Material suggestions for thermal print box truck

I have a summa DC3 and have a 14' box truck to cover. I havent done anything of this size yet , so I was looking for suggestions on a good material to print on that will still install easy and conform to all the rivets...and oh ya, not break the bank with material costs.Anybody try Avery A6001 EZ on a summa printer?Thanks

Have not tried the Avery but have run the 3M from other sources than Summa through mine. On this bigger stuff I just farm out the prints, panels are bigger so less seams, and I make more money.

I agree, I would outsource the printing to a large format eco-solvent printer. 3m 180 with a 3m 8518 lam. Thermal print would be very costly.

Thanks guys, that makes sense due to the amount of material to go solvent print. I have never installed a job that large. any tips for installing the 3M over rivets?
