The wrapping brief, filled in before the vehicle reaches the workshop
This is a suggestion, not a standard. We do not do your job: this list is a starting point, to be added to, cut down and rephrased to suit the way you work.

Before the appointment
Film goes onto sound bodywork, and the vehicle stays with us for several days.
Scratches, chips or paint repairs
Long text · Optional
Tell me what you know about: a flaw shows through the film.
Photos of the vehicle
File · Optional
All four sides, outdoors. That is what lets me quote without you driving over.
Can you leave the vehicle with us for several days?

Allow 2 to 5 days depending on the area. The film needs time and a temperature-controlled unit.

How it works
1
You pick your trade
When you sign up, and the questions on this page are already in your account. You cut them down, add to them and rephrase them: nothing is fixed.
2
You send one link
Your client answers from their phone, when they can, and uploads their files. They install nothing, create no account and choose no password.
3
What follows stays in one place
The conversation, the chasing, the later rounds of questions, the deposit and the balance, and the delivery of the files, which can open on its own once the payment settles.
What it costs
Frequently asked questions
- What should you ask before quoting a vehicle wrap?
- The vehicle and its year, its factory colour, the finish wanted (gloss, matte, satin, partial wrap), the panels to cover, and whether the plate should be hidden in the photographs. Those six answers are enough to price the job without a visit.
- Should you ask for photographs of the vehicle?
- Yes, and say which ones: four photographs, all four sides, outdoors. A file field with that sentence beside it brings back usable pictures. “Send some photos” brings back a three-quarter shot taken in an underground car park.
Think something is wrong?
A question that is missing, one that means nothing in your trade, a word that is not the right one: write to us and we will fix it.
