Wrapping around Van Door Hinges any help???

I was wondering if anyone could offer some help to wrapping around these door hinges on a Ford van.
I have done cars and box trucks but never a van with side swinging doors.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks! IMAG0374.jpg

they look scary, but i promise it's not has hard as it would seem. Treat them as a giant rivet... is the easiest way i can describe it. Just wrap over and around it, don't commit to it or anything too close around the hinge. Then take a xacto, cut the very top of the hinge, and glove it into place, and then commit around it.


sorry if the above it confusing.. kind of hard to explain in text.
good luck.

Are you wanting to wrap the actual hinge?

If not and your seam is there then relief a little bellow top of hinge and a little above the bottom and run your squeegee up to it in all 3 directions and trim.
