I have had great success with the knifeless tape. When I've had to do something like the above photo with two colors at a set width apart I will use a corresponding width of masking tape to follow the contour of the first tapeline, and then lay the next run of knifeless tape along the edge of it.

I was thinking the other day about how to build complex templates for vehicles like ATVs, golf carts, etc where a lot of very odd-shaped panels are in play and figuring our 2-d models are tricky, when an installer walked by and commented on how nice phototex was to install that day as it does...

Attached is a wrap template for an XY Powersports Max Torque 200 Buggy. (this is the kids model) I found the blue area is unnecessary, but I left it on there. Enjoy!

For a one-off van, no that is a bit to low unless you're a 1-2 man shop. For the large fleet orders, yes that is a very reasonable price for a simple van wrap. Volume will take up the slack, but to get the volume you have to lower the price to compete.

You're gonna have to straighten that photo out and get out your pen tool in Illustrator (or whatever) for this one! I've encountered this one before; at least there aren't that many letters!

Without a photo it may be hard to answer your question 100%, but to me it seems like I would just print both the white and black on the gold and then cut/weed and then laminate and cut/weed again if they are encapsulated in the same laminate.

I would tell them that "you" are the local distributor of sign faces and that that amount is already part of your quote.

Nobody has one of these? I could really use one if anyone has found one.

RE; Tracing a 3D object into a flat 2-D piece: I really like using phototex for this, as it does not stretch and sticks well. I take the piece and place it onto the surface, trim it a bit, and then trace any ridges and edges with a grease pencil and then take it back off of the surface and...

The EdgeFX reads those little RFID chips in the foils that tell it what foil you have and how much is on the roll (IIRC). I remember occasionally that the chips would go bad or be incorrect and you had to push "override" or whatever on the printer.Here we only have the Edge1 & 2 so they don't...

Universal Products makes some great pinstriping tape in many colors and widths. The tape on a roll has a clear protective laminate/mask that you peel off after installation; regular vinyl would stretch as you try to get it straight on a vehicle. I usually buy my pinstriping/striping tape from...

We use ours every day and it's ugly but so is a tank! You can't stop either of them and you'll always use them. Ours (two) print around 4+ hours every day even though we have large format.

Looks like a custom "lettering" job not a font from someone like Leo's Gold Lion or another gold vinyl supplier.

Here is a simple 12"x18" pole sign mock-up template.

This is an electric Columbia Par Car for anyone searching later.

Pumper Tank Attached is a pumper tank/body that I created for a template today. I used the PVO template for the cab of this truck; if you have a PVO subscription you can download and place the appropriate artwork for that area of the vehicle. (see low-res JPEG for placement)

One time at a previous company I worked for, the owner had a "down-on-their luck friend" do an install for us to help save costs and give them a bit of cash. They loaded the 4x8 polymetal sign face their self and their two ladders on top on their small trailer and strapped everything down and...

Here is an electric "ParCar"... no idea what else it is really called, that's just what they called it. 1/20 scale, etc, etc.

Why so much printing on clear?

Sorry, you're right I had it backwards!
