I wish you were close! I would have you wrap my car!
bro i live in sac i got a dodge charger rt i need some ideas,how do i contact you?
@@ptheplumbinbrotha2594 dm me on instagram
Are your films cast? Or calendar?
Great video, the color is perfect! Thank you for the tip bro✌️😁👍
in my personal experience, it is vital to use either ceramic coating or occasionally using some sort of vinyl restoration product to bring back vitality. Sun damage is definitely #1 and IF you park your wrapped vehicle in the same spot and same position every day, you risk having more damage to one side or part of the wrap and not others, creating noticeable fading or discoloration depending of the type of Wrap involved (color-changing wraps tend to change colors or go black eventually ). just a heads up for those of you without garages.
I reckon he doesn’t really wash his cars or look after them either which would greatly accelerate the decline
Correct I only wash them when I take them out which is like once every two weeks but it’s a good way to test it
@@craigc3596 his driveway is nice for that also. I used to park on the street and car would get dusted on with the cars passing by. Driveway better cause less dust
@@ParadoxTheWrapper rewrapping only the damaged parts, alone wouldn’t that not be perfectly color matched to the older wrap that’s been on for 3 years prior? I have 3m satin black and was wondering if I can just rewrap one door that got a rock chip in it alone, beside the rest that’s been on for 2 years now.
Your work has really inspired me to continue with pinstripe and wanting to do vinyl wrap. Thanks to you I believe in myself 100% and im going all in.
You've earned my thumbs up and sub. I'm not a person who comments on videos much, but I have to with this one. No matter what you charge your customers for work like this, it simply isn't enough. The level of detail and the time that you spent (days? a week?) on your own vehicle was impressive. I imagine that your paying customers get even better treatment.
Thanks for the support and comment! I always do their cars as if it was my own.
first the wrap.
second the clear wrap.
third, five coats of ceramic.
fourth, it's been nearly five years since it was done. she still looks new.
Underrated comment
Sounds like a paint artist would be a better investment
Cool!
I mean 3 years in direct light with the sun beating down on it seems like a decent amount of time
Thanks now I don’t have to watch the video lol
DANG... that's a lot of work to do every 2 or 3 years! Not to mention, you make that stuff look easy and made that car look awesome.
i wrapped the roof of my civic 4 years ago still no signs of deterioration or peeling 3M FTW
My car was done with Oracal and it's been 7 years!
What brand?
Do you park outside or in a garage?
@@johnhendy1281 Outside in the midwest. Hot summer and cold salty winters.
@@felixmcbride5448 Cool, same for me (MN). One car garage and my wife wins that one :) That's promising with respect to wrap durability!
Wrap looks sick. But I think some dope final touches would be restoring the trim and maybe wrapping the MR2 lettering on the back.
I remember when you only had a couple hundred subs, you came a long way pretty quick. Love to see it
Nice work! 😍 Just a small detail.. Use a clear vinyl to wrap the taillights and the side blinkers! It will do a use difference! 💪💪💪 It will be like out off the Toyota dealership!!! 👌😉
MR2 never looked so good, this is an amazing job in a drop dead gorgeous color. Love it!
It'll probably be more damaged on the glass as it'll retain more heat because of the thickness compared to the thin sheet metal.
These wraps remind me when I had bought my parents Oldsmobile Cutlass station wagon in a light yellow and painted it at Earl Shibe in a bright yellow which looked like a banana for $299 complete. Thanks for posting the video. I like the fast pace.
I'm Glad you brought the mr2 out for new content
wow that looks SO good.. The chicken was hilarious! I'm about to ship my car to you from Kentucky :D
YESSSSSSS thank you so much. I have been waiting for you to do the MR2 again and see how you wrapped it just so I have a good reference point so when I do it myself. Amazing color and work as always.
Thanks! I hope this helped!
4mins in and the pyjama looking pants stole the show. Nice new colour as well. Blessings to the wrap god aka Paradox
I had this problem with the roof on my Kia. The Avery vinyl I used was rated for 5 years on vertical surfaces and 3 years on horizontal surfaces. The shiny outer layer started to peel after a little over 3 years...it took 4.5 hrs to get the vinyl off the roof. But I didn't ceramic coat it, took it through car washes and parked it outside 100% of the time. In the future, I'll either peel it at the first signs of damage, or I'll sell the car before it can happen. lol
If I woke up this morning and someone said I was going to watch a guy wrap a car as his pet chicken walked across the car. I wouldn't have believed it.
my previous car had its roof wrapped in black for 7 years, just weekly washed and always have been outside. after those years the wrap still was like new, and came off the car without any problems.
Any idea what brand and material that was?
@@tickandslug sorry way to long ago :/
This guy is worth every penny he charges....great job !
Just brings older cars back to life looks amazing 😍😎
That's sweet bro all the cars I've seen you do I want to do it cuz I love to trick out my rides and my friends and I'm getting too old to do blacktop😂 this is Elvis keep up the good work bro looks awesome
Thanks!
My uncle wrapped the roof of his car car on fiber, it sits outside with the sun beating on it, it’s been 6 years still looks like it’s freshly done, no pealing or bubbles
did you mean carbon fiber wrap? Any idea which?
Any more old skool content coming brooooo 💯🙌🏽
That mr2 Deserve a nice ass paint job 🔥 in my opinion but can’t wait to see the new wrap on it 💪🏽
That's a really good looking red man. MR2 definitely sits good with this. 👍
Yeah this "cherry-apple-candy-red" color fit super nicely it really pops.. this MR2 will definitely stand out from the crowd at any cars & coffe he will go !!! 😍😍❤️❤️🔥🔥👀
Ohh.. and that floffy chicken or cock whatever it is.. LOL.. is just nuts ! 🐔🤣
Yo, the supervising chicken 😂 great job though. Looks good.
That's good to know, think I'll get mine painted, great vid bro
I'd love to see a 2-tone on this with maybe a glossy main color with matte gray/black trim.
Beautiful color & what I like about it most is that it kinda looks like a legit paint job !
I have my wrap (Avery SWF900) on my MR2 for 2,5 years now. No coating except for the occasional wax after washing, maybe once every half year.. The car always sits outside. But I think the Dutch weather isn't bad enough to damage it. It still looks great when it's washed. Looking for many years to come.
Maybe the wax helps? I never tried that on my wrap before so that’s interesting
@@ParadoxTheWrapper Could be, but honestly I think it's mostly the mild weather. Also we get less harsh sunlight beacause of being much farther North on the Earth.
Dashboards barely crack here either.
WE NEED A UPDATE ON YOUR SIDEKICKS G35
He quit the game and went and got a normal job
He got a car from you and bounce sucker lmao
Had oracal satin black on a cayman.... garaged when not driven. Lasted over 10 years driving around orange county before i sold it.
It looks like a new car 🚗 excellent craftsmanship
I would love your year MR2 in Candy Apple red with a Tesla motor swap . 😂
That looks almost like a candy red paint. Really nice color and suits that MR2 darn well.
Took a shot everytime he said potentially
This is awesome! I have a red Jeep that needs this bad! It would be awesome with this specific color too!
Handed down the 240 to my son and this will be the wrap we go with. FYI the wrap on my 300zx is over 10 years old and still looks new because it is always garaged. Wraps can last a looooooooooong time if properly protected.
Do you ceramic coat?
Am I high or did the chicken have excellent rhythm 😂😂😂 maybe both ……anyway 👍 nice job
I love your animals and how you let them chill with you while you work. Nice work too and Love that color! OMG, and your dog
First comment/like: question: have you wrap a 3500 Cummins dually before and how much if not what’s your estimate?
Hey! I have owned taxis in the Stockholm area, Sweden. We have a winter climate that is very tough for the cars with a lot of gravel and salt splash during the winter months. It has lasted well...been OK for 2-2 1/2 years, then the edges have started to loosen and the surface has faded.
Nice wrap. Personally, I would choose a nice paint job over a wrap though. I know its a higher cost up front but not having to worry about changing out a wrap every few years is worth it in my opinion.
Most people don't even keep there cars that Long. If you are wrapping your car yourself you could do it 5-7x for the price of an okay paint Job as well.
One of the best parts of wrap is you can do crazy shit w it, protect paint underneath, and maintain sellability for after you done w it. If peeled within a few years its a couple hours to reveal a perfectly preserved car underneath.
Same here
In Arizona where I live my VW GTI was indigo blue paint & the paint last three years. The entire car body have faded paint everywhere. This Vw was outside 24 hours a day no garage, A lot of bright sunny and hot weather. I do not know how long aftermarket vinyl wrap on a car body will last in Arizona???
@@brendanbenoit7645depends each manufacturer list the life of the material base on where youre located and how the vinyl will be placed. Your solid colors typically have a longer life
Really like the videos man, keep up the good work 👍🔥🔥
I have a nardo grey gloss on my car and it still looks like it did 3 years ago. It does stay in the garage tho.
paint the center of the wheels gold would pop more love the new wrap color
Awesome job..even more awesome color!❤
You do a good job especially on the door handle And bumpers withour removing them.
You make it look so easy I really want to buy some of your wrap and wrap my Evo but I’m scared I’m a fuck up and then not have enough to finish😩 I already bought all the tools you use to wrap including the magnets to hold the wrap and I have the color in my cart on your Website I’m just procrastinating
Just use my guide on how to cut out each panel. You can do it!
if you bought all the tools then you're already in it, backing out now would be a waste, better to mess up then buy everything and never try, if you want practice start with your hood, most car hoods are one piece and you can lift it up so you can strech under so it's very easy
That is 🔥 man. Your work is always dope as hell. 🤘🏾
Great work i have been inspired to do my f150 now thanks i always loved doing my own projects nothing more satisfying than ones owe work
Paradox my man! Hope you doing well! Car looks KILLER.
So in other words, if your car resembles a vehicle freshly pulled from the bone yard, slap a sticker on it.
Looks amazing, only the gloss reflection on the wrap looks orange peely, but nice!
I love it how long does a cat this size actually take start to finish roughly looks great 😊
Awesome job on the new wrap! What was the video sped up to? Curious how many hours it took to wrap.
Damn bro, the way you be hitting them poses on yo thumbnail is something else. U the man.
Lol thanks it takes me a long time and lots of tries to get just the right pose lol
It got damaged more on the window probably because class is an insulator. The roof is metal, so it'd spread that heat to every other metal piece and keep the wrap generally a lot cooler im guessing.
Beautiful! I miss my MR2 😢
wow what a transformation! Looks incredible!
A big fan from the Philippines ❤️❤️❤️ it's easy to see but it's hard to do,great job.
Jeez about how long did this job take you and also it look freaking awesome just found your channel and def subscribing
Hey man love the video! My 2001 BMW e46 has the same wrap! 3M Cherry Rose Red😎
Man, this cherry red is sick bro
i can say my expirience but from lets say 20 years before.. i work on an advertisment company we use to cover delivery trucks and busses...we had several vinils that we used and they where from 3 year 5 year and 7 year life span we had even worst than them but they where for other uses it was all depend on how clean was the surface the temperature of place and vihecle and ofcorce the type of vinil.... so the 3 year span is not bad but if things not changed there must be a 7 year and 5 year life span of vinils out there...the cost is rising though and for sure how you treat your car does have a role in the longlivity of the material ....that was my expirience back then
That color wrap would look great on a lowrider! Luna looks huge! Good doggy! 🐕 🐶
Midnight purple
I kinda want to!
Damn that cherry red is poppin! 🍒
straight to the point. got the answer to how long it lasts within 1 min
impressive for a 'hands on job' literally !!
RESPECT
Akatsuki cloak in end, NICE!
Love the MR2 and the color but only thing I'd ask you is to change the exhaust set up u have.
You are the Best wrapper paradox
Looks way better. Tail light and rear MR2 badge still sucks. I like blue. Wonder if they make a "blue candy metallic" in the same metallic like this red.
You can paint using clear coat.
I live on the shadow of old school wet type cement refinery,it destroys everything in about 2 years even if garagaged,but as paradox says a wrap v repaint price,rewrap wins every time
Auto text...always fun 🤨
You out did yourself on this one amazing we’re just putting a sticker on your car before you make a permanent decision on what your color choice is going to be on your🧩 masterpiece🧩💪🏼🎥🔥💯🏴☠️🏁
This dude is the only thing not wrapped in this video.
Man I love this car
Compliments set you're fantastic..... Very good work.
Happy New Year Bro!😀😎👍✊
Hey just a quick question do car cover scratch the wrap if so, what kind of car cover should I be buying ?
Awesome man. Do some treatment for plastic parts as well.
Hey, have you ever thought about owning a E46? I prefer the 330Ci coupe. It looks like you could have one in your collection and the car fits your image and lifestyle.
I was so focused on the wrapping job that 13min in and I didn't even notice the chicken haha
Even the dog couldn't keep his eyes away from the car
Ayyy but for real, what kind of sunglasses are those?
You’re a fucking magician man with that wrap 👌🏿
Lol thanks!
how do you wash the car if it gets dirty? Soap and water? Special car wash? Salt snow does it damage the wrap? Cold weather damages wrap?
Broo loving that RAM on the back
Newer still looks sick an amazing
MR2 is 🔥
Maybe put some ceramic coating on the rear molding? Think it's what Chrisfix does. Looking a little crusty.
This is the first time I ever seen you wrap the mirror
The music you use is nice. I be freestylin while u wrap. I can’t even rap but the instrumentals be so hard
Dope! Make a video of you freestyling to the Paradox beats and tag me on instagram @paradoxstyling I’ll repost that!
@@ParadoxTheWrapper 😂 never going to embarrass myself like that. 😂 I’m not a island boy
MR2 is my favorite car🥰
nice job, how scratch proof are these wrap?
Wow OG mr2 design is just so good
Would love to see it in Candy Metallic Green or Glossy Mamba Green. Then with some carbon fiber vinyl trims
