Finally someone goes right to the point thanks a lot

[@adobomoto]

Good luck man! Hope it helps you out!!

[@quienmas5746]

@@adobomoto it really did cuz my problem was the edges and the stability to put it so leaving the fairings on the bike 1st makes a lot of sense now😂😂

[@adobomoto]

quien mas awesome man! There’s other ways to stabilize the fairings when you have them off. Just didn’t show it because i feel like this video took forever to film. I think i’ll do that for the panigale. Show how to wrap the fairings off the bike and show how i mount the fairings onto some diy pvc or the bottom of an end table to keep em stable.

[@remotexpolde]

Dude, Thank you for this. This is all awesome stuff. * One thing about the Backing..( at least what I do as I do this on my own..), I keep all the backing and when needed, tape it down to a table. This way I can set whatever I'm working on down and not have it pick up all the junk-dust, etc.. and also not have it stick to anything. Just make damn-sure you have the proper side up! Lol.. ( Learned that the irritating way). It's not necessary, but it sure helps if you're in the middle of something and you have to shoo a moose off of the UFO you're building. ...erm, i mean.. car. . . (fail).

Just depends on the thickness of vinyl you’re using. Mine goes to about 400 degrees or so but it’s just also how you use the gun. If u need instant heat, then just keep it high

@@adobomoto so 2 questions: 1) I'm gonna wrap only that lower right side fairing, like at 31:17, how much vinyl wrap will i need 2) and also, there's a deep scratch on the fairing, will vinyl stick to deep scratches? will it still show any scratches? and should i remove any decals that are on the fairings? i plan to use 3m 1080 gloss black vinyl and white for the other side. thanks!

Good vid just a tip when trimming dont use the middle of the blade break a new one off and use the tip. Keeps people from scratching the part. You have more control with the blade barely stuck out too since its not flimsy.
