The vehicle wrap specialists at Iconography Studios are proud to have printed and wrapped this custom graphic bus wrap for Kidz Bop just before it left for a cross-country national tour.
Its hard to believe that this bus started out as a plain purple bus. Our first step was to prep and clean the bus thoroughly so that the wrap material would adhere properly. Next the bus was covered in the gloss black vinyl that you see here. The material used was 3M’s 1080 gloss black film. This is a cast vinyl that is solid black all the way through. Using this cast black material is preferable to printing black material when such a large area will be covered and when such a large portion of the design is solid black.
After the black wrap was installed, the graphics were applied as overlays on top of the black. The graphics were printed on 3M’s IJ180 film and then laminated with 3M’s 8518 gloss overlaminate. The laminate film protects the prints from fading and also aides in the installation process – laminated film is much easier for our installers to work with and the laminate also protects the print against minor scratching from our installation tools.
