The guys at the shop where I help out with computer graphics etc. are about to do an application of a large (5' x 10')on a cube truck with multiple rows of rivets. Largest they have done so far.
It is to be printed on 3M stock and over laminated. I would not like to see them get into difficulties with this installation. Two sides x 5 x 10 can be expensive if they get fouled up.
I am sure there must be a good video and or instruction book that would give them some tricks and tips.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

William,

Gregory of Buhler, Kansas makes an excellent installation video. I believe that it was made by Rob Ivers, but don't quote me...

There was also a series of articles in Sign Business regarding installation of large format graphics.

This installation should not be overly difficult. I would venture a guess of maybe 2-3 hours per side, taking your time.

Have a great one!

Go to Sign Business's web site and look for online seminars. They have some choices and one is large graphic installations. Their clips run about 5 minutes and provvide some handy basics.
