Would it be possible for you to demonstrate a wrap on something like a smaller square(ish) door from a interior center console? I’ve tried doing mine (Ford Taurus SHO - 2015) and end up with a mess at the corners, some very creative use of colorful words, and yet another ball of wrap sent to the far reaches of the garage. These doors are approximately .25 inch thick and the thickness is where the I struggle. Thanks so much for all your amazing videos. You do amazing work and have a very pleasant and professional approach. Well done.

@CKWraps I just dropped about $4,600 for a local wrap shop to do my w204 c300 in Avery Satin Rushing Riptide and there are several bumps on my hood and front bumper. The shop tells me it's because it's not OEM paint and imperfections are in the paint that is causing the issue. I can send photos to get your professional opinion. Right now I can fix the hood but will cost me another $480 to completely sand my hood down and re-wrap, the cost is mainly for the bodywork because there's a 2yr warranty on wrap. For that price, I could almost buy an AMG style aftermarket hood and have them wrap that in the future.

Hey, it could be imperfections in the paint. There's no way to really know unless the wrap is removed. If you want, you can email pics to info@ckwraps.com

Answered my questions exactly.... I've been so frustrated lately with cheetahwrap... Or so I thought it was cheetahwrap as I do all my chrome deletes/black accenting with it. Never had issues but I've been getting alot of bubbly streaks on the past 3 suv spoilers I've wrapped and also on some mirrors. Don't get it anywhere else. Gassing makes sense...

Christian! I bought some vivvid vinyl last year to wrap a hood, when I was glassing the film I reached under to lift the film where it was bunching once. I make it a point to leave excess and try not to touch the underside for skin oils. Once I was finished I noticed the adhesive air channels collapsed where I had touched it, and there were 3 distinct fingertip marks where the adhesive channels collapsed. This completely turned me off from vivvid as I’ve used plenty of other films that never do this. Is there something else that would have caused this? I would like to use vivvid in my shop for the colors and price but I can’t afford to put out poor installs. What are your thoughts?

My First ever wrap attempt on my 1995 MB SL500 Center Console with Vivid Gloss Black Carbon Fiber wrap still showed up the hairline defects in the underlying original woodgrain locker finish. Should I lay an extra layer of Wrap or can I use a thicker exterior wrap on it? Saw the SL500 in your demo and was hoping you would wrap it. LOL! Thanks for all your great videos, I have learned a lot for a 75 year old "Old School car guy."

CK ... I tried to do my challenger SXT hood myself and ended up abandoning the wrap because of the bubbles. I was using Vvivid Deep Black Carbon Fiber 3D (or maybe 4D). I used a 2:3 ratio of 70% alcohol and water to clean the surface (obviously after a car wash) and laid the wrap with magnets on the corners. When I tried to glass it this particular film was sticking like crazy. I did it in a garage so I would not have to try it outside in the florida heat but the car was cool and it may have been about 80 degrees in the garage. Because of this, I could never get the perfect glass on the hood but from watching your video I do think that one of the main problems contributing to the bubbles was the vinyl locking down. My problem was that because it was locking down on the hood itself, it was extremely difficult to lift the edges and push air out. I did find that i needed to push down harder than I thought I would need to on the vinyl as i squeegee'd. That helped a bit but lifting enough to push the air out was almost impossible. In Florida, because of the heat and humidity, do you think a case like this might call for tack reducer, along with better technique? And will using tack reducer decrease the longevity of the vinyl. Obviously, I'm new to this but felt pretty confident going in on it after watching most of your videos on doing hoods and technique in general. Any advice you could provide would be helpful. Also, my original choice in the vinyl was the Tru Carbon R but it seemed to no longer be available on Amazon so I try the Vvivid Deep Black. Thanks again.
