    Just some pics of a bus wrap we did a little while ago. We wanted to try make it look like paint so there are only 2 joins on the whole project (on the rear).

    Something a bit different to our usual mining work!

    Top job mate. You and Shane should get together some time. You Aussies seem to like your buses. 😉

    I really like the simplicty of that bus mate, works for me, nice one!

    what vinyl did you use here, and how long approx did it take to fit?

    thank you for taking the time to post your work. much appreciated.

    Thanks guys.

    Rob, I used 3M 180CV3 with 8518 Lam, it took 7 full on days for me to install it by myself including stripping all door handles, lights, etc. I printed each door separately so there was enough to wrap around the edges of the doors – the only real difficult part of was the 12.4m x 600mm panel that runs the length of the bus!
