In the world of vehicle wrapping, speed and quality go hand in hand. However, rushing the process without the right tools can lead to costly mistakes, damage to the vehicle, or even personal injury. Finding the balance between efficiency and safety is key. With the right investment in specialized tools, you can speed up installations without sacrificing quality or risking harm to your team. This week, we’ll dive into how the right tools can help you wrap faster while ensuring safety for both installers and the vehicle.

SensorCut Pro

During the development of the Ford Wrap Program, TWI faced a unique challenge: cutting out sensors for wraps without using knives. In response, we collaborated with Yellotools and engineered the SensorCut Pro. This innovative tool allows you to quickly and safely cut out sensor areas with precision—no knives required. It's the perfect solution for keeping wraps flawless while ensuring that sensors remain undamaged. This tool revolutionizes cutouts, combining speed and safety into one seamless process.

TWI Wrap Axe

The Tuck and Cut 2 technique is essential for wrapping film into tight gaps like window moldings and bumper/fenders. However, using a traditional knife for this advanced technique carries the risk of cutting the surface, especially for beginners. The TWI Wrap Axe changes that! Designed in Japan, this thin-edged tool allows you to make fast, precise cuts without the risk of surface damage. The plastic edge can be sharpened to cut like a knife, but without the risk, making it a faster, safer alternative for tight, professional finishes.

Weldy Heat Gun

A heat gun is indispensable for wrapping, but typical models come with challenges like slow heat-up times and dangerous hot tips. Enter the Weldy heat gun—developed with TWI input for professional-level efficiency. It heats up quickly, has a protected tip to prevent burns, and produces a wide, soft heat ideal for wrapping without overstretching the film. Plus, it comes with a magnet holder from Magstrapz, so your heat gun is always within reach for a smooth workflow. This tool enhances both speed and safety, raising your wrapping game to the next level.
