Smart Ways to Wrap a Short Timer
Instead of a full wrap use decals
You might not need a full wrap to get your message across. Well placed plotter cut decals often work as well as a full wrap. “There’s a tendency to define many types of display graphics as wraps. Wraps cover an entire area — either a complete vehicle, storefront, window, or retail display. Decals can often be just as effective. The advantages of decals include cost and ease of installation. Whether it’s a window cling, company logo on a truck, or a sticker on a retail display, applying a decal isn’t nearly as complicated and time-consuming as a wrap.” — FAQ: How Much Do Custom Decals Cost?
Use the best material for the job
There are quality adhesive vinyl materials available for short-term applications. However, they’re not the best choice for for many types of installations. For example, an adhesive vinyl that might be more than adequate for a small door decal could be a poor choice for a full wrap. The best way to know what material to use is to ask an established provider. The key is to not overkill by using a material above your needs, but even more importantly, not to use a material less than what is needed, which can lead to problems.
