Motorcycle Tank, Vinyl Wrapped - One Piece!! CB1000R

Ойын-сауық

In this video I attempt to wrap the tank of my Honda CB1000R with a single piece of Avery Dennison Brushed Titanium Vinyl.
Hopefully this will provide the incredibly soft paint on this bike with a little bit of extra protection while simultaneously making the already awesome looking bike just that little bit more custom!
Break out the sticky stuff and let's WRAP!
I'm not a professional, just a chancer with some time to kill!

    I've wrapped a lot of bike parts in my day. EX250F, MT-03, FZ-07, Sportster X, Monster 797, few Groms and others I can't remember. Most of them were my friends bikes that I had the tools to do it. So I let them use them, and helped out. I'm not a professional to any extent, but I enjoy doing it. Tanks are always the hardest part. I do have some tips tho. Invest in a actual heat gun. It makes working with the wrap so much easier. You can pick up a cheap one at Amazon or a hardware store for $20-30USD. The difference it makes is night and day. I used a hairdryer for the Ninja which has a simpler tank than the MT. Yet had a easier time with the MT cause of the heat gun. I also use what is called cold stretching. It's were you use as little of the heat gun as possible. It is more time consuming, but you have less chance of the wrap warping. You can wrap stretch with just the heat from your fingers and friction. This will rub your fingers raw if you don't wear gloves, but I like to be able to feel what the material is doing. It's kinda up to you where and when you want to use the heat gun. Weird curves, line changes or to get bubbles out is the only time I use it. Hit the whole thing with the heat gun once you're done to make sure the adhesive is activated and you're good. I watched a vid from Adobo Moto and went to town. It's a little dry, but has a lot of good info.

    Thanks for the demo, I have a 2018 cb1000 and the tank is showing its battle wounds so I’ve considered a repaint. But this looks like a great way to accomplish the same goal. I have a heat gun, the kind used for striping paint. Or in my case as a pastry chef for removing bon bons from their casting molds. But anywho, do you think it would be too aggressive for this job, or a nice upgrade from a hairdryer? Anyway great channel, I’m enjoying all the cb content. I think I’m going to get some of those sw foot pegs you installed on the cb for added comfort. They look great!

    Ideally you should’ve pre stretched the vinyl and covered the top, then as you heat the sides it shrinks back and takes away a lot of that excess you were left with. You need to hit it afterwards to about 85-90 degrees to kill the memory so a heat gun and thermometer is essential. Good effort though

    For an amateur was not too bad, actually. But, tbh, I'm curious how the edges are holding since then. 1st, brushed look vinyls can be very challenging anyway, it must be tackled carefully to keep the lines nice and not distorted. 2nd, trying do wrap in one piece a bike tank is another big challenging job. 3rd practice is a good teacher 😉 If you want my advice, for a future wrap, - place the tank on a stand, so it gives you access to work easily on the bottom, - ask a friend for help, much easy to work in 2 (3 even better) - heat the vinyl with a proper heat gun, to 50° - pre-stretch the vinyl then place it on the top and try to mold it to the shape of the tank - while you are doing this, be careful not to over-stretch the vinyl !! - heat the vinyl on the recessed areas, so the memory of the film will shrink it back to the original state ( like this you won't have so much material to work with and trying to get rid of it) - try not to over heat and keep stretching the vinyl, to avoid stretch marks and glue lines - go with the vinyl under the tank so it gives you a inner peace that won't start to peel off with time. Voila!

  • @avry87

    @avry87

    2 жыл бұрын

    And another thing, when you are heating the material to stick it in a recessed area, don't stick it from the middle, as you will put too much tension in the vinyl. Instead work it in from the lowest tension point to the highest tension point. Hope it makes sense

    Thanks. Good tips. I don’t think I’ll be doing it again in a hurry though! I did however watch on the official 3M tutorials that they recommended heating and then working from the middle of a recess outwards as this spreads the tension across the space, instead of causing it to ramp up the further you go.
