Best hood vinyl wrap video I have EVER seen on here. He didn’t need 30+ minutes, an ad in between every new subject, he didn’t BS I love it.

He has the best videos--they're to-the-point, great instructions, and NOT chaotic. I don't need videos with a ton of extra BS, I need videos where the pro just walks you through it. Christian makes it look so easy.

There is something so satisfying about seeing a professional work, he makes it look SO easy! great vid

Really one of the best instruction vids ive seen. very straight forward, no trying to be funny, nothing over the top. even the music was at a nice level.

Bought a roll of VViViD vinyl for my 2011 impala hood. Gonna wrap it today by myself for the first time. Wish me luck 🤞

Thank you Christian, I am about to wrap my Nissan Titan on VViViD ghost camo. I appreciate your help on these DIY vids. I do PPF for a living but thanks to you I feel confident I can wrap my truck just fine. 😎👊🏽

I love the Fila's Throwback and You are Simply the Best Craftsman in your field.... Amazing!

That squeegee technique 😍

Thanks for showing these video’s. You’re a master of your craft and I really appreciate what you do. Ive learned a TON over the last few years watching you.

Very professional!

Great video. Your shop is immaculate!

the best wrap video I've seen awesome bro

This was my favorite how to video out of the 30 or so I watched sir you are master of your craft ... One question though when I have wrapped before I have had heat guns melt the viynl even on low I always wondered why no one every uses a hair dryer would that not essentially work better ?

Thank you, definitely one of if not the beat how to vids ive watched. Actually will be the last. Im just gona watch this one a few times.

Great instructional video thank you

Thanks for the video brother

Hey thanks for the instruction. I am about to wrap my BMW hood this weekend in VViViD matte black. I appreciate fully detailing your techniques. Just gave me a little more confidence It won’t be a terrible experience.

Awesome tutorial as usual bro!🔑🔥🔥🙏🏾

Man, that squeegee technique is on point! 🔥

just tried this yesterday on my girls hood, mannn i fucked up bad. the wrinkles would just not go away. your squeegeeing is on point. idk how you do it!

I can wrap my own hood now thank you

Nice tecqnique I just bought myself forged carbon fiber super gloss to wrap my whole model 3 for first time.

Nice tips

i used vvivid wrap and it took me 6hours... My wrap was thick and very hard to stretch. In this video his wrap looks so soft.

Really good video bro like you coaching the coaches

Still got the tag on your rag, good thing you’re wrapping over that swirled paint

This can’t be vivid I spent 5 hours really taking my time and I’m finally ripped it off and went online and found it is the absolute hardest to deal with from almost every person. At 7:40 it shows him squeeging the buckles. On my Vivid the would instantly create hard lines if you breathed on them. Up came the film and on goes the heat gun, only to find it’s discolored now from 3 secs of heat and a little tension. Ordered Avery because the consensus is it’s the easiest to lay. I’ve also used 3m and it is a dream in comparison to vivid

Just bought 2 of the same vvidid wraps to learn on my hood

Just spent appx 3 hours on the hood of a touareg and ended up wadding it up and throwing it in the trash. The main, possibly only, problem was that the wrap was minimum 10,000x stickier than what he's working with here.

I bought some a few months ago had no problems and ordered some more sametype and design. I tell you I could not at all work it. Waisted 5x 15 ft. Still haven't tried going back to see what the problem is.

good video, I'm attempting to wrap my race car. 2 things I'm wondering. how much pressure is he applying with the squeegee and how much heat is he using?

What steps came before you sprayed that solution and laid this film? I’d love to know how/why that film was so easy for you to work with…

Could you please do a video of having a new junior wrapper to wrap a super difficult car and then you do corectiona along the way so we can learn from.the mistakea too ? Thx. 😊

Can you layer this vinyl? Put one color on top of another

Just a helpful hint: Your shirt and arms have dust and lint, so working from the inside to the outside prevents dust. Also, outside to inside, you're pushing dirt towards the center and not away. The same with top and bottom...you want to work on the top first and work your way to the bottom.

where can I find the basics on VVivid Vinyl? I purchased a small piece to start on my Bike but have no idea where to start how to prep the surface, what temp to activate the adhesive and so on?

How long can you keep vinyl on the car ?

He treats the bubbles like water almost. Very gentle. This type of skull comes from hundreds of hours of practice, failures and trials

Really need to wrap my car

Sooner or later people will realize VViViD doesn't even use their own wrap in their videos. They know its bad.

just receive my order of satin black and it totally doesnt look like the one he has. super hard and not soft as in the video and its almost not satin it looks weird . . i will try it out soon but first impression is bad

What temperature do you set the heat gun to?

Much respect to all our pros out there. I attempted to wrap my hood. Wrinkles up the a**. :(

Whar Color wrap is that Satin Black? And what brand do you prefer?

U dont have issue with vivid not sticking ? Ive used at a shop and film lifts up and becomes not sticky during the job

My vivid does not release like that, I have to use my whole body weight to get it to lift from the panel. Pulled some paint off as well during install.

What spray did you use on the video to clean the car

Where can i buy the vinyl bro?whats the best brand?thank you!

idk what type of film this guys uses but the tek r carbon from vivid DOES NOT lay as perfect as he makes it look. It bubble up as soon as I squeegee it

It’s the wraps the reason the wrinkles are disappearing so fast, avery is very easy to wrap

How much vinyl wrap do i need to wrap a full size Sedan 4-Door. It's a 2018 Kia Optima FE

Question why are all the wraps sizes small, example 19x118 inches shouldn’t they be larger to cover the car how can anyone piece them together

Which vvivid line is this? Vvivid is always difficult to work with

Would like to have seen removing the rest of the backing as the video skipped that part. Really good stuff though. Tons of useful tips

In the dozen or more videos of yours on how to wrap a hood, It's just not clear to me on how you remove the windshield washer nozzles. Do they have to be? Why do you not mention it? Do the cars you work on not have windshield washer nozzles on the hood? Mine is a '02 Lexus RX300 and the two wiper /washer nozzles are directly on the hood. Also, on my vehicle the rear spoiler is visible on all sides. I have yet to find a video of anyone wrapping a spoiler that needs to be wrapped in its entirety. I'm having a very very difficult time with all the corners and basically having the wrap go all the way around and connect.

Skillz

How long does this vinyl brand can last on a car? I’m thinking of getting satin white

Can a wrapped car go through a carwash?

Thanks, but it can't be that easy... :)

Correct me if I am wrong I used Regular VVivid and it stuck like crazy clue ,, is what you are using is the newer XPO ,, ?

I was told to apply wrap with soapy water and I did with success. Is there a reason no one is using soapy water anymore?

this is not vivid no way. and the backing paper was never shown, cuts in the video to avoid it , this gotta be avery. maybe 3m

Hey bro. How you gonna leave out the hardest step. Which in my opinion is peeling the backing off. You only showed the first corner and then you skip the rest of it…… I know what happened you caught hell didn’t you? You didn’t want show your struggle.

I wish you guys would put instructions in the box!!!! Wtf y’all.

How long did it take you to wrap that hood?
