THE WRAP PROCESSStep 3: Printing
Printing The WrapWe print out all of the panels for your wrap on
one long roll of vinyl. All of the panels are markedand will be cut into smaller, more manageable
sections.
Laminate The VinylIn order to protect the vinyl from UV rays, scratches
and the elements, we laminate the vinyl with aclear protective layer to let your vehicle wrap
last longer.
Cutting The VinylWe finally cut the vinyl into the panels thatcorrespond to the sections of the vehicle.
