    Stephen don’t know if this helps but a lot of companies will sell to anyone. Last time I got asked for something like that I phoned a couple of suppliers saying I was Joe Public & asked for a price.
    Gave me an idea of what I should be charging the customer supply only. Actually didn’t go ahead as they could buy it as cheaply as I could.

    Hello Martin, Ive been fitting this stuff for "donkeys years" for various clients, but as this one is a new one I dont want to do myself or ripp anyone off, I tend to charge about £15 per mtr of the 1200 wide then fitting on top, I dont know if this is too cheap or too expensive !!!!!

    Just explain about the quality of yours against some of the cheaper ones out there. 15.00 is a little cheap, 18.00 – 20.00 for supply should be OK plus any delivery costs and tools?

    Thanks Chris, the stuff I use is from Dorotape, cost me £217 plus vat for 25mt 1200 odds wide, dont know if it is cheap stuff or not. I dont have any problems when I apply it goes on good and is not overly thin. That works out at £8.68 per mtr so I reckon that £20 per mtr is fine, then fixing costs etc.

    Thanks

    try pmx coatings, they sell Johnsons window film by the metre
    or Bonwyke also very good if you have any problems.

    I know Dorotape used to by Johnsons from them at one time

    talking about different films went to have a look at a job this week. This is actual shrinkage of film as there was still adhesive around the edges
