Is there mud flaps on the front wheels or does he have wheels on it that stick out past the body that might be flipping up rocks?

Anybody recognize this? Would be greatly appreciated.

Searched all over to try and match this font and at the end of my ropes. Customer has no idea what it is but wants this exact font. Does anyone recognize it?

I race mods and late models at our local asphalt track so I usually do about 10 racecars a year for guys that we race with that know the type of work I do and are willing to pay my prices. If I wasn't involved with racing I probably wouldn't want to do racecar graphics either. There really isn't...

Yep, turning down work that is going to be a PITA or not profitable is perfectly fine and SMART. I find myself turning down more and more as we are getting busier with commercial type work. I have pretty much cut out all work that people want on their personal vehicles and small jobs as they are...

That's an eye opener. I have 2008, 2012, 2013 and 2015 Oracal color charts. In the 2008, the 851 series there is nothing stated about Brilliant Blue having a different lifespan. The 2012 only states 4 year on the 751 series, nothing about the 951 in brilliant blue. The 2013 states nothing about...

We charge $175 per hour for our truck with 2 man crew (truck is a 55', 2 man bucket with material handler). Time starts once we arrive on the site and stops once we leave the site. We also have a trip charge depending on the distance from our shop. Bucket trucks are not cheap. Ours started...

It looks like Grimco has 3M 5100R series in Royal Purple.

I usually have nothing but good things to say about Grimco but was irritated when I went to place an order a couple days ago. They had sent out an email a couple of weeks ago about a "March Madness" sale on MaxMetal and it was all over their Facebook too. The sale was running from March 11 -...

I'm not 100% certain but I believe IJ35C is monomeric calendered. I would stay away from anything monomeric unless it's for temporary / short term graphics.

I've never seen a way to automatically make it a fraction but if you click on the dimension and go into design central there is a "lock" icon that you can click on that allows you to manually edit the dimension text. You can then type it in as a fraction.

I've got a construction company that I do a bunch of 13" door decals for. They generally buy 1 to 2 new trucks every month as they only keep them for about 5 years. I use 3M 40C with 8518 overlaminate for them and it works great. The IJ180CV3 is the way to go though if you want to get the...

If a new customer walks in the door wanting a set of 12" x 24" magnets they generally will end up costing them about $90. Design time is billed by the hour and you can figure you will spend an hour between actual design time and the time spent initially taking the order and going back and forth...

Especially the additional cost of labor when it comes time to remove them. We had areas that needed removed after trimming that were just lightly tacked down and the vinyl just wanted to chip away in small pieces like reflective.

I installed a couple wraps on beverage trailers that were made the same way. It was IJ180 with liquid overlaminate and app tape. Guess it's a whole lot cheaper for those big print houses to do it that way than just to do a film overlaminate with no app tape. Install wasn't too bad but I didn't...

schoolofracinggraphics.com has some templates, vector designs, number packs and some other stuff for creating racing wraps. Unfortunately, they do not appear to have a micro sprint template.

You can use a normal roll to roll laminator to mount prints or you can get a flatbed laminator such as a RollsRoller, CWT, etc.

I received a flyer from Cheetahwraps. Never bought anything from them before but occasionally I will buy from Fellers but I haven't received anything from them yet.

That's what I was wondering. In no way am I TRYING to get these jobs as they are too much of a PITA unless I am getting well compensated for it. I just kinda got pulled into helping with it then they wanted to know if I would just do them..... I'll throw them a price and if they don't like it I...
