Graphink designs, prints and installs bus wraps in Miami. Buses, coaches, trailers and box trucks give you the largest moving canvas available, and we have been producing large format vehicle graphics from our Doral shop since 1998.
Coverage options
- Full wrap. Printed vinyl across the entire exterior, including around rivets, panel seams and curves. The highest impact and the most involved to install.
- King and queen side panels. Large rectangular panels along one or both sides. The usual choice for advertising campaigns where budget matters more than total coverage.
- Tail and rear panel. Seen by every driver stuck behind the vehicle, which in Miami traffic is a long time.
- Perforated window film. Prints across the glass while passengers still see out and daylight still reaches the interior.
Designing for a surface that moves
A bus is read at distance, at speed, and usually for a few seconds. That rules out small type, busy backgrounds and detail that only works on a screen. We design to the vehicle template, so nothing important lands on a door seam, a wheel arch or a hinge.
Rivets, corrugations and compound curves all distort artwork if the design ignores them. Getting a legible result means planning for the panel breaks before the file goes to print, not correcting for them during installation.
Materials and installation
Large vehicles need cast vinyl rather than calendered film, because cast conforms to curves and rivets without lifting or tenting at the edges. Our installers are 3M and Avery certified, and we carry four million dollars in liability coverage along with workers compensation, which matters when the vehicle belongs to a transit operator or a leasing company with its own insurance requirements.
Miami conditions shorten the life of a poorly specified wrap. Heat, humidity and salt air all attack the adhesive, and a vehicle parked outdoors year round takes far more UV than the same wrap would elsewhere. We specify film for where the vehicle actually lives.
Buses, trailers and box trucks
The same process covers shuttle buses, coaches, school buses, party buses, box trucks, semi trailers and food trucks. Larger vehicles usually need to be scheduled in, since a full wrap takes the vehicle out of service for longer than a van does.
Running several vehicles rather than one? Our commercial vehicle wraps and fleet graphics service covers matching a whole fleet and adding vehicles later. For cars, vans and single work vehicles, see vehicle wraps and car graphics.
