Then form them around the underlaid graphic.

Use a wrap glove or Rollepro and gently heat the overlaid graphics.Gravity Graphics chose Avery Dennison SW900 Supreme Wrap Film in matte white for this color change. Air regress vinyl is preferred, because it allows the release of air buildup around the plotter-cut graphic during the heating process. Wrap over the top of the cut-vinyl design with the final product.Apply the cut vinyl to the desired location.For this project, David used ORAFOL’s ORACAL 751C High Performance Cast vinyl for the underlay. The thicker the vinyl, the more dimension the emboss will show. Gravity Graphics does this by photographing or tracing an emblem. Create the emboss design using a vector layout that can be cut from any color of vinyl graphics.

The process is simple and fits into normal signshop operations of tracing and cutting vinyl: “On this project and others, taking of the factory emblems and tracing them to a single-color vector format allows us to produce underlays that convert vehicle markings to subtle accents,” he said. A New Dimensionĭavid demonstrated the technique on a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited model (with Sahara trim package option) belonging to client Outpost Vacation Rentals. Gravity Graphics’ client’s Jeep with the underlay embossing installed.
