pinstripe or cut vinyl

[slappy]

I don't digital print.. can i pinstripe the silver color outline with pin striping? or should i just cut out vinyl? Thanks

in my opinion labor cost for striping would outweigh the vinyl waste cost.

Looks like there's 3 colors there; the black in the middle isn't the car.
Pin-striping would never hold up or look good. This would be best done as an Edge print.
If you have to layer vinyl then, yes you're gonna have to cut it and lay it up.

Okay cut it is! Thanks!

I wouldn't cut a thin stripe, myself. Solid blue, solid silver/grey, solid black- applied in that order. Cuts down on possible failure points.

Agreed. And you may want to do the last layer wet unless you're very confident in lining things up perfectly.

^ x3. Done that many times, especially if two of those three colors are reflective.

You can add a triangle registration marks on each layer in the same location. This will aid you in lineup of the layers.

as the others have said, solid cut vinyl and layer it.

+1 to cutting registration points, we find the hexagon is the best shape straight line for easy alignment and no acute angles to worry about when weeding
