Vinyl Wrapping a Campervan

I’ve been wanting to do this modification to the van for a long time, I’ve even had quotes to pay someone to do it. But I just really like getting stuck in myself.
So I picked the best weather day, with no wind and no rain, I then set about teaching myself how to wrap, using a metal based vinyl (so it doesn’t stretch well or isn’t great when heated).
I started at 9am and finished at 9pm.

    I've done a bit of vinyl sign making myself, that's very good job you did there John. Looks like the stiffness of the material made it difficult....probably more suited to completely flat applications. That makes it a lot harder to get the finish you did. Pros use application fluid (well they do when someone else is paying) but a little washing up liquid in a water spray bottle does the same thing. That's mainly to allow for easy repositioning. Small bubbles ....pin pick the centre to make an escape hole for the air and go over them with your squeegee working from the outside to the pin hole. Van looks better now mate. Nice one. 😎

    I’m about to do this, once it’s a dry day, so I’ll probably watch this another 10x before given this a go 🤞

    You have the patience of a saint. I'd would have had right old tantrum and given up. Fantastic job.

    Looks very neat, goes very well with the two grey stripes down the side of the van. If I tried to do something like that I'd need to order 20 times the amount I really needed, and would probably still end up with all of it in the bin! 🙂👍

    Looks good I like it when people personalise their vans. I can’t do stuff like that as I’m a paraplegic but I do as many jobs I can myself and always feel good when I’ve finished. I have repaired and improved something done by the manufacturer. Looking forward to seeing you finishing the bed area 👍

    Good job, its not easy getting pre cut vinyls right, so cutting your own from a roll is even harder, looks great.
