ProWraps- What you said all sounds accurate. I'm sure that I could have bought my equipment for a little less from SW, but Fellers did negotiate with me. Our first 1604 had a TON of problems and Mutoh didn't do much but limp the thing through the warranty. After that, it had more (worse)...

You HAVE to use optically clear laminate. Otherwise you can't see anything out the window and you might as well just wrap it with 3951.

Fellers will deal with you. They may not match price exactly, but what ever extra you pay will be worth it. Their tech support is absolutely the best in the industry, they talked to me at 10 p.m. on a Saturday because I needed tech help. Our sales rep doesn't come around much but he's there when...

I like the solvex. We normally use Oracal on all vehicle applications but it is much more difficult to install. I put the Solvex on my truck and so far, so good. We removed a wrap last week that another shop installed. I'm pretty sure they used 3M. It was a little over 2 years old and was not...

Looks good! It's nice to know I'm not the only one who realizes the quality benefits of removing obstacles like handles, trim, lights and mirrors.

Cool stuff. Everybody swipes a 'lil Kafka now and then! I'm guilty too.

Here's a box truck we wrapped last week. Then we did 25 yard signs and 2 banners to match... this week we have to remove a failing wrap from another shop and wrap his Toyota Sienna to match.

Patrick46... Please post pics of said project truck (and maybe the chop too)! The last couple projects that I finished are a 64 Impala SS and 1944 HD knucklehead based chop. I'm working on finishing the basement at the house, I have phase one complete (wood stove on raised hearth and stacked...

If the owner of leased land permits the renter to park a wrapped truck outside (or install a sign for that matter), it's really not the concern of anybody else. The owner of private property should be in control of it. Period. Even on public property, any parking regulations should be equally...

What if The Man simply will not let you have a proper permanent sign? If it's my property (or I lease it) and it's my truck, how can anybody legitimately argue that they should have more control over it than me? It's absurd.

Unsightly or not, these regulations remove the freedom of people to do as they choose with their own private property. I feel the same way about "historical district" rules, "highway beautification act," local signage restrictions, etc. I had it out with Pennsylvania DOT over the sign at my...

Gino, have you ever met a bureaucrat who gives a damn about any business? I haven't. They're all about asserting their "power." Regulations and permits have gotten out of hand with regard to more than just signage and vehicle graphics. It's getting ridiculous. Personal freedom and private...

This is basically why our qty of banners is low. Nobody wants to pay for 'em and I won't do 'em for free.

Slower than I'd like but there seems to be a lot on the horizon. I think it's going to be a pretty productive spring.

The Camaro is great, Tim. It looks like paint, you did an excellent job. I wish we had more customers like that!

I'm in his home area and only met him a few times. We made some banners in the days after his passing for memorial events. Coincidentally, I was thinking of him earlier today as well. I keep meaning to stop in the shop and see how Krista is doing but just don't get on that end of town much... I...

He is really big on everything going through him. He's spent the bulk of his life building his brand, so the custom paint is an option that goes through him as the manufacturer. I'm ok with it because they are very expensive high-end units and he pays us well for what we do for him. A check is...

I like it! What's a hard knox beer joint sign with no brass knuckles though?

Actually, I did both. The one that's doing the backflip is just cut vinyl on black gelcoat. The burt orange one is all paint, brother! The painted ones are all custom one-offs and those are his "signature edition" boats.

There is an adjacent article in the same issue that covers a freestyle demonstration that he performed. It's a pretty niche market and anybody in it knows who he is and what he's doing. He basically builds high-end freestyle PWCs and that's about it. I had less than an hour and only one shot at...
