So yeah, here's my car and here's how I wrapped it... enjoy
Below are links to everything you see in the video
Sooo you want to change the color of your car, great! I hope you have lots of hours, patience and a nice warm space to work in. I'd highly suggest watching some how to videos on RU-vid as well to get an idea on how its done AS IT IS NOT AS EASY AT IT LOOKS!!! Justin Pate and CK Wraps are two good people to watch as they teach application for a living.
You're going to need about $200 worth of supplies/tools. You can get them all from amazon for the most part, I'm sure there are other places you can get them cheaper, so knock yourself out, these are all 2 day shipping for the most part
Knifeless Tape ~$30
amzn.to/2HL7AK3
A 30 degree cutter knife ~$10
amzn.to/2FvEtcJ
A whole bunch of microfiber cloths $15
amzn.to/2GJIPfW
Vinyl Squeegies and Wrap gloves (I'd get a couple) ~$24
amzn.to/2oqQjhg
I'd also get Monkey Strips felt strips as the 3m ones are crap! Order directly from their site for 25 of them for $25 or get a 50 pack for $40 on amazon here amzn.to/2EPO9Sk
A Micro Squeegee
amzn.to/2IRtCLP
Heat Gun ~$50
amzn.to/2CK1NAv
70% isopropyl alcohol and a spray bottle ~$5 (this is to clean and degrease the surface before you put the wrap on)
Car safe magnets ( optional as only very few portions of the car are magnetic)
amzn.to/2opmWMa
To remove your Aston badges and car name you're going to need fishing line ($2), your heat gun, and some goo gone ($5)
amzn.to/2F6VmwS
To reapply badges I plan to use this super easy to use 3m product
amzn.to/2F4jKir
and if you want to disassemble your car a bit, a tool kit would be quite useful.
I bought my 75 feet of vinyl (about double what a professional would probably require) from cheetahwraps for like $545 shipped next day. They had far and away the cheapest vinyl, but I got a bunch of samples to see what I wanted from amazon.
