wrap 3 inches in? You’d an really see all the way in there

[@LaShaMayolaWright]

Where buying the wrap from?

[@TaterChip91]

I get my ass kicked trying to tint my front windows on my F150. That little dip down on the window gets me every time. I just can't get a feel for it. And for whatever stupid reason I get that "i think i can do it this time" kind of confidence every now and then. Only to do exactly what you said, rip it off and ball it up and chuck it and my neighbors definitely hear some colorful language every time. Trying this would likely make me rip the skin on my face off out of frustration 😂

[@RealBMXRacingThePodCast]

What was is that you used to get the sticky stuff off after you removed the emblems?

[@deweyhuneycutt1413]

Where did u get the wrap??

[@joshuaharvey5671]

Nice video bro thanks

[@Blizzon17877]

How much wrap does it take to wrap a suv?

[@kyleellison4003]

Say you run short can you overlap it on itself

[@Jake-bt2ww]

What was the final amount of feet used for the f-150 in this video? And what was the final time it took? Just curious looking to do my truck which is the same as yours

[@frog9908]

Wrap my truck bro. You’re experienced. Good ethic.

[@WesbyConstruction]

Where do you order from

[@Gunner0877]

I started wrapping my 96 Silverado and corners are killing me. Like by the cab and bed area. Any suggestions on the best way to wrap dually fenders?

[@lordvader702]

I have the same question as below how did you do behind the cab and bed is there a trip or just take off bed

[@Luckingsworth]

Other option is just do as much as you can with your hand and use a pole with a soft end to get it "good enough" in the places you cant see anyway

[@Kevin_Yagoonie]

I tried wrapping a couple times. But always have problems wrapping front bumpers because of the angles and curves. Any tips?

[@mikimiki195]

Who do you order your wrap from

[@carlosmalagon3849]

Yeah I have a question I always have issues wrapping in between the the cab and the bed of the trucks,

[@user-fj5zs6tj8q]

How many yards do you use to wrap your truck

[@apexcorner45]

I believe it was around 65ft

[@chalabama80]

Love the knowledge, but really love the sly comedy

[@landondavid5773]

What’s the face mask for?

[@apexcorner45]

It's SPF rated and it was an extra sunny day. I get dark pretty easily

[@earlyblackmz]

How long does it last?

[@pzroclan]

Depends on quality of the wrap and the weather wherever you live.

[@Angela.RaesRestorations]

[@fortniteclipsandvids880]
