Please can i get some help with this ambulance.
Hi All,
I have a customer who is interested in an ambulance to be vinyled up. he wanted diamond grade which I told him I cant do as I dont have the setup for it. he then wanted me to give him 3 years warranty which I told him I will get back to him about. I provided him a swatch of the reflective of what we can do. I have attached a pic of what needs doing. What I wanted to know is the chevrons at the back and the side cubes, are they classed as a vehicle wrap?? as it cover the whole area?? can it be done wet or is that a NO, NO. all the vinyl is to be done in reflective.
thanx in advance.

No, its not a wrap.
why not just buy a kit in, add your fitting charge + profit on the kit and quote accordinglyNo one gives a three year warranty on this stuff, not for a one off anyway.
how do you know they will clean and look after it?why would you want to do it wet?

Hi Peter,
Thanx for your reply,
Thats exactly what i thought. Was thinking a year warranty. would like to get a kit in but they want it within the next 5 days after seeing me just today. also with the kits, can you buy them for a particular car say for example as in the pic a bmw, 5 series, 520d???
thanx

try blue light, they have good range of kits, and normally supply within a few days.
when a customer is demanding a deadline, you need to consider if they will get it done quicker elsewhere, and will it pay you to fall over backwards to do it? normally when a client wants a quick job, they will be prepared to pay a premium, and you should be able to justify this to them.

as Peter has already said, Bluelite are good. Here is a kit I fitted a while back. Took 2 days to make and deliver to me as a kit.
There is a template that comes with the kit and notice the numbers printed on the parts to show where things go

Is this ambulance to be used on the road ??
Even if it is for a track then you might find that they have certain regulations in place and specify materials for emergency vehicles. I am guessing the swatches you showed him were engineering grade which you may not be able to use anyway.

if it’s used for road going duties (paramedic ambulance, road race support etc) then it must comply with the chapter 8 regulations and be the diamond grade stuff.
if it is solely for offroad eventing (rugby, equestrian etc) as a first response vehicle, then it can use engineering grade.
for race tracks etc, I would ask.
