Wrapping Up January

February 1, 2017 Issue
The Wrap Institute Newsletter

Hello everyone - I hope the first month of 2017 treated you all well. Here are the videos released in January:

The 3M Di-Noc series is almost complete and the videos will start being released on the site on February 6th. Lots of great videos on wrapping with Di-Noc, including: kitchen cabinets, bookshelves, an office desk, a living room wall, bathrooms, hallways, three different types of tables and more. Exciting stuff. A special thanks to 3M for their support of this project.

More product videos are in the pipeline for Avery Dennison, Teckwrap, Orafol, 3M and SOTT.

Also, from February 8-12 I will be in Dallas at TWI HQ shooting videos so if there are any requests please put them in the Forum.

Cheers
Justin

Wrapping Up December

January 1, 2017 Issue
The Wrap Institute Newsletter

Happy 2017 everyone! I hope the holidays treated you well and that you are ready for another year of learning and earning. As always, let’s begin with the videos released the previous month:

As the wrap industry and The Wrap Institute continue to grow and change, the beginning of the year is a great chance to see what is in store.  

The beginning of the year will focus on interior wraps as well as the launch of Product Videos. These are more straightforward, fact-based videos on specific materials and tools, but we feel that this type of information is critical to understand. Every product/manufacturer makes their materials differently. Understanding these differences - like the right post-heating temperatures or lamination combos for instance - can mean the difference between profiting and taking a loss on a job.

The Wrap Institute will have a booth again at Wrapscon. This year it’s in Long Beach and we have a great game plan. All demos will be videotaped so if you can’t make it to the show, you'll be able to check them out on the site.

I have lots of trips planned this year – America, Australia, Japan, Thailand, Canada, Brazil, South Africa, Ireland and Denmark. One of the main things I love about these trips is the great unknown. What new techniques, tips and tools can I learn and share right away on TWI. So, what will be the new technique or material or wrap that changes the industry? Let’s find out.

Cheers
Justin

Wrapping Up November

December 1, 2016 Issue
The Wrap Institute Newsletter

Hello everyone – I hope everyone had a great November. Here are the videos that were released in last month:

We had a very thorough 4-day video shoot at our headquarters in Dallas this month that resulted in 45 new videos. Several of the videos represent a new direction for The Wrap Institute. They are videos reviewing specific films - material notes, application difficulty, installation guidelines, warranty information, etc. Super clean, simple and informative. Look out for those videos in late December or early January. We would love to hear your feedback, positive or negative, as we think they will fill a huge niche in the wrap industry.

We already have big shoots planned for 2017 and our booth at Wrapscon is confirmed for the show in Long Beach in July so very exciting.

From December 24 – January 2 we are taking a break from launching a video every weekday so look for new videos with the new year. Time to relax with our families and put fresh buffers on our squeegees for all the wrapping in 2017.

Best wishes for the holiday season!

Cheers
Justin

Wrapping Up October

November 1, 2016 Issue
The Wrap Institute Newsletter

Hello everyone – I hope that October was an excellent month of wrapping. Here are the videos that were released this month:

November will begin with lots of business and production videos featuring John Duever and Adam Sumner.

SEMA, the world’s largest car show, will take place in Las Vegas from November 1-4. I will be doing demos in the Avery Dennison booth with Jim Miller, John Duever and Joffrey van der Jagt wrapping Gas Monkey’s race car several times a day with super cutting-edge designs - come check it out and say hi if you are there.

Look for the annual SEMA overview video to be released on wrapinstitute.com in mid-November. I will be filming in Dallas from November 15-19 so if you have any requests please put them in the Forum. We have a big list but can always accommodate more.

Best of luck in November and as the final of run of the year begins.

Cheers
Justin

Wrapping Up September

October 1, 2016 Issue
The Wrap Institute Newsletter

Hello everyone - I hope that this quickly expanding wrap industry is treating you well. Here is the list of videos released on The Wrap Institute in September:

This month we're starting a deep color-change series on a GMC truck. Great information on how to remove doors, hoods and beds, along with how to wrap door jambs.

In mid-October I will be in Dallas filming new videos. John Duever (Vinyl Images) will be there as well to make videos about the business of wrap - so look for those in November. It’s one thing to be able to wrap and another thing to be able to know how to price and make sure the right insurance is purchased.

SEMA in Las Vegas is just around the corner with lots of exciting events. I will be in the Avery Dennison booth along with Jim Miller, Joffrey van der Jagt and John Duever wrapping a Gas Monkey race car three times each day. Joffrey is coming up with super exciting designs which will push the boundaries for sure. There will also be lots of parties and events including the WWWrap party on Wednesday at 7pm.

Hope to see you there.

Cheers,
Justin
