Vinyl wrap tips and tricks, complex wrapping. How to post heat and how it works. By @ckwraps

[@Josh-hr5mc]

Just wanted to let you know. Myself being a diy car enthusiastic in all aspects of aftermarket I watch alot of tutorials/videos. Your wrap diy videos are by far the best and most informative on KZbin without a doubt. So many KZbinrs need alot of help or have a weak delivery, bad angles, etc. So keep up the good work and keep the vids coming. You have probably helped 1000's of people including pros most likely.

[@CKWraps]

+Josh Hearn thank you, I'll keep at them. The video quality will get better soon, we have a new camera coming. All of the current videos were done using a cell phone

[@JackRR15]

I agree with ths comment. But CK Wraps may I suggest, a complete video tutorial to start off. Or more likely, a video series covering all the steps. I' currently reading the how to from Vvivid but I'm surprised there someone who did a video in that way of it on KZbin. www.vvividhq.com/how-to-wrap-a-car

You must be right, I do not have the chance to understand spoken English, but the visual helps me a lot. Too bad it has not been translated as Hexis videos ..

[@robertscottdunn]

Christian, I appreciate that you don't edit out your mistakes, you call attention to them to allow others to learn from you. I know that I will learn more from you being honest like this. Thank you for all your hard work and excellent detailed description.

[@seacoastdetailing4081]

Dude the amount of knowledge in these videos …. Love it 🤯

[@thetranspanzer3692]

The camera man is really good too. Knows how to stay steady and focused.

[@timm4930]

Excellent work , only doing a chrome delete on my car but your experience and the way you explain everything are a great help , first class !

[@rgarrett0811]

Bro... I cannot thank you enough for all of your videos. You have taught me a ton and have helped me build my confidence. Keep motivating my man

[@79Cutlas11]

Thanks for all the videos! Gave me the confidence to do my own car, came out damn good for my first time, so much much appreciation!

[@bovicious44]

GOAT right there!! Amazed at your patience and ability to logically explain things as your doing them...definitely one of the best instructors on youtube!!

[@felixlugo9109]

Amazing job as always. You should think about getting quick jack or race ramps to lift car much higher so you won't have to work on floor or be bending so much.

[@Mech.E]

Thank you for the clear instructions about post heating!

[@antonycunnington8199]

Great videos. Christian you are the wrap master

[@tommydiaz3479]

Love your videos, I was especially excited when I saw you doing a rocker panel cause that's the current project I'm doing on my ride. I really wanted to see how you handled those corners coming from the rocker panel to the wheel well but your video didn't cover that except for the statement that you put in an inlay. If you ever get a chance to show how you did the rocker panel inlay and the overlap I would love to see that. Keep wrapping, love the channel.

[@RiiLAND]

This video was exactly what I needed for my current project, thanks!

[@scottgillig908]

Christian, incredible how you wrapped the bottom. As to how critical Christian's wraps are think about this: When he's in shorts, it's warm, when he's in a tank top, it's hot, very hot. He probably can't so much as turn a fan on because it would stir up dust and contaminants. I'm willing to bet in the winter, when it get's cold, he's set up so there aren't any heating vents very close to the vehicle that he's working on. I've seen Christian's videos where his shirt is glued to him with sweat. So those are a few things to keep in mind watching Christian when he wraps. Other than that...... Ü He sure can make it look easy ! My best, Scott

[@Roadsurfer2k11]

That piece was actually easy compared to the aftermarket skirt body pieces I tried to do. Think of it as doing the shark fin but add 6 more angles. The front diffuser not only had a flat base, but also a vertical lip on the end thats 3 inches high. So we're talking like 9 different angles on 1 piece, a wrinkle/stretch nightmare. I tried 4 inlays (base, back, top of lip, each side of lip) and trashed the vinyl. Was not looking good. Painted it gloss and 100% better. I really need experience on the multiple angled pieces, they're my only crutch in wrapping cars. It would really help in just having videos wrapping those small bits.

[@davidcastillo5623]

ck your videos help me a ton! thank you

[@finedesignssignsgraphicsll3718]

Awesome work as always christian!

[@neelkanthprernaganeshutsav7357]

bro plz make a video for removing the badge and wrap a car and then how to install the badge again

[@jasonstauber5683]

Just curious… You mention focusing on areas of tension, but isn’t post heating required, especially at edges, to activate/lock in the adhesive? Just curious what your thought is here.

[@susniand]

Id like to see how you did fenders on that car.

[@reatherweathers9037]

I like your videos. Do you have any videos of wrapping trucks?

[@richhochheim7094]

I'm in the process of doing my Colorado. First time wrapping. Would love to see how you do it.

[@gregpruitt1647]

With a heavy recess, would it be a good idea to use some amount of Primer 94 in order to prevent lifting in the recess area? I can never get recess areas to remain and not lifting after a few days. I see that the key is getting the post-heat up to the right temp. NICE!

[@mhmdayyad1641]

Very helpful!❤️

[@stephenchampey9415]

You make it look ro easy

[@tgxperience]

These days I bet C would use knife-less tape for that top cut. I don't think it existed when this video came out.

[@RCbashingtheKRATON]

thanks for your tips ...appreciate this

[@zsocavarga6243]

All that for free thank you very much sir!

[@GearHeadz_Goonz_N_GSXR_s]

bro , what advice would you give to someone wanting to start doing wrapping for actual clients as i been practicing on spare motorcycle fairings and car parts , i have yet to work on anybodys vehicles yet , but i do watch all your stuff i listen to how you work things out with plan of attack and such . but any advice you can give to someone wanting to try making a go of this type of work going from a hobby to a career .. also you are a helluva teacher ..also what should my tool bag /kit consist of to get going . asa start up how much is my initial cost ...

[@trackmedixuk]

Does post heating ever run the risk of melting the plastic underneath it. For example, an interior trim peice?

[@khalidalhababi7903]

Good job

[@LateNightRituals]

Great skills n vid + the explanation. However i was wonder if u did cut on the side skirt when u did the cut in the door, from the inside. Bc there was no tape. Hows that done ?

[@CKWraps]

There is a gap between the side skirt and the car itself

[@LateNightRituals]

@@CKWraps got it, thanks. Raised the question bc i highly doubt that u'd cut on the paint

[@conceptdesigns4100]

Awsome job! What color wrap is that???

[@marcomadrigal9499]

THE BOSS

[@AlainMazy]

Instead of the 3M blue paper at the bottom, what will be the original color? or other wrap vinyl?

[@gregpartridge3943]

A ck , placing blue painter's tape helps to keep the edges down or etc. I'm interesting in knowing.

[@CKWraps]

+Greg Partridge it helps prevent you from cutting something that you shouldn't and also helps the vinyl slide off

[@gregpartridge3943]

CK Wraps awesome. I appreciate it man.

[@dan0247]

Do u get many people that want door jams done? id really like to see that done.

[@CKWraps]

+Dan 024 we'll be doing the door jambs on the next car. We'll do a video of them

[@Pseudopregnancy]

You could be a surgeon with those hands

[@Sh0wtime612]

which film did you used ?

[@jonnywayne1491]

Hey, can you show how to wrap a spoiler? :D

[@CKWraps]

+Jonny Wayne there are many different styles of spoilers. We have a video on how how to do one version

[@martinheinz9553]

Which masking tape do you use?

[@corolden]

Why do you put the car on jackstands?

[@NomadicSociety]

just wow

[@graphikptz]

film will unstick in the recess area. do you have 1-2-3 weeks photo or video?

[@CKWraps]

+graphikptz yes, the car is back in the shop for some extra stripes going on the roof. The recess area still looks perfect. Not something we need to do a video for just to prove to one person

[@CKWraps]

+graphikptz right now it's been about 3 weeks

[@TylerHartgrove]

This is the entire point of post heating.

[@fubarmofo6969]

Difference in a pro doing the work and an amateur

[@coolwrld302]

I know this video is from a while ago but what kind of gloves do you use when working with the wrap? I have tried a couple of types and they all seem to be more trouble then benefit.

[@CKWraps]

+coolwrld I use wrap gloves from Vvivid

[@coolwrld302]

Cool. Thanks for letting me know I will check them out.

[@brandonnn95]

What type of blades do you use to not scratch the paint?

[@CKWraps]

+Brandon Boisclair we use 30 degree NT Cutter blades. You're not supposed to touch the paint with the blade

[@ivanreneherreragomez367]

What is the color code? Please!!!!

[@pugs333]

Have you ever wrapped at mountain bike

[@busybody1474]

quick question, i'm having trouble post heating my interior parts evenly at 90 c/ 180 f, my infrared thermometer seems to be all over the place! i really want to do this properly, wondering if i can place the parts in an oven set to 180 f for 30 seconds or so?

[@paulharris5497]

i love your videos but that dirty floor and the squeegee laying on the ground are driving my OCD crazy

[@ohboy1492]

What color is this?

[@Dipper964]

Is it worth it doing the door jambs as well?

[@CKWraps]

+TruthStoryLies depends, I have a video on doing one door jamb

[@Dipper964]

CK Wraps funny thing is that I saw your door jamb video after posting the comment. Lol door jambs are such a pain

[@AlainMazy]

For very narrow place, I planned to use a credit card

[@ummeesnaturals2897]

masking tap purpose?

[@Roadsurfer2k11]

2 things.. he uses knife so it helps not to cut into paint. Also prevents vinyl from tacking too much to body
