  • Class 1 reflective suppliers needed please?

    Posted by Lorraine Clinch on 5 May 2007 at 11:01

    Hi everyone.

    I need to place reflective chevrons to a recovery truck this week, red stripes 4 inches (100mm) wide. Does anyone know if these come pre-cut, sealed etc, and best supplier?

    Thanks
    Lorraine

    Hi Lorraine
    I buy rolls from Vinyl Corporation and cut myself. Did you get your new machine ordered?

    Hi
    You said you were looking for glass one by that I suspect you need the honeycomb type. I as you mentioned it being sealed there are only a few who offer this service.

    This service will take about 10 days if it is not a stock item but they will give you a quote by e mail

    i’d be surprised if you need class one, class one is the cop car and amliance stuff, few trucks i’ve seen use have it on them, class one is also extremely expensive !

    all the trucks i did for my brothers old firm were kiwilite, i now use nikkalite mainly (europoint), absolutely fine for the job.

    lorraine maybe correct, about a year ago class one became mandatory for motorway vehicles and the like. nikkalite, 3M, avery etc all do it…
    cheapest i have found/tried is wm smith.
    they also do vehcile chevron kits, road sign markings etc
