In addition, the 3M Wrap2Wrap Battle is decided with a live wrap competition, not just pictures.

“After the success of last year’s inaugural Wrap2Wrap battle, we’re excited to see the skill and craftsmanship presented by this year’s contestants,” said Doug Blackwell, Business Development Manager, 3M. “The 3M Wrap2Wrap Battle is a celebration of the talent in our industry. Not only do we incorporate 3M design managers as part of the judging panel, we also provide an opportunity for car enthusiasts to vote for their favorite design and a live wrap competition.”

 

Online voting throughout four rounds will give graphics installers a chance to showcase their exceptional work, and will determine the finalists from both the East and West regions. The top finalists from the East and West regions will receive an all-expense-paid trip to the 2015 SEMA Show to star in a live wrap battle on November 5.

 

During this final live round, contenders will direct 3M Preferred Graphics Installers on the SEMA Show floor. A panel of celebrity and expert judges will help determine the 2015 champion, including:
