Oh my gosh, I was hired to do an install job. Part of it included putting on a 165in by 38in slab-O-Reflective vinyl on a trailer. I'm on my scaffold with my feet about 5 feet off the ground. I thought, "How the heck am I going to get this on in one piece?" And then I noticed the seams, the Seams! I cut the vinyl at one of the seams and put it on in two pieces instead of one. Brillient! After I hit the rest with the heat gun, the rest of the vinyl melted into the rest of the seams and the cut seam just blended into the rest of the seams.

Way to go. That's also a handy trick when painting a large piece of equipment, and you can't do it all at once. Or, you're fixing the paint on part of it. (You mask at the seam)
