  • Wrapping an Astin Martin Vantage tomorrow, wish me luck!

    After wrapping for sooo many years, tomorrow I’ve got this baby to wrap.

    I’ll post pics after the event!

    Bit nervous as customer wants to ‘watch’!

    Hide the scalpel’s then!

    Hi lynn

    Just colour change with odd bits of black strategically placed for effect. Front grill, door pillers etc..

    WHY? I’ll ask him tomorrow!

    Hi Matt
    Party poop-er time
    Get a disclaimer for the paint work and damage to, In-case the job goes Boobies up (Politically correct)
    Hell! I don’t earn enough in a year to pay for a respray for one of those things.
    Best of Luck M8

    Oh you lot are soo negative!

    Its only an expensive Sprinter van!

    Same care taken on prestige vehicles as on commercials!

    Thanks Alan tho, may need your garage!

    Believe it or not the guy wants it wrapped white (vehicle is black) and wanted to cut out the bits he wants black!

    I’ll stick with the white wrap and black added over the top me thinks!

    Thanks guys..tomorrows pics will show results or a car locked in Alans garage!

    My thoughts exactly, you probably wouldn’t worry at all about wrapping an £85000 DAF tractor unit, it’s just the name Aston Martin that gives people the jitters 😀

    Hope it all goes well and looking forward to see the finished job.

    We’re doing a Bentley CGT in Pearl white this week.

    We do get the customer to sign a disclaimer re: paint damage as we are finding that a lot of vehicles have been resprayed at some point and usually have very poor lacquer on them.

    People are also more fussy about their cars than they are about work vans!

    After much negotiation the bugger pulled out!

    Wouldn’t sign any disclaimer as regard to stripping and removing paint/laquor so we walked away. (it was only a temp wrap, 6 months)

    Far play to the guy tho he coughed up for material, travel and as a good will gesture bought us coffee and cake!

    Thanks for your comments and good luck John with the Bentley. Would love to see it finished!
