I just want to say thank you to you Christian, not just for the content and knowledge of wrapping, but for giving me the confidence to change careers and pursue something I love. I took a 5 day course through Hexis here in Australia recently and I've now wrapped two cars and I'm investing in refurbishing my garage into a shop. Without you I wouldn't have thought it was possible to go out on my own at 30 years old and do something completely different. Cheers!

[@LurkMoar101]

May I ask where you get your film from? Ive had outrageous quotes to ship film to WA.

[@zanedavid9629]

LurkMoar101 You can buy Hexis, Oracal and Avery locally here in Melbourne, all three have suppliers. Orafol (Oracal film) have a sales representative and distributor for WA, or you can buy direct from their website. Graphic Art Mart in Belmont will distribute Avery.

Being a sign shop owner myself, I have to give you props on doing what you do. You get LOTS of credibility by doing videos... and this one especially. As we know, if it was easy everyone would be doing it. As long as you have the market and skills and customer service, you WILL be successful.

[@timjilman3295]

As a 20 year one man business, this is all solid advice. I install shower doors, the only difference is I don’t have to sell anything, the bath supply stores quote my price and give my name. But this wrap thing is looking like a sweet add on. I have a shop, and nobody is doing this around me. Thank you for all of the info you share.

[@towardsanewera5480]

Thanks, Chris, once again I have been working for a restaurant company for years and I make money, but I'm bored to do the same thing over and over. I do that for living, but my passion is not there anymore. probably it's going to be hard to start but I feel my enthusiasm awakes when I start to realize that cars are my passion and it's funny cause years ago I did work for a company doing tinting windows and honestly I'm not looking to become rich right away, I'm looking that thing can sparkle my creativity and passion. It's been a while since I didn't feel so excited to do something like this, I have past hours watching videos from you and many other people around, but thanks to your honestly and humbleness I can say you got me really inspired. the only thing I can say, it's thank you so much! I don't know how far I will get in this but I discovered that I'm still can change my path. Thank you again!

[@chiefgyab9985]

I would like to say thank you. You truly love what you are doing and show that in every single video. You showing what's behind it, is proof you care about the industry and not just yourself and your business. The educational side of your videos had a huge impact for me to finally start wrapping and be confident about it.. That's why a huge thank you. Greetings from Switzerland.

[@crackspider101]

Do you know what, it's so refreshing to see a presentation like this that isn't sales-pitchy. You come across as just a normal guy, who loves what they do, just so natural. I love the fact this is all done in one take, not jump cuts etc. I mean this in a nice way when I say it seems like this wasn't planned at all, just flows. I love the way you wrote mak instead of make and you just laugh about it instead of refilming, for example. It's great! I could watch your videos all day man. Keep it up and all the best for the future, from the UK x

Thanks man, this is gold. So many times you ask people, about getting started (in any industry), and they are protectionist, they flat out tell you it's a saturated industry, there's no money in it etc. Very rare to find someone so helpful and honest with this sort of information.

I live in a small apparment in the middle of a 'large' city here in Denmark, wrapping is a really small thing here, i freaking love it, anything from my Gf's pc to my PS4/Xbox, even some parts of my bike have been wrapped. I have no place to wrap my own car, a public parking garage dont seems like the best place to do it, but once i get myself a house, i will go right ahead and get started, ive been wanting to do this for over a year, watched many youtubers, started with ACW, and now i mostly watch you, so informative!! The small wraps ive done have been with cheap vinyl of Ebay, and it turned out great. i feel like I can do this!! Can't wait to get the space and place to do it! Next up is going to be my Guitar i think, never use it anyways ;D Just wanted to thank you for being so honest and straight from the heart type of guy!!

This video gave me alot of inspiration and motivation to try and start out myself! Im currently working in the NHS (National Helth Service (UK)) and with all the crippling cuts its just not worth the stress and trauma for the money working withing the NHS. So i started to wrap my car, Starting with light tints and have now got to a point where i can do it without making several cuts, so i started doing it on my family's car for more practice. Hope i can start to make a living out of this as i love wrapping things lol Thanks for the Video @CKWraps! Much love bro!

[@s13Marino]

Thankyou for another motivating video. You mentioned printing at the end, it would be nice to see a more in depth look at how printing process is done, what type of machines and processes are recommended, maybe a comparison between simple slaps vs full on fleet graphics.

Hey CK, thanks to your videos I wrapped my wife's Chevy Colorado with Avery colorshift film. Now she gets so many people in town approaching her asking if it's a wrap, where she got it done, how much it was, etc. I had a ton of fun learning and installing it, but I never thought about doing it as a job; it sounds crazyy scary going from a 9 to 5 guaranteed paycheck to working your own. Great job making something you love into a paying job man. Keep the videos coming.

[@CKWraps]

It is scary, I had a full time job paying a salary with benefits before going into Wraps full time. I remember the feeling of worry. But I had wraps as a side hustle for a long time and eventually built up enough of a portfolio and client base to keep things moving. It took over a year to feel secure in working for myself

Great presentation. I remember you from Visual Solutions. Another advertising tool would be to wrap a students car in high school and college. Instant marketing and you will be surprised how many more customers you will get. Many will save money up to just to get the wrap and many of them purchase used cars that they want to instantly upgrade. So car wraps would definitely be a great alternative for them. Keep up the good work. I think it's a wonderful industry and I wish I had taken graphic arts in school.

[@LurkMoar101]

16:50 I knew of wraps but knew nothing of the process until I stumbled across your vids around 4 years ago. Now, I'm on the fence about taking the plunge, but that's more to do with availability of quality film in my area (costs heaps to get it shipped here) but I know it's something I want to do because I enjoy it a lot. One thing I have noticed though, is that there is a rather large group of enthusiasts in the car scene who are dead against wraps as opposed to paint. So against it in fact that owners of wrapped cars are driven out of clubs and groups. Whether this is because of the quality, the colour, the 'rice', Im not sure but it happens and it's pretty depressing to someone like me who thinks of the unlimited potential with film. Regardless, Ive enjoyed your videos forever Christian, I cannot thank you enough for what you do. I wish I could show everyone your vids to see just what can be achieved.

[@TheWayne104]

[@JEFFQUICKLE9]

Wrapping can be learned and practiced on your own vehicles, but to be in business you have to know how to take cars apart and get them back together perfectly. This leaves out most all people who dream about having a shop and doing this! Also, in smaller cities and towns you are not going to have Lambo's or Audi's and so charging over $2000 for a wrap that lasts 3 years is not something somebody is going to do to their Camry or Corrolla! Yes there will be a few but not enough to earn 100K
