The installation timeline for a 5-vehicle fleet is influenced by several logistical and technical factors. At Signs Regina, the process is managed methodically to minimize operational disruption, including coordinating schedules so vehicles remain on the road as much as possible.
Key factors affecting the timeline include:
- Vehicle Surface Complexity: The presence of contours, rivets, and recessed areas requires extra attention to detail and increases the labor hours needed for precision application.
- Wrap Coverage: Full wraps take significantly longer to produce and install than partial wraps, which only focus on high-impact zones like doors or rear panels.
- Old Graphic Removal: if vehicles currently have existing decals or deteriorating wraps, they must be stripped using professional-grade solvents and heat. This preparation is a critical step to ensure a clean surface for new adhesion.
- Design and Approval Phase: The timeline includes an in-house design process where full-color mock-ups are refined and approved by the fleet manager before production begins.
- Surface Preparation: Extra time may be required for repairing damaged paint or addressing corrosion to ensure the vinyl adheres correctly.
- Administrative Compliance: Navigating permit and approval requirements with the City of Regina is a necessary step before installation can proceed.
