I'm disappointed you didn't end the video with saying "That's a wrap guys.".
It looks sweet. Going to have my A8 wrapped soon.
good point!
Wrap installation looks paint-stacking
He did say rap was controversial.
This looks beyond difficult. I can't even believe you don't get a least one bubble. Hats off to you for your skill and patience.
VIDEOHEREBOB its also got a lot to do with the quality of material used
Ryan Ng Yes, I see. Thanks. I'd never have enough patience..lol
well the films we use for this sort of application now are known as - pressure activated adhesive with air release channels- Definately alot easier to work with, the channels allow the air to flow out from under the film, the higher quality films are almost perfet once post heated, and the pressure activated adhessive allows you to slide the film and lift and move it around as you saw CK Wraps do.
@@matthewroderique7468 Thank you for your reply.
VIDEOHEREBOB that’s because he is the best in the business
I could imagine trying to do this myself and getting pissed off within 10 minutes.
Couldn’t have said that better
Took me 3 minutes.
Straight Six I tried wrapping my side view mirror and that shit took an hour
First thing I thought when I watched and then came down to see if someone commented on this frustrating process just to give a car a new look. My question is how much does someone charge to wrap a car out the door? e.g. Something like standard sedan like Accord, Fusion, Camry, Sonata ?
Same
"If you don't like it just rip it off!"
Yeah, my wallet really likes that idea -_-
exactly. they want very high cost... guess they think everyone is made of money, especially to spend so much on a depreciating asset in most cases.
@@MommaBearsCorner I think you missed the point. Wrapping is cheaper compared to a repaint. When you end up not liking the wrap is is way easier to go back to the original colour compared to a repaint. You can just remove the wrap instead of having to paint the car again
@@MommaBearsCorner cars are almost always a depreciating asset
@@Rick-bc2ds wow, that's a lot. Here you cab wrap you car for 1000 euro, but the more you pay the better the wrapping job
@@Rick-bc2ds That's if you have a shop do it... If you do it yourself, it becomes much less expensive, especially compared to painting it yourself. (and with a higher margin of error compared to painting it yourself, since you can go back and fix it if you mess it up)
AMMO and CK Wraps in one video!? LIfe goal achieved.
Masters of auto detailing and wrap.
Massive respect for Christian; I tried vinyl wrapping a bike gas tank once. Never again.
Hey guys, wanted to leave a few notes.
1. The camera makes the wrap look a different color than in person. Its more gray in person. Not sure why it looks so blue on film?
2. The price of wraps vary based on size of the car, intricacy of the body shape, type of material (chrome/patterns/just color), and how much of the car is going to be disassembled, and if its a full wrap or just the side of a work van, for example. Most wraps cost between $800 up to $6,000. So discuss the variables with your installer.
3. After 2 weeks, the wrap still looks brand new and I have no complaints. This video was about the "process", so I (we) could understand more about what it takes to install and decide if its something we would want on our cars or not.
4. You can do everything (almost) you would do to uncovered paint, including light light compound/polishing. (More videos to come)
5. Maintenance is exactly the same as uncovered paint. (Again, video coming)
6. And remember, this can be removed in 30 minutes. So it was a fun experiment and video series.
Hope you find this video as interesting as I did when I watched him work and explain his techniques. Thx for watching as always!
AMMO NYC
Congratulations on the collaboration I followed both of you for quite some time seeing you both work together create some great content and learning experience I work in a vinyl shop I know how hard it is to work with sometimes looking forward to seeing you work together again
AMMO NYC To get a good wrap is it necessary to dismantle the car or no? I would rather leave everything on except the spoiler
The bluer look could be due uncalibrated monitors. Uncalibrated TVs almost always have a blue push, as it makes the image appear brighter. I assume an uncalibrated LED monitor would do the same.
Where can I buy the vinyl from?
Enzo Ardente yes, to get complete coverage it helps tremendously to remove as much as possible. It also makes wrapping much easier since you won't need to work around awkward parts
Your one of the best producers of videos in the "car" community. Very well done. lots of information and fun to watch.
You're *
I think chrisfix has FAR better quality videos. He is a god and is currently the largest automotive youtuber.
@@trippripp6398 He said, "one", of the best. Not the best, Huckleberry..
Been waiting for this! So glad the 2 of you were able to make it happen, Christian and yourself are 2 of the hardest working, detail oriented ppl on the planet. Car looks awesome Larry!
"Hunny i need to buy some new coils for the R8"
"Why is that..?"
"Stock ride height makes the color look weird"
...seems legit
I straight loled at that. At work. On a concall. Wasn't muted...
Christian is a guru. He is the sole reason I attempted to wrap my car myself after watching a tonne of his tutorials, and the reason it came out looking decent. Absolute legend that man is.
Two immensely talented professionals, who you can tell love what they do. My two favorite channels on here and huge inspirations. Thanks for an awesome video as always.
I've been watching Christian for over a year and I was do happy to see my favourite wrap guy collaborate with my favourite detailer ❤️ I'm dreaming
Man that's a crazy amount of work that goes into that. That's some serious skill. He would have made a great surgeon.
Cool thing is he makes way more money than a surgeon.
@@SizzelRizzel There's no way you could know that.
Surgery might be easier.
I would have painted it a baller color and call it done. Or wrap a cheaper car haha.
My goodness. That was fantastic. I absolutely love the end result. Very classy install and truthfully I’d expect nothing less from either of you. Glad to see two awesome dudes and extremely hard workers collaborating. Very cool
I love watching your videos. No corners cut, everything done right, the first time... I have a whole new appreciation for the art of the wrap now!
Ammo and CK Wraps together. Awesome. Christian seems a great guy. Amazing wrapper too.
Awesome video.
Love the AMMO logo under the wrap. Nice subtle touch!
Jason Langevin 😂
Lol Justin is Here
@@livebig6414 ⁰
Your videos are an inspiration to a detailer like myself, I learn more in one video from you than 100 from anyone else! Keep up the great work!
I have utmost respect for the guys to who this work to a high standard. It would drive me insane after half an hour of trying, and guys like Christian here must have amazing patience and skill.
I never like videos. But I liked this one. Wanna know why? It’s simply because I see no other YT channels so humble such as you in this video. Congratulations, man. Really nice the way you talked about the wrapper. 1+ sub!
Agree! Also have been noticing Larry becoming (trying to say this respectfully) less OCD lately, taking a more relaxed approach and keeping the fun in what is still a lot of work, but without obsessing over details that stir an observable agitation within. Hey, we all seek perfection but also have accept real world limitations (time, money, materials and effort) if the job is to get done. With that in mind... off now to do some of my own today.
Just watching this is testing my brain lol. This is so technical/detailed and a work of art. Hats off to these guys for their work!
Fantastic and so entertaining. I really enjoyed seeing how this process was done by a PROFESSIONAL. I can ONLY imagine all the ppl out in the world doing wraps and how BAD they are and charging a LOT of money for it. This here is TOP NOTCH! I wish all people in the service industry (not just cars) would take this much pride in what they do. Kudos to Chris and thanks Larry for another great video.
Christian from CK Wraps is an absolute guru in the wrapping game. Been following his channel for about 2 years now and he still amazes me.
BEAUTIFUL JOB.
LOOKS AMAZING. THANKS FOR SHARING.
Best video for people like me who want to wrap their car by themselves. All my opened questions are answered in this video, thanks!
xAlin Alin where do I buy wraps that size though ? All I can find on Amazon are small rolls
Jose Leon it depends what you looking for. Rolls are 152cm wide and depending of car from 15m long. If you look for something temporar then aliexpres or alibaba is good(up to 200$ a roll but I would not leave it more then 6 months on the car) . If you want something high quality (what go up to 1000$) you should Google it in your country for Avery or 3M wrap.
FANTASTIC COLAB! Christian is a true artist and seems to be a really genuine guy. I've watched many of his vlogs and he really is one of the very best in the industry. Not at editing vlogs mind haha! So it's great to see him appear on yours Larry. All the best to both of you.
Makes me all warm and fuzzy inside as a wrap installer, seeing my favorite youtube detailer appreciate wraps at this level. Thoroughly enjoyed the vid, and definitely worth sharing to my clients for years to come
Love the AMMO decals under the wrap, nice and subtle.
One of the most impressive RUclips vids I’ve watched. That man is crazy talented!! Well done!
in not feeling the gray color on my car, lets wrap it in gray!
wtf
AMAZING!!! BOTH OF YOU GUYS ARE MY IDOLS AND TO SEE THIS COLLAB IS SURREAL.
You 3 are my idols! Well, including Premium Auto Styling
Wow, to get Larry and Christian in one video is a special treat. You are both gurus. I bow to you.
Wrap guys are another breed if they are the good ones work ethic out of the world
These videos are pure bliss.
Larry you are one of a kind human on this earth. and i like how you meet special people everytime and give them to run the show.
love your videos, and your job. you motivate me !
Two of the best car guys on RUclips! Love this video as it was super awesome to see the both of you work together. Wow! CK Wraps is a wrap GOD. My goodness, so much patience and skill. I could watch this guy wrap a car all day. Lol. Just like I could watch you detail cars all day. Lol. Amazing video just like every one of your vids but this was off the charts awesome.
Great job Larry & CK you both are phenomenal at what you do
That's awesome , thinking to wrap my 911 turbo over the winter time. :-) GREAT VIDEO!
That color is amazing, suits the R8 well! Awesome to see CK Wraps on this channel!
Amazing to see you two work together!! I've been following both for years now.
I remember one video of Larry's I asked if you can install a wrap over a clear bra and got so many answers of people saying no and that it wouldn't stick. Obviously they were not installers themselves because you can see at 12:24 that vinyl can go over clear bras. Thanks youtube pros.
in not feeling the gray color on my car, lets wrap it in gray!
wtf
LMAO
My exact thought
💀
Man I can't deny that Christian has some high amount of patience and skill to do the work he did here - body lines on an R8 are definitely tough. The AMMO logo under the wrap was a really cool and subtle touch too. Well done.
Team Brahma Larry was being modest, it was mostly his idea. I only showed him what embossing was
As a vehicle wrapper myself I'm forever watching videos on the subject and seeing people do it wrong, was nice to see someone that actually knows how to do everything perfectly correct with real passion for the craft! nice job guys - and you're right needs the patients of a monk 😂
I can't put clingfilm on my sandwiches properly...... I'll give it a miss!
Super talented guy! Amazing job 👍
My 15 Mustang GT was black from factory, huge pain in ass to keep looking fresh. So I had it wrapped Satin Pearl White and let me tell you, I turned down the idea many times due to cost, but wow was it worth every penny. The vinyl is so durable, makes it SO easy to clean. I even went ahead and ceramic coated the wrap as well. Literally just a power washer and my car is clean, no need for soap, it's amazing. Drying takes no time as well.
HIGHLY recommend wrap if anyone has been on the fence about it.
Love how you present and I love how natural you are. Not overproduced but perfect. Also at 01:00 DAMN this is so pleasing. Vinyl on vinyl.
Christian's videos taught me how to wrap my aston over the winter, love this collab!
YESSS! Love Nardo Grey!
The amount of work and dedication in each video you post... Thanks Larry
I watch his videos all the time. He's inspired me to wrap my car and I just would tell him about that burn mark "don't sweat man you're still 💯
I follow both of you, awesome to see a colab. Also, the R8 is so damn sexy!
Like it before watching it. As usual...
You're lucky you got CK to help you wrap your car. Hes one of the best in the entire planet earth
He wrapped my e63 and it’s perfection to a T. First hand experience
Dont believe all the hype
i used to do vinyl wrapping for my friends back in high school. but this, dry application technique? I'm speechless 👏🏻
Awesome !
This was amazing ! Great work
I gotta thank CK wraps for the videos. Watch for weeks before trying it out on my car!
i really don´t care what it is, but i think it is awesome to see people working and liking their work, because they bring so much thought into the whole process and they just create awesome things, which not many people could actually do, in such high quaility. even the easiest steps can look like science, because of the speed, perfection and the thought process going into it.
love it!
Could have wrapped it in a nice colour. Gone from boring silver to primer grey.
exactly lol, all that work to go from boring to boring
i just wanted to write that .;p
Nardo gray is sexyy. In in the process of doing my S10 the same way. Maybe not everyones taste but if we all liked the same things that would be boring
And have the car the same colour as most others out there.... Right 🤔😂
Nice wrap. I'm in Westchester and wanted to look into Wrapping my 2015 S550 with a Flat White. What is the name of the company that did your wrap? Also what did it cost you? Thanks. BTW, I also purchased your wash and wheel kit. Love it! Thanks.
CK Wraps
Christian is the man! Love his Channel. Keep up the great work guys!
These people that can put these wraps on and do a good job certainly are a breed a part. Got to hand it to them this is very intricate and time consuming work. I’m sure just about anyone can learn how to do this with time and experience but in order to keep it up and consistently do a good job wrapping customers vehicles takes a special person. I’m glad you’re happy with your wrap, I personally think it improves the appearance of your vehicle.
Greatest RUclips crossover ever.
Too Funny I just wrapped my R8 (Stradmans old R8) in the exact same color from Vvivid lol Good Video Man.
The Car Review Guys I had to go to the comments to see if anyone said anything and behold the guy himself said something 😂
@@damionmonaghan3139 I just found this video yesterday haha
The Car Review Guys Weird question, I live in Madisonville ky and next year I’m moving to bowling green to go to wku anything I need to know about the town? 😂
The Car Review Guys ps I’m a fan and I’m waiting for your channel to blow up 😂
@@damionmonaghan3139 appreciate it !
Killer video. DUDE! I love the way your R8 looks with the new color and wheels and suspension. Looks like a work of art!
Love it, can't wait for wrapped detailing videos and to see how AMMO works on wrapped cars. Best colour Larry, kudos!
I'm gonna go dismantle my car and clean the crap out of it now...
When is Reflex being restocked?
Soon...working on some amazing stuff
AMMO NYC great! Can't wait!
Please don't ever stop posting your videos man - I enjoy watching every single episode!
I feel for christian sooo much on that hood, hes so transparent, why i consider him a master.
And that’s a wrap!
This makes me want to wrap my car and see how it comes out.. hmm 🤔
EdVentures
No you don't. Seriously. Ok maybe if it's a Volvo 245 or similar 😝😄
Love the ghost Ammo on the back. Did that to my truck with the Silverado across the tail light, and then my moms company logo across the hood. Came out really good. Thanks for the video Larry! She owns a sign shop and primarily does vehicle wraps so it's cool to see how others do it and will be showing her employees some of these tools in this video that will help us out a lot.
Both you guys are pretty much my fave watches at the moment, learnt so much from you both and didn't even realise until this morning you'd worked together lol, ck made a fantastic job of your R8 ammo such an awesome treat to see a vid from you both 👌👍😁
The part where he uses the WrapStick to tuck the edge, and THEN, when he slices the excess?! Oh my god, I need a cigarette. Forget it. And don't think for one second I didn't admire Larry swoppin' around that fatass detail brush, just Picasso'ing the INSIDE of the bumpers?! This video is out of control.
This is how to wrap a car professionally. I hope all those who think Yiannimize is the best take a look at how many steps he and his workers miss in prepping a car compared to this!
ianmedium Christian is good but the guys at Yiannimize also does the same steps as CK. They don't necessarily show it on every video. No need to talk down on the guys there.
Yiannimize doesn't do toutorial videos so the steps aren't shown as in-depth as this. They pretty much do as good as a job, if not better, because of the manpower
Ya I wouldn't say Yiannimize doesn't take these steps. They just don't show much prep in the videos. I'm sure they wouldn't be dealing with continuous high end customers if they didn't take the proper necessary steps when it comes to vehicle wrapping.
SO TRUE. Literally 90% of wraps are utter shit. You should even clay bar a car to ensure it is dead flat before wrapping. THIS guy shows how an actual quality wrap is done. It is painstaking.
Yiannimize shows car wrapping, not how to wrap a car
Another great video Larry, you and Christian did a amazing job.
One of the better looking R8’s I’ve seen. I usually don’t find wraps fashionable but this was spectacular.
"If you don't like it, you can just rip it off"
NOT IF I DON'T WANT TO WASTE $5,000 lol
mugdays my dad worked a Porsche and someone had got a 911 turbo and got a wrap and ripped it off 2 weeks later, 10-15 grand down the drain if not more
People do pay this mich to get their car wrapped? The Material ist At the very lost like 500 and experiecened duded wohnt take more then to days , making this 2k a day so like 200/h if you already have the tools:
Wtf
Beyond the $$ cost, the Car is also out of commission for AT LEAST two days. Three in this case. 🥴
How much did all that wrap cost?
Issa Nesheiwat full quality installation is anything from £1000 for a smart car to £10000 for a larger more difficult job. Labour included, not just the material cost obviously.
Issa Nesheiwat yes it can range normally from partial wrap about $800 to full coverage including door shoots and returns in high cost finishes such as chrome for over $10,000
Another top notch video on "how to" with great subject matter (R8) and even better results in the almost-finished product. Looking good, Larry!
this is a great job and the advice's are priceless. all my respect for your work and the effort behind the video editing.Keep up the good work.
I dare you to wrap a Ferrari 512tr
Done a few ferraris, Pain in the ass !! vadly fitted panels on everyone, Mercs are way better
matthew roderique look at a picture of the 512tr and you’ll understand what I’m saying
that would actally be quite easy, flatish panels every where,
It boggles the mind why the owner of the vehicle decided to go from gray to slighty darker gray. This video would have been nicer to watch if the colour was something totally different, or at least interesting to look at.
Chrystler grey to nardo grey is a huge jump. Nardo is 10000x better and ended up looking amazing on that r8!
I think it is awesome that you and Christian did a colab together. My favorite wrap master and favorite detailer working together. I have learned so much from both of you guys and both of you have givin me the confidence to take on diy paint correction and I plan on attempting to wrap my 7 series with a buddy this fall. Both of you are awesome at what you do and I really appreciate the knowledge shared. To both of you I say thank you.
chris is very faaaar from wrap master. saw plenty of shit from him online that made a lot of wrappers laugh. yes.. he is probably the only one who posts as many how to wrap videos but master? yeah... i don't think so. He moved from miami because a bunch of his work failed. And the funniest shit was when he was playing stupid, talking about himself in 3rd person like he had nothing to do with the shit he posted online. Most of us were confused af. he was probably high or something.
CSOCSO If Christian is as shit as you say he is at wrapping cars then Larry wouldn't have had him do work on his car. Larry isn't a fool. He does his homework and I am sure he didn't pull Christian's name out of a hat.
Been a few months since I stopped by the channel. Congrats on the R8! Amazing content as usual!
Thank you for this video, i have been looking forward to it for over a year. Something I definitely plan on learning and applying someday.
Two of my favorites working together. Awesome!
Started tapping my hands on my desk like a child thats seen food when i saw the finished product at the end. Phenomenal!!
One of the best detailers + wrappers = great video.
I am Omar from Algeria. I have 8 years of work in the field of changing the colors of cars by packaging. I want to develop my work and my hobby.
Honestly, because you're people who help with skills.
I've worked with vinyl a lot thus understand the grade of difficulty in this magnificent job. Fantastic done.
Masterful work on the mirrors. The amount of cars I've seen with everything wrapped but the mirrors, now I know why!
ayeee CK i was just watching your videos becouse im going to be wrapping my hood and roof 👌🏼
Wow , awesome work on the R8. Looks amazing , love the modifications 👍
Awesome content as always! Keeping me inspired to always up my knowledge and skills watching people this talented
Ive watched many many wrap videos and by far this is the best one!!!
Great videos. Huge respect to all them wrap techs out there 👍
