I am 80% deaf and I heard you perfectly because you have a great voice and you speak so clearly. And I usually have trouble with North American accents! I'm looking for a line of work to get my grandson into and your method of showing us what can go wrong then correcting it, will be a great help I'm sure. I won't let him get started on a real job until he's done it perfectly on my car a few times. Thanks again!

Guys please take the time to give this gentleman a thumbs up for making this video which helps all of us. I get the feeling that the amount of material he used to show us all these techniques cannot be cheap. Show your great fullness by supporting the channel 👍

I've never vinyled anything in my entire life, but watching your videos and with your advice, I already feel like a master in wrapping cars.😂

It's also worth mentioning that when you wrap, you want to stretch the material as much as you can w/o heat, and then only add heat when needed. Too many people rely on heat to stretch the material, which results in over stretching. And by doing that, it will always want to return to normal, when re-heated by the sun.

By stretching it as much as possible w/o heat, it can't shrink itself back down later on when it gets hot, because it was never over stretched with heat in the first place.

“It’s just a rental car” 😂😂😂 smashed that like button

This video was very helpful! I’m an absolute beginner and thought I’d try wrapping my prosthetic knee and pylon in a carbon fibre wrap to match my socket. I tried wrapping areas of my knee and it was so intimidating! After watching your examples I feel confident that I can do it!

Who else wasn’t planning on spending 2-3k just for someone else to do it😂

I didn't expect myself to watch this for 25 minutes, and I was impressed to find that every minute was informative and helpful. Well done!

First time ever leaving a comment on You Tube but I was so impressed with your knowledge and teaching "tone" . Very impressed thank you.

Love your approach. You don't go around making stupid "jokes" or acting all silly. You mean business! Keep up the good work.

[HHummer]

You should return the rental car back in a different colour. ;)

Props and liked video just for saying all five things you'd cover up front.

I was gonna go to a shop to get my car (Genesis coupe) wrapped but after binge watching your channel for hours I decided to order the stuff to try at home. Only have the hood and gas cap done but im super satisfied with the results. Honestly you have the best content on YT for this stuff. Camera work is top notch and that's one of the most important parts

[nickmonastirsky]

Dude the video title says 5 things and you start off listing the 5 things, like a well written essay or technical paper, and no annoying 4 minute intro or annoying clickbait. You sir are a gentleman and I appreciate your contributions, thank you!

[completedailydrifters]

I tried to vinyl my miata fuel lid just to see how i'd do, Defiantly did some of these mistakes! Thanks for the video!

[Racingboom]

It’s always so insane to me how he can lift *multiple times*

And he never gets bubbles or under film contamination.

You wrap guys really are just built different.
