Changing BLACK to WHITE! | Vinyl-wrapping my Monitor Arms & Prism Monitor Screen
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- Have always wanted a full white setup but white gaming monitors are SO HARD to find? Or if not, they are always ridiculously expensive..
Researched alot and the only options are to spraypaint (i can't spraypaint for goodness' sake), hand-paint it, or to vinyl wrap it. Twitch chat told me NOT to paint it, so vinyl wrap it is!
Got a few questions on how I did it, so in case you guys missed my stream on that, I kept one set of monitor arm + monitor screen for my vlog. Disclaimer: Not a professional at cutting / stickers etc so my lines are not very clean, but it works for me and i'm happy with it!

okay... so to anyone who is still thinking of doing decals on their monitor, especially for thin bezzled monitors where no tape can really stick. edge banding tape should work best. its a kind of tape that has this tiny overlap which easily covers the bezzles and sits snuggly on the monitor. the tape is strong but also easily removable if you wanna switch out colors. this will only help with the frame of the monitor and not the stand or the back of the monitor.
Thank you! Does it look better with edge banding compared to vinyl wrapping?
I recommend this on thin bezzled monitors because vinyl might not really stick on such a small awkward surfaces. the edge banding is like a tape you can loop in at least the 3 sides of your monitor depending on how the monitor is constructed. edge banding tape is thicker and matte, but it helps easily hide the thin bezzles of the monitor plus changing the overall color. you can definitely use both if you intend a full decal since the edge banding merely hides the 4 sides of the monitor.
I think it looks better because it doesn't look added at all
bless ur heart omg.
I like this a lot, It's a lot less messy and risky than using spary paint and the finishing looks better
For the monitor, yes it's safe. But the monitor arms could be easily spray painted..
Looks sooo cute. I wanna do my monitor pink but didn’t want to use paint! This is an amazing option. I’ll go through Amazon rn 😭
Thats exactly what i just did xD
It looks ass with these things lmao
thanks for posting this, very insightful! currently wanting to do the same for mine and this was very helpful in figuring out how exactly to go about it ^^
This is great! Glad to see it was quite simple to do, I was honestly worried about having to wrap the whole thing, but like you said there's no need if you can't actually see the back of your monitors! I'm switching to an all-white setup so I can't wait to do this for my monitors. :D
Love this! 100% going to wrap my monitor. Thank you for showing us how you did it!
omg thank you so much for this video!! I wish I had found it before buying my monitor clamp cause it's slowly destroying my desk... that and I want a prettier desk that really cannot handle a clamp. I saw people talking negatively about painting their monitors, so I went the clamp route, but I'm SO excited to get rid of mine and wrap my monitor!!!!
The amounr of precision is amazing
This is great! Just found this now while figuring out how to wrap my monitor in pink!
Did you ? I want to do mine
Wow.. kudos for your dexterity
Just what I was looking for. Thanks for the great tutorial!
Nicely done, I will do this to my monitor that I can't sell =D
At first I was iffy about the white monitor arm, but I started to kinda like it when I think about white with black accents.
Awesome video ! Im have my monitor open apart and im going to spray paint it to use it as a bathroom tv. With this video i can see how nice it looks as white color witch is what im looking to use on my current monitor. Thanks again!
Thanks for this, didnt really wanna do paint or sprays.
could you please link the wrap you used? ive been wanting to do this for a while
does any vinyl sticker work? I see different types of vinyl stickers like for motorcycles, cars,etc.
Hi, can you link the wrapping vinyl you used please. ❤
I have been using vinyl wrap on car body and trim parts for a few years, so watching this showed she has never worked with vinyl wrap before. All those lifted edges could be avoided if she were to use a heat gun and gently warm the vinyl, making it pull tight, and stretching it while working it into the edges with the precision edge tools.
Would the heat gun be safe to use when wrapping the monitor. The electric components wouldn't get damaged?
@@MrGAMERSVID only if you hold the heat gun in one place and intentionally damage it.
i almost painting my monitor
thank you for this tips hahahhaa
Great video, i think i'll give this a go!
Where did you get the wrapping?
Hi! I am currently building my dream gaming setup for content creation, and general gaming/usage! I have stumbled across this video, and love the look of the vinyl wrapping, and have a question. What monitor arm do you use?
I'm using Prism Arc Light Dual monitor arm
Thank you! I'm gonna follow this tutorial :D
Nice work!
This is the way.
I tried this but my vinyl sticker was too thin 😅
Thank you so much for your help :)
TY for the help
Hi! I know you've found any general vinyl wrap online but what finish did u choose? Matte, gloss or? Tysm your setup looks amazing c:
Hi, i went with matte! Thank you
where do I get the white stickers from?
where did you get the Vinyl wrap from
@jaslin tan can you provide amazon link to buy vinyl paper
Did you use a heat gun on the vinyl? Would a hair dryer work? Also do you have any advice for measuring depth? You did a great job!
I used hair dryer on my iPad using 3M vinyl.
I dont have a heat gun so I just used a hair dryer. It works too! Measuring depth wise.. maybe a flexible measuring tape might be good? Thank you!
I found ur vid,i sub and i am gonna vinyl wrap mine too like urs .mine has a very thin bezel too.Shout out from UAE ❤ more Power
It looks really good. Do you remember what vinyl wrap you used? I was thinking of doing it for my monitor too.
hi i just bought it off on carousell from a random seller, the seller was selling vinyl sticker wrap for cars, i just bought a roll of stickers
@@jaslintan936 Ah okay
Will it overheat if i cover the entire thing ?please anyone answer me i just did mine and super worried
What kind of vinyl wrap are you using for your monitors
some random vinyl sticker that I bought from a car-sticker-wrap seller.. sorry not too helpful for this but i guess any vinyl sticker works!
Good job. Smart girl ☺👍
Would it be more efficient if a heating device might be used? Efficient in the meaning of a clean applying without bubbles. :)
Yes definitely. I didnt have a heating device so i just used my hair dryer
Hey is it possible to vinyl wrap a faux leather bag?
what vinyl did you use and where did you get it?
some random vinyl sticker that I bought from a car-sticker-wrap seller.. sorry not too helpful for this but i guess any vinyl sticker works!
Can you provide us with a link to buy the wrap kit?
Hello! Would u recommend vinyl wrap or spray paint if I wanna turn my keyboard case purple?
Good video btw !
keyboard case... if you can do a spray then that would be better than wrap imo
@@JaslinTan thank you! I’ll do that then
Is that an actual heat gun or just a hair dryer?
I saw she replied to another comment saying it was a hair dryer
Bro your wrapping skills tho
hey there whats your monitor name?
What are the computer monitor arms are you using?
Im using Prism Arc Light Dual monitor arms
What brand/type did you use?
I didnt used any specific brand. I just went onto Carousell to look for any seller selling Vinyl stickers. You can also easily find them on Shopee / Lazada
yeahhhhh I can never do this by my self...
hi, may i know what length of the wrap u bought?
Hi i bought about 1.2m x 1m, still have plenty left
Hi may i know where u got the wrap?
Hi I got from a random carousell seller in Singapore: www.carousell.sg/p/1m-1-25m-14-car-wrap-vinyl-film-oracal-651-vinyl-waterproof-sticker-vinyl-sticker-gloss-matte-vinyl-sheet-solid-colour-glossy-1094216189/?t-id=209147_1638245985069&t-referrer=%2Flikes%2F&t-tap_index=3. Otherwise, you can easily find them anywhere on Shopee / Lazada as well.
Like, good vídeo
Hi where are you now. Please come back to doing youtube videos.
Does anyone know what mount does she use for the monitor?
Prism arc light dual monitor arm
I want to wrap my cat white !
Anybody know if i can use vinyl wrap on a carbon fiber desk? I’m not sure if it will work due to it having roughy edges and a not-so smooth texture
Sorry i'm not too sure about that!
What vinyl wrap did you use
just some normal vinyl sticker, you can get them from almost anywhere! I bought mine from some car-wrap-dealer
Where did you get the stuff that you used to rap your monitor
Which arm is that?
Prism arc light dual monitor arm
I lsuper Like ittt
i will do it to
You need blower for perfect fit
oh man i was considering doing this but it looks kinda hard 😭ill deal with my ugly black monitors lkdsjf
hmmm that's not how you sticker wrap something.. You need a heat gun.. or it'll all peel in... two days?..
Depends on the vinyl. For this brand of vinyl, a heat gun is not necessary
Yes my vinyl wrap is still staying intact very nicely. No air bubbles or anything! Doesnt peel!
lol take it apart and paint it, the wrap job is trash tbh and takes longer, godforbit you slip and cut the screen
Am sorry but that looked really really f*** up, use painting spray instead of spending alot of money and time for bad result mate.
it looks cute?? look how many comments wanna do the same because of this video?? theres no need to be so condescending and she loves it. would LOVE to see you do this :)
I think she wanted to do that for save option and also in case she wants to change or sell the monitor id she get a new one for free or out of her money buying
way to time consuming, looks bad, and you need to be way to precise and heavy chance to fuck up... there needs to be better ways to wrap/color or change the screen....
What a nice compliment thank you. May I implore you to try it for yourself too. Cheers!
Where did you get the wrap?
