Bad examples of van wraps

Van wraps should be applied by a professional vinyl wrapping company. If you hire the wrong wrapping company or attempt to apply the vinyl wraps yourself, then you will probably end up with unsatisfactory results.

A perfect van wrap will not have any air bubbles or creases in it. You should see a completely flat and smooth surface after the van wrap is applied. If there is just one air bubble, crease or other discrepancies in the quality of the wrap, then it will look unprofessional and messy. That is not the look you want to go for if you’re a business trying to advertise their brand on a van.

Another bad example of a van wrap is when the vinyl material overlaps onto other parts or wraps. When the van wrap is applied, it is supposed to match up with the lines of the van. It should not be overstretched or forced in any way. A professional will take measurements of the van so that they can cut sections of the vinyl wrap and make it fit perfectly.

The idea is to make the van wrap unnoticeable. If you have lots of colours and pictures on your wrap, they should appear as if they’re actually painted onto the van. You don’t want to have any discrepancies in the appearance, or else people will be able to tell it is a wrap. Besides, wrinkles and air bubbles will distort the printed designs on the vinyl. Then people won’t take your message or advertisement seriously.

There is special equipment used for van wrap installations. A lot of this equipment cannot be purchased in the local hardware store. Only a professional van wrapping company possesses the type of commercial quality equipment that is needed to perform a flawless van wrap installation. If you follow this advice, you will never have a van wrapping problem.

What our customers say

I found BossDog after searching on Yell.com and from the very start found them to be very accommodating. They turned around several designs for me within a very short period of time, each time I sent them back with small amendments a new design was back to me within an hour or two. I was very impressed with the artwork, the response time and the quality of the materials they used. I have been a heating engineer for 22 years and know exactly what you have to do to make sure your customers are 100% happy, BossDog did this. I would recommend them to anyone who needs this type of work to be carried out.
