Everyone is looking for great ways to market their businesses, whether you’re a multi-million dollar business or a small business, one of the most cost effective ways to advertise your business 24/7 is with custom car decals and car wraps.   One of the most important things to do is make sure you source the right graphic designer who is experienced with creating vehicle wrap designs, as there are several factors designers have to keep in mind to create a successful project.

A few things designers should keep in mind when designing:

1.)  Before designing on a template take pictures of the vehicle, and take exact measurements of each pieces

2.)  Note any complex curves, molding, trims, door handles etc.  It’s imperative all of these things are noted so that when the wrap is printed and applied no pictures or text is put in areas that can interfere with the design elements, which can turn a good design into a bad design

3.)  Once you start designing on a vehicle template make sure you create a new layer so that it easy for the print product team to turn outlines on and off, you do not want the vehicle outlines to print.

4.)  Make sure all company details (phone number, website, address, social media info, and logos are prominent and placed in areas of maximum visibility.

5.)  Keep branding consistent so you have brand recognition amongst potential and existing clients

6.)  Key factors for great design:

-Color

-Message

-& images

-If these 3 things are used in the correct way you should have a moving billboard, whether you’re moving in traffic or parked in a parking lot.

Following these guidelines for car wrap designing will be an effective way to attract new clients immediately.  A Great thing about car wraps is that they can last anywhere from three to seven years depending on the type of film used and if it’s installed properly.  Always be sure to make sure the company you’re dealing with has a guarantee on their car wrap installation.  At Trendz Print Media all of our wraps are guaranteed for a minimum of five years from any lifting of the graphics.  If the wrap begins to wear before this time our clients can come back and have it replaced, as long as the wrap has been cared for in the proper nature. With product durability like this, business can’t afford to not have vehicle wraps applied to their cars or fleets.

Car wrap vinyl has special properties in them that protect your paint and ensure no damage is done to the car once you want to remove the car wrap.  Being able to remove the vinyl is perfect for businesses that are leasing vehicles, or owners who may want to sell their vehicle in the future.

Trendz Print Media is a Vancouver Printing Company that is on the rise for our unique vehicle wrap applications.   We’ve said it once it once and we will say it again we LOVE our vehicle wraps!

Right now the newest craze on the streets of Vancouver, is the Mobile food trucks and carts.  Last spring we were contact by Katie and Jeff of Slingers, to create a graphic designed vehicle wrap, for there massive food truck.   Like any other project we’ve taken on the “kick-ass” duo had a consultation with our Vancouver graphic Design services team and came up with an initial concept.   After a few drafts we had a finalized product, which was exactly what Katie and Jeff we’re looking for!

After the finalized draft we got the vehicle wrap into production right away.   We printed there vehicle wrap on a MacTac car wrap vinyl, which is specifically made for vehicles, which has a memory in the vinyl to form around complex curves and contours which regular vinyl’s just can’t do.   Once the graphics were all printed we let the ink cure for 48 hours, then we finish it off with a Rayzor over lam, and then our staff trimmed all panels to size.   After all of the finishing was done, the vehicle came in and we are sure to thoroughly clean the vehicle to remove any dirt or grim, if this process isn’t done then you can have severe defects with your application down the road.   After we clean it we let the food truck sit indoors for 24 hours, which also assists in the wraps going on successfully.

Create a customized graphic designed food truck wrap, to match the uniqueness of your food!

Once we took all of the necessary steps we started the wrap, and let me tell you food trucks by far are one of thee most biggest projects we have taken on to date, but it was one of the most rewarding once everything was complete.   So if you are looking for a vehicle wrap in Vancouver, contact the staff at Trendz print Media for a customized quote on graphic design services and vehicle wrap.
