At Trendz Print Media we never shy away from a challenge.  One of the things we do most is car decal projects.  We specialize in doing a variety of vehicle decal projects including fleet graphics.

To ensure a successful vehicle decal application, here are a few steps we take to get the job done flawlessly.

1.)Always make sure your blade ‘s are sharp in your cutter, and that you have done a test cut before starting the entire project.  This ensures a clean smooth cut, and easy removal of excess vinyl, as well as costly re-do’s.   When removing all excess vinyl from the decal, if it’s a larger piece you can do it in sections by using an exacto knife to aid in the process.

2.) Once all of the access vinyl has been removed from the decal the next step is to mask the decal.  The “mask” is basically a thin layer of adhesive transfer tape applied over the decal and the backing paper.  In order to do the masking this will require two people, and in order to have a successful application it is imperative that the right amount of tension is used when apply to avoid wrinkles and bubbles. In order to lay the transfer tape over properly use a “hard squeegee” If this is done properly you should be able to apply to the vehicle without any problems.

3.) After the decal has been masked the next thing to do is trim the excess backing paper and transfer tape so your decal is as close to the edge as possible, if you do this especially when using light colored vinyl it will make it easier when you measuring to get accurate positioning.

4.) Next step is installation, and there are a few things that must be done before installation to ensure the decal’s durability.  Before a client drops off the vehicle you must have the client bring in the vehicle washed.   If the vehicle has just been washed before drop off make sure the vehicle is able to dry in-doors for at least 24 hours before the installation.  Before any vinyl is applied to the surface of the vehicle make sure the surface has been prepped with isoboprofonal alcohol.

5.) Installation!   After prepping the surface place the decal on the surface and measure from a line on the vehicle, or the ground (if it’s level).  Once you have it positioned correctly fasten it to the surface with green tape to secure it.  Depending on the size, that’s what determines how much tape and where to apply the tape.

6.) Once the positioning is correct, and it’s been secure with tape, a section should be unsecure for you to start applying.   You do this by peeling the transfer tape (with decal stuck to it) upward, and then trimming away that excess backing paper.  Take that piece of transfer tape with the decal and lay it down with tension and again using the squeegee work you way for he center working you way to the edge’s, and then do this to the other sections of the decal until it is complete.  Once the decal has been completely laid down remove the excess transfer tape.

7.) Last step is to remove any bubbles from the application with a pin or exacto knife, by creating a prick in the vinyl so you can push out the air with a squeegee or your finger.  If the decals are for long-term use always seal the decals with a torch or a heat gun.

Spring is here and that means businesses and people are coming out of hibernation mode. Lately we have been taking on a some unique complex projects, which keeps our staff motivated and on top of their game. One of our recent projects was from Red Bull Canada, doing customized vinyl wraps for their fridge coolers.

We were originally approached about the project from Red bull’s graphic designer located in Toronto. They provided us with specs, branding guidelines, and ETA of completion dates. Once our quote had been approved we received artwork, and prepared sample’s immediately, to have couriered out to Toronto next day. When dealing with any clients it is imperative that all art wok be approved with a hard copy sample, especially when you’re dealing with clients who aren’t local, so they know exactly what they are getting.

As expected once the client received the hard copy proofs they were more then happy the quality of the printed materials. We printed the materials on a Mac Tac gloss calendar vinyl, and finished it with a rayzor gloss over lamination for protection and durability. A key factor when doing any sort of wide format printing is to make sure once the print is complete to let the print cure for 24 hours before applying any lamination, or doing any install work with the print.

For this job we were required to wrap 10 baby fridge’s, and 10 regular sized red bull fridges. Each fridge consisted of a right, and left panel, as well as a front panel. Once we had the vinyl prints complete, we went on site to Red Bull’s distribution warehouse located in Vancouver to complete the install. The install was a two day process, which was fairly straight forward with no complications.
