There are so many videos out there, I won't even begin to describe how to shrink the damn stuff, let's just say keep the gun moving and go slow. The shrink wrap tape in 2" width's will cover the inevitable holes due to having the gun too close or too long on a particular spot, can recommend it more highly. You will be surprised how many uses you will find for that stuff around the house, it's duct tape on steroids.

After the shrinking job, I go back around and slit a few spots and tie in the perimeter band to my trailer, as insurance. I buy a few adhesive vents for the top bow/stern to insure some air circulation and tuck the boat away. Again, even without any experience, I watched a few videos online, bought the gun, tape, shrink wrap, strapping and patch tape and saved a lot of money over the past 4 years. I have yet to spend more the 3 hours doing it start to finish.
