    I found this video and this is essentially the way i do it but without using the tape as i use a backing knife to cut the backing separate from the laminate. But loading the material straight is the issue here.

    ok the printer i use is a S80600. This machine doesn't have an auto cut feature so you have to use a razer blade or knife to cut the machine from the material. now there is a groove to cut in but it hardly ever cuts perfectly straight.

  12. E450 Passenger Van wrap Help

    Looks as the hardest part will be the nose cone above the cab. Would this be easier doing a seam right along the front lower edge. Doing the underside first then doing the top. This way it splits that large contour up?
