This installation demonstrates a metallic grey finish placed along a vehicle body line. The video shows an installer creating a hidden seam across a bumper panel using an inlay and an overlay. By positioning cuts directly along the body contour, the overlap blends into the surface.
Step-by-Step Seam Process
The installer walks through the proper order for knifeless tape:
- Lay the first piece of knifeless tape along the body line for the inlay.
- Pull the tape all the way through the first inlay piece and remove the excess vinyl.
- Position a second piece of knifeless tape for the overlay piece.
- Lay out the overlay and work out all the air from behind the vinyl.
- Pull the second piece of knifeless tape all the way through and remove the excess material.
Film Construction
Aura Vinyl vinyl wrap features a cast polymer hybrid build with German-made adhesive for easier repositioning and fewer glue lines. The PET-backed finish helps provide a smooth, flat look across complex panels.
FAQ

First, place knifeless tape along the edge and apply the inlay. Next, pull the tape completely through the film and remove the excess material.
How do you hide an overlay seam on a car wrap?
Place a second run of knifeless tape along the body line and lay down the overlay vinyl. Squeegee out all trapped air behind the film, then pull the tape through and remove the excess material.
