So what you’re saying is use pinstripes to cover the seam so it looks like you have a seamless job. Got it. 😉

Do NOT do it the way that is shown in this video. It uses too much material, and it faces the seem the wrong direction. By wrapping the middle of the hood a second time, place the the edge of the material facing the front and side of the car. That means when you view the car, you see the edge of the overlap, making the seam more noticeable. It also means that when you drive your car, to air is constantly blowing against the edge, which increases the likelihood of the edge lifting. It isn't much of a problem on a relatively flat panel, like this hood, but for a panel that actually needs a seam, it could be the difference between a quality job, and a failure.

LOL why did you wrap this hood twice?
@eli62022 жыл бұрын
Why not use a single line and overlap the two materials then cut both vinyl layers in one shot creating a but joint. Wouldn't be the same as using tri-line then stripping them in 2 passes?

this is clearly a demonstration video. everyone does things their own way and every car has different dimensions. if you have a shop wrap your car, truck or suv you're already paying 2,000$ to 8,000$ for the basic color change so why not pay for the extra steps to make sure you have seamess wrap that will last long? lets see you post a video of similiar to this one and then a year later to see how your butt joints look after heat and weather.

Whats up with the red line at the end of the video? I thought it was going to be some kind of very thin tri-stripe with a seamless look but it just looked like double stick tape and just left the red part on the top.

Why on earth did he have to put a seam there, and why did he use so much material? Minimal stretching is required to work through those contours.

Actually us normal people can it just takes time and a few mistakes. I had never wrapped anything until I bought a motorcycle that looked like every one else's. Now It is getting 3 colors. Blue Black and a red pin stripe. I have had to make butt joints but I did it differently I laid 2 pieces of finish line tape down that is why I am here watching this video to see if maybe there is a better way.

Most over rated product ever and endorsed by none other than that "useless TOOL" Justin wanna be Pate. Knifeless is a great asset for a full body commercial wrap but leaves a horrible serrated edge on a 1080 or Avery 1105 wrap that is far to often prone to premature failure.

@KaizenRacing6 жыл бұрын
Well for starters, the car will be worth a lot less if it's not covered in original paint. The whole point of wrap is it's temporary. Want grey car? you got it. Want it to be blue next year? no worries, just pull the old off and put the blue on. All the while protecting the original paint that's underneath.

Dwayne Lefler for someone who thinks so highly of themselves, you’re not giving yourself a good image with your bad grammar and spelling. Wouldn’t you rather have a rip in your vinyl than a scratch in your $500,000 car? As I said, it’s a non-destructive way of customising your car.
