TWI Fundamentals: Working Around Hardware On The Body + Feeding a Tiny Mouth

Created 3 months ago

At The Wrap Institute, we are big fans of leaving the hardware on for a vehicle wrap as it saves time during the prep and post install plus avoids the risk of breaking it. Yet, it can be tricky to work around hardware on the body especially on a light colored car and when the molding has a tight mouth like shape. The chance of the material splitting and coming up short is very high. We get this which is why this video is great as Dimas shows a well thought out and solid protocol on getting perfect coverage. Be sure to note his tools, the use of 2 enclosed cuts at the tip and how he sits in a stool to minimize installer fatigue.
