Three-day training offered by Groupe Polyalto, given by instructor Justin Pate.

Justin Pate, Avery Dennison-certified wrap installer

Car wrapping expert Justin Pate began his career in New York in 1996. Since then, he has wrapped over 3,000 vehicles.

After carefully studying the graphic installation process, Justin developed a highly efficient car wrapping platform called the Universal Graphics Installation System (UGIS). Using UGIS, Justin can comfortably wrap almost any vehicle by himself in under five hours. Some vehicles, like vans, can be done in two hours.

Justin teaches the UGIS system, among other tips and tricks, in workshops around the world. The courses he gives are officially approved by Avery Dennison in North America.

During this three-day course, you will learn how to prepare the vehicles for wrapping, the main tools you need, wrapping strategies, some common mistakes to avoid, design and vinyl installation tricks and basic business tips for the field. This is vital training for anyone looking to improve their installation skills.

Using UGIS, you will be able to comfortably and quickly wrap almost any vehicle by yourself in under five hours, like Justin does. Some vehicles, like vans, can be wrapped more quickly (approx. two hours).
