Re: Not cut vinyl but a big vehicle wrap we did. Looks Great. Did you make vertical seems? how much did you overlap? Great Job.

Re: Not cut vinyl but a big vehicle wrap we did. yes we did vertical seams.. each side had 4 panels and the back was 2 panels. We overlapped about 3/4 of an inch.. which is a bit more than we would need to be better too much than too little.. lol..

Re: Not cut vinyl but a big vehicle wrap we did. Very nice susan, what type media did you use? Do you need to laminate these kinds of jobs?

Re: Not cut vinyl but a big vehicle wrap we did. we used oracal 3551 rapid air
Oracal Digital Media from Ordway Sign Supply - (800) 967-3929
It has like an alligator texture adhesive back that allows you to get air bubbles out easily..
and yes its best to laminate it..
