Would you accept this job? Is it even possible??

We have a customer looking to get a shipping container wrapped in vinyl. I am very hesitant to say yes. It looks like more trouble than its worth.

It is actually not too bad, one of the largest wrap shop clients does it all day long with my 10 year SRT Cast Vinyl https://www.cruisingkitchens.com/

We've wrapped a dozen of these shipping containers...all different graphics and styles and profiles on the containers. Looks harder than it is. You have to work out the profile of the corrugation on the container and adjust the length of your graphics to suit..about a third to a half longer depending on the profile.

It can be done, but I would run away.

Thank you all for your input. Thanks you even more for confirming what I suspected. Customer has accepted the idea of vinyl mounted to ACM panels, so that is a big relief.

Intermodal containers often have large word marks on them (Maersk, China Shipping, K-Line, etc). How are those brands emblazoned onto those ribbed containers? Are they painted (sprayed through stencils)? Are they applied in vinyl? I haven't looked at one close enough to tell if the lettering is paint or vinyl.

Little North Korean children paint them by hand.

We were promised a Christmas Gift... did we get anything or did Trump blow that deal?

I think he may have already sent it this way:

It passed right over our Home Depot so you know it was aimed at the island's critical facilities.
