Designing your vehicle signage & getting it right from the start.
As with most excellent company branding it starts with a well thought out plan followed by smart execution. With 20yrs experience in doing just that, our team can assist you in stamping your mark on your personal car or fleet of vehicles.
Here’s a few tips on what works best:
Speak with your signage expert and get advice on the options and materials available before you go too far down the design path. This can open up ideas that you haven’t thought of and save you money in the long run.
Be consistent with your story. Does your business card match your apparel and intern match your vehicle signage ? If not think again. Making your message clear, strong & consistent is key to building your company image.
Lettering and logos on vehicles.
There are several different types of vinyl available for use on vehicles, each of them having unique properties for various applications. At Stewart Brown Signs we use Avery as our preferred brand due to the wide colour range available and extended lifetime durability under the Australian sun. If you have a PMS colour for your logo, chances are that we have a vinyl colour to match.
One Way Vision
For those who are unfamiliar with the product, One Way Vision is a perforated vinyl film which can be printed & applied to glass windows The amazing part is that it appears invisible when viewed from inside the window looking out. There are lots of brands of One Way Vision on the market, but the ones to look out for are the brands that are RTA endorsed. At Stewart Brown Signs we use an RTA endorsed film with a protective over laminate. We can print photos, logos and lettering onto this film and match it up with adhesive vinyl graphics which may be applied to the duco of the car, giving you a complete look.
Magnetic signs
There are a few things worth knowing if you are considering magnetic signs.Get your signage expert to do a measure up for you. It's free & will ensure that the magnetics fit perfectly & don't fly off when you're traveling down the road. Remove your magnetics signs when you wash your car and clean the back of the signs with warm water. Leave them in the shade to dry & then re fit them when the car is dry.If you need to store them, keep the magnetics lying flat to avoid edge curl. We can provide a plastic sleeve on request.You may from time to time hear bad comments about magnetic signs, but generally speaking it's poor maintenance that leads to problems. Get that part right & you've got it made.
