    You need to use a Cast vinyl & the same cast clear lam. there are several makes around but i prefer Graphityp’s wrapping material as it hasn’t let me down as yet.
    would also recommend going on a course to learn properly as we did. it was well worth it.
    is that any help?

    went to Watford on a 3 day course last April, very informative, also the techniques we were taught helps out in everyday life as a sign maker.

    i think grafityp now offer wrap courses in their own premises in Birmingham now… sorry but don’t know much more info on that…

    metamark is being used to wrap taxis around the UK at present, but it is not actually a wrap material, nor is it a cast vinyl.

    Not far off Rob, but we are in Tamworth, Staffordshire to be precise 😉
