We take ours to a local shop that sews the edges. they charge us a fee so little for stitching that it's a no brainer.
There is a 3M adhesive that I have read here works GREAT for hemming banner edges, but the name escapes me.
As far as merchant members; they are wholesale printers you can...
We have three 63" printers here (HP, Mimaki, Epson) and if we get an order for a banner over 60" wide we outsource it. You should look into the Merchant Members here and I think you will be pleasantly surprised at how inexpensively they can produce these for you. I have done these in the past at...
Most people who print banners that large have 16' wide printers and they also purchase those expensive welders.
When I need a banner that large I outsource to someone with the correct equipment.
FWIW, I wanted to post my solution up on here in case anyone else ever gets into this situation:
Print the white colors that are able to be printed and then I laminated the last (background color) of the decal onto the lexedge with 220 vinyl, and then laminated the double-sided adhesive onto the...
I would also SERIOUSLY recommend you take a look at the GFP laminators instead of Seal.
We just switched over from our aging Seal to a new GFP and it makes laminating 100000000% easier. Seriously.
As far as plotters, we have our Mimaki CG plotters here and also a 48" Summa, all cut great.

We recently needed to purchase an additional printer and were debating between the Hp 360 and the Epson 70670.

We received a sample from a customer who we regularly do Gerber LexEdge decals for. We usually print them with our Edge1/2 here, but the Edge has a limitation of 11.79" wide for printing... and this sample decal is printed on what looks like an Edge (solid colors reverse printed in layers) but...
Once dried it does not stretch like you need a vehicle wrap to do. If you are doing simple box truck sides with small rivets you can use liquid laminate.
It is a bit of an "off-gray" as opposed to a true gray but it is a dark gray vinyl.
But really there is a reason that there isn't any vinyls available in-between that and black; it's because from 5 ft away they're gonna look black.
If you do a step-print at 5% between 0-100% black on a digital...
If you are matching what is already on a truck, yo're gonna have to take a real clear photo and re-post it here.
it sounds like you're a bit new to lettering fire apparatus; and I will be the first to tell you how picky they are!
