There are many different options available when you are looking to have your vehicle filmed. We offer a wide range of options, that can cover just your front bumper, or your full vehicle.
Using the very latest software and templating database, our trained installers computer cut the film using large format plotting machinery and vehicle template, ensuring maximum coverage to the desired areas.
Once cut, the vehicle is decontaminated in preparation for the film to be installed. A mixture of application solutions are used in the installation before finishing the face film with one of our wax or sealants.
