Since I have dealt with the local sign shop on projects, have done much vinyl wrapping, and spent time with professionals. I can attest to the quality of companies like 3M, Avery, Oracal,Vivid and many others. When I first started learning to wrap vinyl I tried some of the China vinyl from ebay and the quality was not there. “Do you really think” is not my idea of a valid reference.
