I was going to wrap the tank on my Harley, thought I would watch a "how to" like this to give me an idea of how hard it will be. Now after watching this I've decided to do something easier like build a nuclear submarine.

@chrisisaguru1 6 лет назад

I just attempted the tank on my Sportster thinking it would be easier than what he just went through. I was wrong and I can confirm it would be easier to build that submarine!

CK, Karl here. Your BFF producer in Denver. Tip of the day. Always try to position the camera pointing away from the light source. That way you are not fighting the back light, and you can use the sunlight from the open door to your benefit. Karl

Thanks for the tutorial. Managed to wrap my r6 tank with one piece :)

@JJ_ExMachina 6 лет назад

When Wrapping side mirrors, fuel tanks, or anything that has really complex curves, you start out looking the same, having to slowly "mold" the vinyl around those complex curves. All while making sure to not over stretch the vinyl to prevent causing discoloration. Most low "rent" shops will piece together complex curves on mirrors, bumpers, and even rear deck lids, or gas tanks. It's the people that do single piece wraps up to panel gaps that are the true "PROS"... and are well worth the money.

@remotexpolde 3 года назад

Awesome. Having said the above, if one was to wrap a HD Dyna fuel tank, keeping the chrome centerpiece, would it be best to do it in one piece ( much less odd angles as in this video ), or each side separately? ~ I wrapped the forks in Carbon fiber after an auto shop said "it will just keep peeling because it's exposed to air". 2 years later, Zero peeling. Looks great. I'm sold on a mat Black Satin Wrap.. just figuring out the best way to get it done Well. Thanks man. Cheers!

@vurasiwraps7864 4 года назад

So after watching this and his struggle with the tank moving I recommend this: If your workspace is "L" shaped (with a wall behind your desk) mount points for bungie-cords. Have a shelf too. Mount cords on the shelf, desktop, and wall. These points can hook onto most pieces and makes you "suspend" the piece so you dont have to hold it. Tried it today. Made my production faster!

@BenYorkeMrHardtail 4 года назад

Very Impressive! Mad props on doing this this the tank off the bike! Did my R6 with the tank installed. The fact that it does not move around is a huge difference! There is no way I would be able to do this like you with the tank on the table. Amazing!

Dude you are amazing!!....I think i have a little trick for you when you're working alone and the piece moves around, what i do is, I cut long strips of scrap wrap and i stick it on the piece and on the table with a bit of heat and then peel it off and stick it on another side so you can always work whatever side you want without it woving around....I have not tried to wrap a tank yet, but after watching you, i'm gonna give it a try, thanks alot for the great vid.

Exactly! I thought the same thing...I'm prepping my front fender and already have it screwed to 2x4s through the bolt holes...then going to screw the 2x4s directly to a workbench. Hoping it goes smoother than this. Good tutorial though to see what I'm up against.

@texdakota 5 лет назад

Well...it's definitely the best way to attempt it without it floating around. But I gave up on it seeing my patience level is low...lol. I kept wrinkling it and couldn't get it right. I ended up stripping the paint off my bike since it was purple and I wasn't crazy about it. So now I have a bike that's stripped down to bare metal and it looks pretty cool the way it is.

@Kendrickshayesjr 6 лет назад

@-RyN-23 6 лет назад

wildcard252 it take patience more than anything. But once you try on some smaller curvy objects and learn how to heat and how the film lays soaking up slack etc. Its something anyone can do just take your time and learn how it stretches how it shrinks with heat etc and then go for it

@-RyN-23 6 лет назад

Also as u see here it's very forgiving as far as if u mess up just pull up some add heat relay

@opmike343 5 лет назад

I don't know. With that amount of stretching and glassing, I can't help but wonder how long before the wrap job will begin to fail, especially when the bike is sitting in the direct sun on a hot summer day.

This video should have been titled "Why you can't apply vinyl wrap on your own and should pay someone to do it instead". Seriously, you made this look incredibly difficult to do so either 1) you aren't all that great at applying vinyl (at least not by yourself) or 2) it is this hard, you are very good at it and nobody is going to be able to do this on their own without a ton of experience.

What's your take on pinstriping butt joints? I have a similar tank I want to do the wrap in two colors. The top in brushed aluminum and the contour on the sides with matt black. Then I want to pinstripe with gloss black. I also want to do this "silver stripe" on the mud guards too. But, they are already matt black. So, it'd simply be the aluminum with a gloss black pinstripe.

How about screwing down the tank to a block of finished wood? Not only that the tank won't dance around but you would also have it higher positioned and your back would appreciate it. Just make sure that the wood won't contaminate the inside of the vynil.
