Seamless

How are you guys doing your seamless installs? Are you measuring and just seeming in door panels only? Or are you doing one large horizontal piece?

Long horizontal pieces would risk stretching (at least in our experience) and causes issues matching top to bottom splits on anything longer than say 15-20'
We print vertical panels. We measure each panel. 1/2" bleeds (1" overlaps) at each vertical edge/seam. More at top and bottom and two ends.
I've seen shops assemble the whole thing, then roll it down off the top of the trailer. Crazy scary. We install each panel individually.

oops. I realize he was talking about any wrap.
I was referring to haulers in my previous post (hence the vertical panels for each seam/panel on the side of the trailer)
We do all of our installs seamless when possible. for cars/vans its a combo of horizontal and vertical (whatever it takes to make it seamless, or appear seamless)
