What would you charge? (BUS WRAP)

Kentucky Wraps

Kentucky Wraps
If you don't laminate it, you WILL tear it during install....

I wish people would stop giving tips like this..

+1
The extra $150-$300 for laminate (u don't need cast if using calendered vinyl) is well worth adding to the price of the wrap just in time and headache alone.
I've done 2 wraps without lam...NEVER AGAIN. It took twice as long with a reprinted panel due to tearing etc.
Adding $300 to the cost of the bus wrap for laminate is a NO BRAINER.

So i just got a email from Arlon about this product DPF 4500GX Its much cheaper than the AutoMark. Do you think it would work just as well?
It is 0.6 mil thicker than AutoMark.

Ha ha ha

Brings mine back. Haven't lost a customer to the 43,000 wrap shops around me.

Customers always right. Short term wrap well I have an option if can not afford lam.

Oh we love you so much. Thank you thank you thank you....

People are coming from New York, New Jersey and soon Colorado to get wraps by us..

Ha ha ah... insert < u mad bro > gif here..

Oh we contacted another shop and they said we needed it or we were going to die and

the sun will contact the ink and babies will explode and we didn't want to kill babies,,,

then I saw the wrap you did for so and so and it's been there for 3 years and looks

great and they said they only needed it to last 8 months till the special was over...


We only need ours till the summer is over do you think you can install it with sandpaper wrapped around a baseball and throw the ball at it until it's nice and installed..

and I'm like sure..

From Merriam-Webster -

quill (noun) : b : a roll of dried bark <cinnamon quills>

:help

Maybe the cinnamon makes the One Shot taste better. Are you doing Scratch N Sniff vehicle lettering??
