You have inspired me to do this. Just received my wrap today. Shaved my door handles last weekend. So stoked

Love it. And love the little piggy.

I just came to watch your video for tips on my 2005 spyder. I previously laced the vehicle and it looked great. I wanted to have it wrapped and was told that the paint finish wasn't good enough. I find it funny I'm watching your video and and you have a spyder sitting in the background exact year and color as mine.

Just sand it smooth and wrap it

Just what I needed to see my car has damage in the same spots and I’m about to wrap

Thanks for the informative video! The chicken was icing on the cake!

Loving this as usual

I got A 1991 Toyota Celica lift back... and the paint job is up-to-date , fully reconditioned so on so forth. This has given me an idea for my car.

I had to sand off all the bad clear coat off my bumper...learned the hard way...wrap looks great

Did you need to clear coat over it or a primer? If not did it come out good ?

Did it stick well over the base coat or did you clear it again?

Bout to start sanding down my c4 after it got hit and run, it also has many chip spots. I bought the metallic gloss midnight red from ur shop too, can’t wait to start next week.

I love seeing the 3G in the background! I had a junkyard RS, but just upgraded to a GT in much better shape. But some panels were changed and the greys are just off enough that I think paint correction will make it obvious so I'm thinking of getting her wrapped! Do you have any advice??

What sandpaper grit do you vinyl wrap over?

got an 82 mustang gt. paint is horrid on her.. however bodylines all match up.. wondering if i can get away with a wrap instead of all the body work blocking and priming that is needed thanks for the vid.

how much vinyl did it take to wrap the mr2?

This dude has an everlasting smile

Just to be on the safe side , wrap can go over primer ?

Is this worth it the sand just for a wrap for resale when youre not looking to put a ton of money in it to fix everything?

I want to wrap my car, but I have some paint chips just in one spot on two doors. If I spot fix those, would I, as a beginner, have to worry about the wrap? Both how it looks, and when I remove the wrap down the line, the paint potentially flaking off?

I have a ram truck im going to be wrapping but the hood has a lot of cracks how should i approach

Can you wrap a car hood that dont have primer on it?

cool looking miniature pony

Where do you buy your films from? Is there any price difference from what you get than what the public does? I’m only asking cause you’ve inspired me to take Wrapping Courses through 3M starting small and eventually open more to the public

Question sir. I just did exactly what you did to my trunk but my wrap looks awful!? It has this glaze to it to where I though I needed to put quick layer of gloss spray paint on it first. Do you primer the sanded parts before you wrap? I wrapped my hood that didn’t need sanded and it looks great.

@xaviersjordans2331

Whenever you primer the area you have to re-sand again to make it smooth but without sanding off all of the primer then you can wrap it and it should be a perfect finish

A bit late to the thread here. I have an issue with the hood of my 4Runner. Clear coat has flaked off in a small area behind the hood scoop and I've been told to repaint entire hood before I wrap it. One wrap shop quoted me a couple grand to sand it. What grit sandpaper should I use and do it myself?

You can’t wrap it on bondo the wrap won’t stick at all you have to deal of with primer

I hoped this worked out being 5 years ago, but if you only primered the base metal then you likely have rust by now. Primer doesn't seal anything. You have to top-coat it to keep the water out.

you need to learn the right auto language. if you are going to use a DA sander use an air compressor that can run an airpower DA sander that has a high CFM on the air compressor you need 4 or better at 90 psi and 6 or better at 40 psi. an airpower da sander runs at 90 psi and if you have a small tank it will run like a slug or just cut out all togetherr
