Sponsored by Hexis, the feature will run on all four days of the event. The workshops will take place on 7 and 8 December, hosted by World Wrap Masters judge Ole Solskin Ravn and the competition on the 9 and 10 December.
The workshop on 7 December will be relevant for entry-level vehicle installers and will provide visitors with top tips and the basic application techniques to get started in vehicle wrapping. During the session visitors will also have the opportunity to wrap part of a vehicle themselves.
For visitors with existing vehicle wrapping experience, the medium-advanced level workshop on 8 December will show the latest techniques and approaches to wrapping and will look in more detail at tackling difficult vehicle areas.
