A living room, a heat gun, and a pair of scissors
Wu Wraps did not start in a unit with a roller door. It started with one car, then a friend's, then a stranger from a forum who drove a long way on somebody else's recommendation.

It started with his own car
One car, his own, and a roll of film that cost more than it should have. Then a friend's car, then a friend of a friend's. Nobody was handing out apprenticeships in vinyl back then, so the learning happened the expensive way, on panels that had to come out right because somebody was waiting on them.

The first job he ever showed anybody
A carbon fiber lip for an E90 on the fourteenth, then a full set of E46 interior trim the next day. Not a shop, not a bay, not a lift. A living room, a coffee table, and parts balanced on his knees. He watermarked every photo anyway, which tells you what he thought this was going to turn into.
14 October 2011. The bay was his lap. 
The same week. An E90 lip, finished, on the dining table. - The kit
Everything he owned, on one towel
Two squeegees, two pairs of scissors, a blade, a brush, a bottle of isopropyl and a tin of 3M primer. That was the whole operation. The films were 3M 1080 and DI-NOC CA-418, which are still the reference points shops learn on.
The entire operation, 2011. - 2011 to 2012
A thread for every chassis
The name got made on car forums, and he worked them the hard way: a separate thread for E36 owners, then E39, E46, the E9x cars, the X3s and X5s, the F10s and F30s. Each one filled with before and afters. Interior trim was the opening act, the fiddly pieces nobody else wanted to take apart. By the end of that run he had put hands on more than 150 BMWs.

Carbon, then better carbon
When 5D carbon fiber landed he posted it the same week. That is the pattern that has held since the start: whatever film gets better, he buys it, tests it on something of his own, and only then puts it on a customer's car.
