    Hi All,

    l purchased some carbon vinyl printed wrap on 3m vinyl from a company in either the midlands area or maybe a further north, on their website they have a wide range of carbons that they print to order, l ordered from them about 4 years ago and cant remember who they are! could anybody help me out here, with any ideas please!

    Thanks

    Nigel

    I cannot help with suggesting who it could be, but If they are printing it, I doubt you will get a perfect match unless they are using the exact same vinyl, laminate, printer and profile to recreate it. even then, it will be new and the stuff you have will be weathered.

    you could use one of the carbon wrap tiles from Adobe Stock and print samples to match your existing.

      Thanks Robert for that, fortunately David has come up with the name of the company, so l will be able to order from them, the job in hand has been simplified as the owner has said he wants all the graphics replaced along the motorhome, he does have a small amount of carbon to remain but it is up high and he is not worried about an exact match, but the guy l spoke to at WRPD asked for a picture and measurements as to size of weave and he will try to match it as closely as possible, so happy days!

      Thanks again, your knowledge is always appreciated!

    I’m sure that’s what a mate of mine used to wrap some race car trims, really nice vinyl and quality.
