It is not so much a template, as it is what my Xpel installer has...patterns are downloaded into a laser cutter which then produces the proper shape/size with excellent cut lines. OP, just call a few Xpel dealers and ask when they expect the file to be downloaded to their equipment. |
Yes, most installers do the same. They download the template and the machine cuts it per template but not all templates are equally designed; some don't even have folded edges, corners, etc. Templates are primarily used to help save installation time for the installer.
Any good/experienced installer doesn't need the template; they can lay a blank sheet on any panel and cut where needed for a perfect fit and finish around edges and corners.
