Wrapping our C6 was SO HARD!!

[@adrianberryhill]

Yesssss! Hope y’all enjoy this BEEFY episode!!!!! Drop your comments/complaints/suggestions for edits here 🫡

[@GrumpyGuysGarage]

nice job on the edit. As a newer youtuber I know that's not an easy job and my videos are only 7 to 12 minutes long. The last minute or two of black screen had me wondering if there was supposed to be something more though. No big deal, understand it happens. Keep up the great work.

[@timothykeller4481]

I would just love to know. What are all the cuss words? In my 62 years, I'm always looking for something new.

[@adrianberryhill]

@@GrumpyGuysGarage haha whoops!!! I just went back and looked at my timeline. No idea why it did that, thank you for bringing to my attention! Thats never happened before. Will check from now on!

[@GrumpyGuysGarage]

@@adrianberryhillIt's all good. Glad to see it happens to the best of us. Great job anyway.

[@adrianberryhill]

@@GrumpyGuysGarage I found it!!!!! It was a piece of audio, less than one frame long, so small you couldn’t see it unless zoomed way way in on the timeline.

Awww mom is precious. Fine looking little doggy too. He wants to go for a ride.

[@brendonchase9460]

I did a bit of research, and turns out the devil created wrap!? Yip! To drive good people mad. I just want to give you guy's a big hug, for your patience and perseverance. I'm a hammer guy to and my patience has a limit. Emmy, your patience is second to none. Love you guy's 👍

[@chrisr778]

Car looks good! Great job! The "kid" is really becoming a great help! Can't wait to see what you build for her in time

[@robertbourinski8286]

In my old age I build 1/24 and 1/25 scale plastic models . Sometimes I screw up a paint job. Soaking the plastic parts in Castrol Superclean removes the paint but doesn’t harm the plastic. Also to cut down on dirt sticking to the car from static, use a fabric softener cloth inside a clean rag to wipe the car to remove any static.

[@deniseprettner2020]

Any time you can get a kid involved is a good thing. Expand their mind.

[@johnmedici6655]

I love how you and Aaron work so well together with you and your sense of humor that helps Aaron keep his frustration at bay! You were made for each day 💕

[@bobbolieu9013]

It's neat to see a material that tells us, "Play nice with me and I can do what you want me to do". In other words, treat it nice and gentle and it's pretty forgiving

[@micheltebraake7915]

You took up the challenge of wrapping without a workshop, you overcame the challenges and learned a lot.

[@chefscoty]

I must say... You two are amazing. The energy you project on your episodes.

[@toddgeeslin2190]

I love the "No Fear" attitude y'all have. You use these things as a learning experience and to teach us to take chances. If you never try, you'll never know if you can do it. Thanks for all you do. Keep up the great work!!!

[@tomhendricksen1805]

I love the fact you guys show the good, the bad, and the ugly. When I watch how its done on KZbin and then go do it, it never works as easy as they show it on KZbin. Maybe after I do it a few times it becomes easy, but the first time is a bear.

[@waynejennison5290]

Hi, Emily and Aaron, the wrap looks AWESOME! I've seen wraps done by so called professionals( insert air quotes here!) that DIDN'T look half as good as the job that you lovely people have done. Hope you enjoy yourselves on the power tour trip and use the journey to unwind and de-stress. Thank you so much for bringing a little joy into our lives with each video.

[@bradnewby5695]

After watching all the struggles I witnessed you both go through with this wrap, I can say I will never do that. Y'all did a great job and as always were very entertaining to watch.

[@danhiggins7798]

Me too. I'm going to stick to paint.. It's a lot of time spent on sanding and prep work, but once you start with the paint it goes quick.

[@1oldgoat383]

Enjoying seeing this "real" experience with the wrap .Not as easy as some had made it seem but with some practice I think most of the Flying Sparks community could get it done .

[@cheapcargarage]

It’s amazing how this has progressed. You guys were struggling so hard with the hood but now it looks like you’ve been doing it for years! Side note: If you have ever been hit real hard in the rear end while driving, you’d NEVER. Tint the brake lights.

[@danhiggins7798]

Nascar teams wrap their cars. I can't believe they go through this much trouble on a wrap. I have found that gorilla tape sticks better. The car is looking much better. Really like the color

[@K.Hgarage]

Y'all should include some wrap scraps with merch orders!

[@Veezyjung]

I love how involved The Kid is in your car shenanigans. It warms my heart to see her learnin' how to wrench. Also hooray mum's also involved. Also about getting the wrap perfect: Freiburger always said: Don't get it right, just get it running. Hot dang, this thing looks good in John Deere Green.

[@ShenanigansWrenchRepeat]

I love you and Aaron's ability to just dive into stuff you have no experience with and learn as you go. Thank you guys as always for the awesome content and inspiration! 🤘🤘🤘

[@zedlips]

Emily you are so incredibly positive, I appreciate that.

[@larrydavidson3402]

That C6 turned out pretty awesome. That car has come a long way since you bought it thanks to the two of you.

[@user-gc1zn5mn4p]

This was a GREAT educational video--to teach people to paint, not wrap. ;)

[@bobbolieu9013]

I applaud you for trimming out the door jambs and other areas. It is so disappointing when you open a door, trunk, hood and see that the work stopped at the edge of the opening. I admire a job that goes thru to the end.

[@flyingsparksgarage]

It’s not perfect but it’s pretty dang good!

[@bobbolieu9013]

@@flyingsparksgarage The car looks fantastic, even without remembering how it looked at the start. You & Aaron did some amazing work in a short time.

[@joshsos5541]

That car looks soooo much better in the green. I guarantee it was frustrating to do. I love that you show your mistakes and learning curves. We all know the wrap isn’t perfect but it will get you through your hopefully awesome trip!!

[@joshsos5541]

I definitely can’t watch this right now but I will tomorrow!! I hope it all turned out good!

[@shadetreemechanicracing22]

This car doesn't have problems. It has content.

[@robertwolfe8680]

I’m fairly handy at working on my Corvette but I don’t think that I would ever try to do a wrap. You two are doing a great job.

[@derekwalters6132]

Have to say you two took on a real ambitious project in wrapping that car, you didn’t start out wrapping something with straight flat lines you went with multiple curves. You guys notice the glue lines, the little imperfections because you know where they all lie. At the end the car’s wrapped, it’s a nice looking green and you did it yourselves with the help of mom and the kid, you don’t wrap cars for a living and it turned out awesome. Aaron said it himself he’s decided he’s gonna paint it eventually and this is just a temporary job. I say run with it, enjoy it because you did a great job. Be proud of it, and those headlights I might not have spent the money on them but that’s just me look freaking awesome. And totally loved mom’s little slip when she saw the tires, might want to keep that and insert it whenever Aaron’s at the frustrated part of a project and feels like swearing LOL. Anyway awesome job enjoy the trip

[@stephencarr2216]

I think you guys did a fantastic job wrapping your Corvette, I love the green you went with, Don’t be so critical about yourselves, You guys are a young couple working on cars mostly learning as you go, You make your videos entertaining and you also teach others that with a bit of research and whatever your abilities are, Anyone can have a go at something, If you don’t manage to do that thing, You can try again or you find someone who can do it, By trying it yourself, You have nothing to lose and if you do manage it, Then you’ll have saved yourself some money, It gives you a good feeling when you accomplish something you didn’t know you could do, So you will try something harder, Before you know it you have learnt new skills, Love to you both and happy holidays from the uk.

[@juliank911]

I'm about to start doing my first wrap too... I'm a little more concerned after watching your couple of videos but also have a better idea of what I'm getting myself into. Thanks!

[@richardcreel6282]

When using a tack cloth for the final clean, DO NOT rub it back and forth, you’re just rubbing any grime around and imbedding it in the surface. Take the cloth and run it in one direction from one edge to the other end. Lift , go back to the beginning edge and repeat. You can and should use this process on any cleaning step.

[@adrianberryhill]

Correct!

[@flyingsparksgarage]

Ope! Thanks for that!!

[@Derf1313]

Be aware, those tack cloths are paraffin based! Its difficult not to leave wax behind...

[@cvbluegrasspatriot9157]

Whoo! That looks like fun!!🥴 NO!!!!😂😂 Looks nice.😎

[@Slman51]

Emily's personality is infectious lol. And you have got to make a shirt that says that! "Less words, more work" lol

Wow, you guys can make anything work.

Awesome job guys , ordered my sweater thanks, Randy from Texas

[@elwoodsummersjr596]

GREAT video , you two are such hard working and determined people , great job , Emily is always so beautiful ❤❤❤❤

[@tim_g3478]

I’m not sure green would have been my first choice for the C6 but after seeing it completed, it is an awesome color on it. Great job Aaron and Emily!

[@MustangGuy6501]

I honestly didn't think I would like the green but i love it ol Kermit is looking great!! And Hi mom much love from Kentucky to the whole family!

[@jeffsratsrodsrebuilds1535]

That green just makes that Vette pop, you two work so well together. Another great video.

[@Buses2Bikes]

44:53 Mark : LOL! This brought back a totally messed up memory. I was swapping a steering wheel on my 1975 Nova and the same thing, I got the horn and stuff apart, and instead of using a puller, I grabbed the wheel and pulled. On the second yank it came flying off and wailed me in the face. I was dazed for a good while. When I finally got my wits back, I continued on with the swap. I get it done, go in to the house and my girlfriend and her family see me and start howling. I had a lump in the middle of my forehead and both of my eyes were black like a raccoon. But man...that chain steering wheel looked AWESOME!

[@shadvan9494]

for removing paint from plastic, i like the orange citrus paint and varnish remove from HD. it's made for wood, so it is pretty gentle. i have used it to clean up the door panels that someone sprayed with the cheap vinyl spray paint.

[@chrisstone6548]

You were asking about the plastics, VGG's apolstry guy has a cleaner, primer,paint that I saw him use. Thanks for the great content.

[@johndenicola2191]

Wishing y'all a Merry Christmas and to all who love your content! Remember no dust lines in 2024!

[@my357mags]

Next time you wrap something, spray the surface with a spray bottle with a little soap & water, lay the vinyl down, you can move it around & then squeegee it out. Give it a test, you will be amazed! I can tell you guys were stressed doing what you did! I know I would of been! Anyway good job, the car looks great! 👍

[@donaldhalls2189]

When Robby Layton did rap on a vehicle, they had plastic with foam rapped around the edge, to take the air out from under it as you lay it ,and pierce the air bubbles with a pin and blead the air out as they heat it,good job done, thanks for sharing, all the best to yous and your loved ones

[@my31and37]

That green looks fantastic!..I've been thinking about trying to wrap my '56 Vette..even with the same shade of green. Wrapping is a pain though!

Don't worry about the imperfections, she's a driver and no one should be inspecting her that closely anyway. Enjoy the drive and have fun. Looks great, love the color

Man o man I got educated. I am going to continue painting. I don't have the patience for this. But still great video. Those guys that do that for a living got my vote. Thanks again

[@rickydonahue1586]

Wow on camera the car looks amazing! I know that I would never have the patience to ever even attempt to wrap something with that many curves. You both should be proud y'all. Love and hugs from Waco.😁

Awesome job it’s definitely more work than you think 🎉🎉🎉moms awesome 😎

[@Savannahjbo]

all plastics and rubber bits are not the same , sooo maaaany diff compounds , you did right , always do a test section.. but I usually do a rag with some acetone , then brillow .. wash , dry , respray with black Trim paint or Vinyl upholstery paint .. always comes out great .. also , spray your paint into the cap , grab a QTIP , and hit them screw heads .. finishing this vid up an see the next just dropped... time for BBQ and a relaxing evenin

Is there ANYTHING" the TWO OF YOU CAN'T DO ? ? The GENIUS of ARRON is ASTOUNDING!!!!😮😮

[@moaslimes3674]

I have had a few vehicles wrapped. Watching the guy’s do it, it’s an art. They used propane torches to heat spots. Open flame on the wrap

[@patrickmitchell6631]

Nice car ,nice people .merry Christmas 🎄

[@charlesdalton985]

Once again - looks fantastic and your patience is to be admired. One small tip on tack cloth, don't use it smooth. Take it out of the package and roll/wrinkle it up. You'll actually create more surface area and get more use from it. Thank you as always ~ Chuck. P.S. - Mom was right though!

[@SgtFury2007]

Y'all have the most amazing patience! I love your vlogs!

[@c4willy]

When it comes to plastic and paint removal, I use a spray-on oven cleaner. The caustic solution will soften and remove the paint but won't attack the plastic.

[@russclewley6945]

I am so impressed you guys finished it and did not hire someone to assist you! I am exhausted just watching you.

[@grandudetonesnob7107]

After the wrap was done, i sure hope y'all took a little time to walk out back and break some stuff.. you earned it!

[@whiteskyflyer]

First video that is long I have cared to stay and watch since KZbin began. Excellent video! Thanks y’all from Missouri! We are on a build for the PPIHC with this 08 vette! The car was previously wrapped but things are changing and so is the body! This has been a huge help and encouragement for me! Thanks y’all!

I can tell how inseparable U2 are.

[@coloradoridgerunner791]

Good job on the warp! I would have thrown my hands up and probably a number of other things and thrown it in the trash, I congratulate you guys for hanging in there! It looks like it is a lot more work than painting and more time consuming. Would you ever do it again, is there any average to doing the warp like durability, getting away from clear coat issues, lifespan vs paint, etc.

Think about it like this. It was a 50ft car before you started. If you can get it to a 10ft or better you made a major difference.
