I am just going to confuse the issue...but if it were me... I would use air release vinyl (apply dry !) for the bottom layer and apply the top layer(s) in the shop, because you have time to fix things before going on site. Apply the top layers in the shop, hinging (vertical, horizontal...

Nice ! The job, I mean. I have a Ferrari 458 in my imaginary stable of unobtainable cars. Red, not wrapped. The FF looks too much like a station wagon - or Shooting Brake, were I a Brit - which I guess it is. But I ramble. Anyway, I was wondering if you used knifeless tape to trim the...

Belt = Cable, that is, not the metal cable that pulls the carriage, but the white belt / cable above it that powers / controls the carriage.

Mask and Contour Cut Here are a couple extra tricks I added to earlier instructions:

One of our truck wrap customers has asked us to replace a shaped acrylic sign face that fell in a windstorm. This is not a product we make in our normal routine, but is a project that we should be able to handle. Getting the shape made was no problem and in the past, we have attached Jewelite...
