Applying Large areas of vinyl Once you have mastered the basics, it’s time to look at the skill of applying a large area of vinyl to a variety of surfaces. This could be digitally printed or plain coloured vinyl film, applied directly to boards, glass or
other substrates. In straightforward steps, Paul will show you: • Basic technique • Use of water/application fluids • Squeegee choice and technique • Demonstrate applying large panels of vinyl to boards/facias/glass
• Working on Glass – etched films • Applying large-cut vinyl graphics
Application Challenge In this hands-on session, Paul will be challenging visitors to have a go at applying some vinyl themselves. He will be on hand to offer advice and guidance to make sure visitors gain vital experience in vinyl application. There will be a gift for everyone
who enters. There will also be prizes for the best job each day as well as an overall winner.
Basics of Vehicle Livery For most sign companies, vehicle graphics means applying vinyl lettering and logos to the side of a van. Paul will show visitors the basics of applying simple cut-vinyl lettering and even give them a chance to try it for themselves. The demonstration will include:
• General advice on layout – easy and hard areas to fit graphics to.
• Cleaning and preparation of the vehicle
• Basic application of vinyl to the vehicle
• Applying graphics to the front of vehicle – making it look straight is harder than you think!
• Flood coating recessed panels • Handling large panels of vinyl and their application.
• Applying vinyl over recesses and basic curves.

unrivalled meeting place for the signage, display, and print industry to keep up to date with what’s new, to see demos, and to do business, and 2024 is already shaping up to be a record-breaking show. Registration for either show allows visitors entry into both events.
