That is a chart referencing PROMOTIONAL vinyls. Next.

Please provide documentation stating this. 3M says this nowhere that I can find.

Depends what you're doing with it. We use it, and have for years (IJ35C) for lots of car graphics. It is perfectly fine for print and cut logos, etc, on cars or trucks. Good for up to 5 years, with laminate, and have had zero issue. No I would not wrap a car, or partial wrap even, with it, but...

Depends on what width vinyl you run, and how much waste you want to eliminate. I run 54" mostly, And I would probably run those at 50" wide (with 1/2" overlaps), and the last foot and half of each side I'd nest together. And make that last short piece the very back panel on each side.

Lots of sharpies and 12 hours free time.

Or you could just buy from the link I gave you that has the EXACT one.

American Flag Wrap for trucks | Vehicle side wrap, usa flag car wrap

1. You never specified a certain vehicle till now. 2. Best way to do this is get some butcher paper or pounce paper, lay it across the windshield and trace the contour of the top of the windshield. Take a photo of it laying flat on the floor (the paper, not you) and plop that in your design...

You do realize EVERY car is different?

Used to do the same thing at my previous shop....it was nice for a while, but it turned into a nightmare dealing with 4over and getting cards in that the colors were off, cutting was bad, etc. Relying on someone else's quality and turnaround ended up not working out and we stopped offering them...

I usually remove the wiper, which leaves just the post with a rubber surround usually. I tape up the perf in place, and where the post sticks in to it, I cut a small hole, or just mark with a Stabilo. Then I measure the rubber trim around the wiper post, and go back to the table with the perf...

Used to run one. Great printer, required minor daily upkeep (manual head cleaning/ink station cleaning/etc). But traded it in for our 2nd HP Latex and realized how much time even that little maintenance took. I would seriously invest in new tech, a new printer, instead of buying a 10-12 year old...

You say that like it's a bad thing.

OOOH....missed the film part. Well then....don't know what to say then. Someone needs to pony up for good vinyl then.

631 is a horrible choice to wrap anything. You can do it, but you're not gonna have fun. Doesn't conform or stretch like wrap purposed vinyl. You never said what the color needed is. For just a photoshoot and not leaving it on after? I'd spend the money on a Photoshop guru and just have the...

worktable, long straightedge and Xacto is the basic setup. The big purple ruler with attachable cutter is preferred, and what we use here.

In a word, No.

I assume you run your print vinyl down to the last inch, never throwing away any leftover ends, huh?

We pretty much do all boat lettering, vehicle lettering and such on 3M 180CV3....print and cut. Can do so much more with one layer of printed vinyl; drop shadows, beveled edges, multiple colors, etc. Laminate with 3M8518. But if they strictly want one color, simple stuff, Oracal 751 or 951.
