    hey, thats nice and clean, I saw you were having probs with the logo and how to do it, great result from what I can see of the small image. I like the ‘Watermark’ phrase, I will use it when discribing that technique.

    Just my preference really, but I would have put the name up on the top panel by the watermark welder, and the square logo down where you put the name.
    It looks clean but reads a bit odd.
    love….Jill

    another pic

    just wanted to add when i did the design for this van the customer said the van had side mouldings as the later ones have
    the logo water mark was designed to finish on the top of the moulding and i think would have looked better,the van came in after i had cut all the vinyl only to find no mouldings however i still managed to finish on the body line as shown

    Great job!

    I love "clean" looking designs, and incorporate the watermark effect in a lot of stuff I do (Signs, Business Cards etc.) Only thing that bothers me, if you view the van from behind, it seems Weldmet are experts in welding Peogeots! Could’nt you convince the customer to remove the name? I usually remove them, and fit new double sided tape, so the customer can refit them when the car is sold.

    PS We have a Metallic Silver Pick-Up truck. I tried "charcoal" signage on it (the lack of contrast seems to force you to pay more attention!), and would love to do a full colour wrap (or partial wrap), but I am at a loss as what to do.

    Will post some pictures of wraps I did for MTC (Mobile Telecommunications, Namibia) I did appx 30 vehicles for them. I’ll look for pics on my bacup CD’s. If I can figure out how to do the posts.
