What a transformation! I used to work as a heavy diesel mechanic at a dealership, and had to redo a lot of decals on equipment that had been traded in. I always used a heat gun to help remove them, I never even thought about a steamer! Good job and thanks for the info on the steamer, wish I had known 5 years ago lol!

Looks good. Wraps are great but should never be left on until they fail like the one you had. A good quality wrap will remove easily without damage. Painting lettering is great for “old school” artistic look. Good luck.

@@allendempsey9551 yeah after this I don't think I'd ever wrap anything. Even a good quality wrap. You're going to have to do it several times over 10-year . And every time you have to remove it

2 gallons of water base DTM alkyd paint. Pretty neat stuff.

Belt sander ? It will knock that down . Won't work well with fresher wrap .

@@howardfierke8381 it just smears it. Then makes it even harder to remove. Plus you end up with all the glue. Best way is the razor blade. The steamer for the thick stuff and if it's a better quality wrap, the steamer should remove it pretty easily, but you'll still have all that glue to contend with

You won't have a single chance to build your KZbin channel because you talk too much for the little bit of relevant information that people need to know. Get to the point in short your videos.
