Go Bills!
i've done more zamboni's than i can count and a few box trucks, but this is the first real wrap i've ever done.

hats off to you wrappers, that is some back breaking work.

printed with HP latex 25500, designed by another firm.

Looks sweet! How did you handle the roof & 1/4 panels? Where did you seam it at?
Never mind, I see the roof is actually a separate panel.
Love the colors!

well, i got the justin pate DVD and his brilliant idea of doing the entire side in one piece can go to hell!!! lol needless to say i did the other side in three pieces and about 2 hours less.

all in all took me and my partner three days to print and wrap.

Very nice work, what color was the car originally?

White

Looks really good man! As far as doing the entire side in one piece, I actually do that on cars. Not on vans though. I also recommend not doing it with the type of color shift that you have happening in that wrap.

All in all though, you did great. As for it being back breaking work, it can be - but man is it fun!

Any of you guys have a car lift to make install easier? I'm thinking about putting an electric car lift in the new building so I don't have to kneel down on the floor. Well not me, but so my employees won't hurt their knees.

na. drive em in. wrap em on the ground and drive em out.

the lift would just get in the way and make the job take longer. that camaro, would take me about 5 hours to wrap. the lift would ad another hour just fooling with it and having to work around it.
