Everyday
the doom
and
gloom
news
media
tells us
all
about
how bad
things
are with
the
economy
and no
one is
suggesting
how we
fix it.
In every
financial
downturn
in
history
there
were
also
fortunes
made.
Right
now
there
are
multiple
opportunities
to
create a
tremendous
cash
stream.
The
question
is,
“Which
companies
will
recognize
the
opportunities,
respond
to them,
and
thrive?”
This
article
is about
one such
opportunity
currently
presenting
itself
in the
signage
and
trucking
industries.
I
recognize
the
opportunity
because
it is
near and
dear to
me.
What
is it?
Well let
me
outline
what I
see and
work
into it:
New
truck
sales
are way
down.
The
numbers
are
about
the
lowest

since
the

Learning what
vinyl film is,
the impact that
the environment
and the surface
finish has on
vinyl are all
factors that
will help you
deal with the
ultimate need to
remove vinyl
graphics.
Let's begin
with what vinyl
is. Polyvinyl
Chloride (PVC)
is a chemical
species used to
produce flexible
vinyl film which
in turn is used
to produce a
wide variety of
protective and
decorative film
products. One
such class of
products,
referred to as
"graphic film",
possesses unique
features that
make them well
suited to
decorate mobile
and stationary
surfaces exposed
to the public
eye.
The unique
features of
vinyl "graphic
film" are
achieved through
the use of an
opaque vinyl
film whose
surface receives
colorful,
ink-based,
printed messages
and images; and
whose underside
is typically
coated with a

Taking
Care of
Your
Vehicle
Graphics |
From
plasticsign.com
By Dennis Lasik |
| Installing graphics is only part of the job of selling wraps and flat surface installs. You need to make sure your end user is aware of how to properly care for their graphics once they are installed.
I’ve been in the graphics business for over thirty years. During those years, especially during my fleet graphics experience, I’ve seen countless “material failures” settled with the manufacturer, printer, or the installer taking all or part of the blame for failures that just plain were not their fault.
The scenario usually goes something like this: A customer has graphics applied to a vehicle or fleet with clear expectations of at least several years of service from the job, (I hear the rule is half the amount of time the sales rep sells as fact; an
