Taking Vehicle Wraps from Concept to Output with CorelDRAW

CorelDRAW provides perfect support

Bös creates the first draft. He can send the customer a preliminary version of the design at any time via the integrated cloud solution, without having to export to PDF, and thus avoiding email chaos.

All stakeholders can add their comments directly to the layout, and Bös is able to see them in real time. This accelerates the approval processes and minimizes errors. “Of course, I have to educate the customers to provide change requests or text corrections through this means, and not by telephone or email. But, all things considered, it helps all of us — it really is faster, and, above all, it eliminates contradictory corrections made by the customer, as everyone can see all comments.”

Prior to printing, the data must be processed. To do this, Bös separates the design into individual parts. Exporting to PDF in the desired standard is a breeze with CorelDRAW. The Preflight check ensures production reliability, and large-format print output is no problem. 

As for the films, Bös relies on tested and approved material — this is important to avoid damage to the car paint and to ensure that the wrap is durable and can easily be removed, if necessary. At the General Wrapping Association (GEWA) there is a vivid exchange of materials, processing, and application. “Unfortunately, there are many black sheep who simply wrap the cars. As car wrapper is not a protected profession, anyone can offer this service. With GEWA, we want to set a standard customers can rely on. For members of the association, it goes without saying that training, workshops, and sound expert information are an important aspect.”
