Can I ask how long it took you to learn how to rap I really want to learn ? Joey from Honolulu , Hawaii

[@ParadoxTheWrapper]

Aloha my brotha! Love the islands. I normally vaca in Kauai! I started learning how to wrap by watching videos in late 2017. Go to my first vids you can watch my try to wrap my first time with cheap EBay wrap 😂

wow man, that thing is gorgeous! really sweet job

[@ParadoxTheWrapper]

Thanks!

Hello from the 916! Nice job on the wrap 👍👌

[@Saurabhsawant44]

Nicely done bro❤👍👌

[@grimson]

Awesome! Get that baby on coilovers and drop it a couple of inches and you've got one hell of a show stopper. My SW20 was the first car I wrapped, and I think if you can handle an SW, with all its curves and swoops (and that back bumper), most other cars would be much easier.

[@nicholassanjayowo8955]

Definitely get rid of that wheel gap at least.

[@fadyviggo5244]

Wow! Great job

[@maldo72]

How much was the material and where did you buy it from

[@firstwordcar]

1000th like 👍🏼 Haha looks good. Thinking about wrapping my mr2 in the future and you provide with me inspiration and encouragement 🤘🏼

[@relvybz]

Great work man! I was wondering what brand of ceramic coating product did you use and is it specific for vinyl? Thanks for your time

[@jimmyfavereau]

Great Job young man.. there is Nothing that you can not do... if you apply yourself.. you are limitless.. test it!!! :D

Thanks for the support! 🙏

[@turbyturbo1]

beautiful wrap bro

[@MrTibbz83]

what grit do you sand the car down to? Like what grit do you have to get to so its not visible with bondo repair?

[@cmarcrum25]

awesome transition.

[@lucaskoukouvaos2589]

Great work with the wrap. Constructive criticism on the video editing is the time-lapse audio volume was extremely louder than when you were talking with your voice. Might want to even that out in the future.

[@RCheRays]

I want my MR2 wrapped fully stock with the t-bar.. one ding on the passenger side cargo not even 1/8" deep. any business?

[@ParadoxTheWrapper]

Richi Rays DM me on Instagram @paradoxstyling

[@WeSeeThunder]

You make the rear bumper look so easy. It's the only part I'm struggling on 😑

[@swagvids2911]

Have to ask. After you sanded. Did u spay anything to the metal or sanded paint before wrapping? What was grit right before wrapping?

[@sinistercharger]

Can you wrap a sanded prepped Car? I sanded my Car because I was originally going to paint it but then decided to go down the vinyl Wrap Route. I then saw online that your paintwork has to be very good to get good adhesion from the wrap,so I have now been put off.I also have a couple of areas that I used Bondo on

[@DrakeMR2]

damn you do a hell of a job, where do you live lol want this done to my cars

[@edwardsalamanca9110]

hey man I'm located in the bay, i have an audi a4 b5 that needs to be wrapped. what do you charge?

[@ParadoxTheWrapper]

Edward Salamanca nice! DM me on Instagram @paradoxstyling and we’ll work out the details

[@ry2322]

Super clean work! Did you do the door panels? If so, Is it 1 piece with the door cut out or do you cut out a separate piece ?

[@chevychris3227]

What color is it from teckwrap? Came out really good 👌

[@tk2tone883]

Thats sick fam! Great Job I love the color, made the car current again. I was wondering if I was to attemp to wrap my car what would be the stages? How much room? Temp? Tools? Wraps brands you prefer? Thank you

[@ParadoxTheWrapper]

tk 2tone gotta sand and do body work before wrapping. You just need a clean space in the shade free fork wind contaminants. Just need a heat gun, knifeless tape, knife, squeegee, your hands and lots of patience. Best way is to just try it yourself and learn as you go.

[@tk2tone883]

@@ParadoxTheWrapper Thanks fam. Ya my older brother has a body shop, I more do mechanics and electrical on our cars. I never got into painting bc of smells with consideration of others and surroudings. Im thinking about giving wrapping a try. if you can break down some steps you take before u rap ur next project that would be appreciated. Thanks

[@ParadoxTheWrapper]

Sure thing! You basically wipe any area the wrap will touch down with a 50/50 mix of water and 70% alcohol, Clay bar, wipe again with micro fiber and it’s ready. As long as there’s no pealing paint ur good! I wrap because I’m too poor to build a paintbooth. Also I can’t control myself and would make paint run

[@MegaShowtime2012]

@@ParadoxTheWrapper thanks mate, what is the name of your 3000gt wrap? Can't see black chrome

[@ParadoxTheWrapper]

The black chrome is from a random Chinese company that reached out for me. Teckwrap has removed their reflective chrome line and is reworking the formula. I got this stuff super cheap. Kinda tough to work and I can’t guarantee it won’t mess up your paint but hey since my paint is already toast, I don’t really care. $260 something for a whole roll of black chrome I gave it a try. DM me on Instagram @paradoxstyling and I can link you to that source lol

[@HuckitMedia]

What size of a wrap sheet did u use for the roof and pillars being connected?

[@ParadoxTheWrapper]

Huck-it Media I think it ended up being almost 8 feet long to go from the front windshield to the back if you wanted to do it in one piece. One good thing is that you can use the front windshield cut out to do the trunk.

[@ParadoxTheWrapper]

I’ll show you in detail in the next walk around video soon as it stops raining

[@HuckitMedia]

Awesome so a 5 by 8 sheet?

[@ParadoxTheWrapper]

I would take a tape measure to it and give yourself two extra inches at each end

[@brentdaceo7180]

Would you be interested in trading that Mr2 for a 06 mini cooper supercharge JCW checkmate?

[@donaldjohnson4570]

Are you using Vvivid vinyl? And how is it holding up sticking to the parts you sanded down because im in the same delimma? The edges of my 5 year old paint is chipping and I sanded it down and was wondering do I need to put a clear coat on the parts before laying the vinyl or just wrap over the sanded and primered areas.

[@ParadoxTheWrapper]

Donald Johnson watch my other videos

[@donaldjohnson4570]

@@ParadoxTheWrapper Cool!! Iwatched several of them. I wanted to know what is the final grit you are using before wrapping eg. 1200, 2000, 3000. and if you prep with rapid tac or alcohol. The are the questions I have that no one else on YT is explaining. By far you are the only one who wraps cars consistenly with car needing a lot of body work.

nice

[@Nperez1986]

Its great and all...but overtime it's going to fade and have to be redone. It does look amazing! However For the amount of work you did in fixing the dents you could have painted the car, which a proper job could last the rest of its life. .

[@ParadoxTheWrapper]

Nperez1986 yeah but why would I want just one color forever? Painting also would cost me a crap ton more money and I don’t have the equipment to do it myself. Also it lasts 4 years if I wanted it to...

[@Nperez1986]

@@ParadoxTheWrapper I understand, but time is something no one can buy. What you do with your time on Earth is up to you; you'll see as you grow, a job worth doing i worth doing right and cutting corners will only equate to more of your time taken up.

(You can paint cheaper than you think) I've had friend wrap their cars with the Anime stuff and over time it has to come off...It's sort of like the plasti dip era...it's not going to last
