    Sub your printing out. I know its not what you want to hear but its the best advice.

    Most of your money should be made installing wraps.

    can’t be done, there is no suitable media for pigment printers that will stretch and conform.

    Don’t think you will get any advice from people who have done this, a lot of people on the boards are serious signmakers who make a living from the industry. Quickest way to destroy your reputation would be to do a job using totally unsuitable materials. Listen to what Warren has said, he knows because he runs a pigment printer and subs out any printing he needs for wraps.
