wrap

As we all know, true mirror chrome wrap vinyl is insanely high priced. I have a small job where a customer created a desk from an old truck front end, instead of getting the bumper to the thing rechromed they want me to wrap it in mirrored chrome vinyl. They are not super particular and the...

Hey wrappsters, I will be print wrapping a 3500 HD Dually next week, and I am wondering if I should be using IJ480 for it? Or if anyone has any tips on those fenders?

Hey all, Was approached by a customer woh bought one of those fancy toy haulers to haul behind their motor coach. Trailer is white, motor coach is not. They want them to match. Design wise not a problem, already recreated the design and sized it up appropriately to the trailer being wrapped...

Hey Guys. I am in the process of printing a wall wrap for a shop internal wall.. Now my question is can i use a Monomeric 3yr vinyl with lam instead of a specific wall vinyl which is 3 times as expensive?

I have like three clients that would be interested in wraps if i can just figure out how to design them! Any tips and tricks out there? I really like the washed look too.

Several months ago we wrapped a Sprinter van with the Arlon SLX wrap vinyl and laminate. There is no rear window on this van, but the design called for printed vinyl to look like a window (black with lighter text). So, we wrapped the entire rear of the van with digitally printed solid red...

we have this problem during the installation process where the overlaminate begins coming apart from the vinyl. Using Avery supercast kit. Any ideas?

I plan to do a trailer wrap and I will be designing the graphics in Photoshop. I don't plan to do many (any) more wraps so I have not invested in rip software and I am looking to see if anyone is available that I may sub out the rip work to for a fee. I will likely be using 365 to have the...

Hi all, I was wondering what some of you prefer to use when printing/laminating and installing vehicle wraps? I prefer Arlon SLX but we are having static issues with it that no other media seems to have...

Okay, I need some help. The customer wants their Pro-Master to look just like this and the customer gets what the customer wants. My issue with it is that when I design it the part that I would print exceeds 54" so I can't print in one piece. I could print it in sections but I fear like it'll...

I'm an installer looking for a wholesale supplier who uses Avery's 1105 film. I currently use Signs365 and B2Signs, but they both use 3M IJ180. I'm not happy with the way the film is laying down. The initial tack is too high and the repositionability isn't there. I can't tell if the ink is...

Our HP printer is down at the moment, so we're having to use a local wholesale printer to print for a wrap due next week. He uses IJ180cv3 vinyl with Lamex 2mil 4yr overlaminate. His pricing is good, but would our wrap job be compromised with the Lamex? Anybody use the Lamex for wraps?

I have looked high and low for a specific template for a 2011-12 Polaris Ranger 2 seater. They are mostly 2013 and up if any at all. Looking for anyone who has created a template for something like this as it cannot be one solid wrap and would need to be sections. Thanks

Wondering if I can get some recommendations! We want to wrap our company pickup, and the color of the truck is white. We haven't done a full color change wrap before, and so I'm wondering if anyone can tell me what they do where the truck bed and the cab meet. If I wrap the truck in any color...

We have a customer who owns a large car sales dealership. They have bought this bus and want it wrapped flat black with their logos on sides and back. I have wrapped trucks and some cars before but I have never tackled anything like this before. My main concert is the roof of arra above the...

In need of a little bit of information. I have wrapped plenty of partial side graphics on boats but i have never done anything on top of the front of the bow. The area above the bumper is where i am talking about. The wrap will not wrap all the way over the top just to the first seam above the...

We are looking for a very experienced wrap installer (150+ vehicles) to work on a freelance basis in the Raleigh-Durham area. I simply can't handle the demand myself anymore and need some fill-in work from time to time. Experience with Sprinters a must. Send contact info and portfolio with...

Well... Not the end of the world but Dear Lord help me! So a customer of mine wanted to wrap up a Smart car in Matte finish and have their logos laminated with gloss and stick on top of the matte wrap to give it an extra popping effect. Since this is such a small car and basically matte...

Just wonder for you guys that do mainly installations do you price wrap installs by the sq/ft or by the hr?

We are looking for opinions on a few things. First off we are thinking about wrapping one or both of our shop trucks, to bring in some more wrap jobs. Currently both trucks are nearly identical (see photo 1). We are happy with the current layout and it has been working great for us for the...
