  3. Cold-calling and gaining new clients.

  4. Application tape ?

    I would recommened a clear transfer tape so the customer is seeing what he/she is doing. I wouldnt use high tack because the vinyl may still stick to the transfer tape and not come off onto the window.
  5. Graphics on skateboarding surface?

    If you notice at skateparks (i did our local one) they only have graphics near the copeing (metal pole at the top of the half pipe, or the on the sides of the half pipe. Vinyl is much more slicker then masonite. If they insist on having it in the middle or such, apply it to the middle, but cut...

    Ill probably try to talk her out of it, or just get her to get a magnet, and put it on the metal, and not the window. She wants to take it off every weekend.
  7. Removable window decal?

    I have a customer who wants a large decal for the back of her jeep, but wants to remove it during the weekends. I would use a magnet, but obviously its going on a window so that wouldnt work. Im not familiar with static cling vinyl. Would this work? How long would this hold up if she took it...

  10. Price Check --- Wrapping vehicle Trim

    I had a guy who wanted his hood and trunk wrapped flat black. Came out very good. The hood even had a hood scoop. It takes alot of work and time, especially your first time. Since he was my friend i charged him 80 bucks, but i would charge around 400 bucks. You would be surprised how much effort...

  17. 4x8 Wall Sign

    I did a 12x6 sign with .60 thickness i believe. So far, so good with everything. I believe they have a .40 something as well. I would stay away from that. When you drill it to a surface it bends, and makes it look very bad.

  19. T-shirts???

    How many of you are doing this? Not many people do heat press vinyl. Most just use it to iron on names on jerseys, instead of making screens for names..
