Computer Cut - Self Adhesive - Vinyl Lettering

VINYL LETTERING FOR VEHICLES

Commercial Vehicle Graphics are the most effective form of Advertising and are a relatively small investment for the benefits gained, especially as most of the time your vehicle is presented to your target customers.

If you go to a sign maker for vehicle signage, you can expect to pay
in the region of £200 to £600, for a transit van for example, and they
will normally require your van for at least one day, possibly longer.

Ordering from signKraft allows you to do a bit at a time, saving you
  'off the road' time as well as cost.

Not to mention the personal satisfaction
you will get by doing it yourself !!

DESIGN TIPS FOR LETTERING

Remember that more often than not your livery is being read whilst
your vehicle is in motion, so clear, readable text is recommended.

You can also use a bolder and/or different font or a
different colour to highlight your name or name of the business.

Vehicles are not always white, so choose colours that will contrast well against the background colour. If the vehicle is a dark colour, say dark blue, and your corporate colour is blue then choose either a lighter or darker blue and highlight your name with a contrasting colour outline.

It is always better where possible to contain your design within the panels of the vehicle, using the left panel for your name and the right for a brief description of your services.
This is not always possible, of course, but it does make the application of the lettering easier.

You will need a sharp knife (scalpel) to cut through the lettering
at door gaps and bodywork joins after application.
Also application is a bit more tricky when applying over raised or recessed panel edges.

Telephone numbers work well when separated, utilising the panel lower down. Remember, most people would rather write your telephone number down from your vehicle, than actually come and ask you for it!

LETTERING SIZE

It is a good idea to draw a rough sketch of both sides, rear and front of the vehicle
filling in the panel sizes and available space sizes first,
then decide what text you want and where.

A good rule of thumb to calculate the area your lettering will take up, is to multiply the height of the letter by the number of letters in the line. This will give you the approximate length of the line.  Of course this varies, depending on the font used, but don’t worry, when ordering, you should give us the measurements of the space you want to mark up, and we will adjust accordingly.

GRAPHICS AND LOGO’S

We can reproduce most graphics or logos to your specified size
providing you can supply us with suitable artwork.
There will be a one off setup charge for this, depending on the quality of artwork
and the complexity of the design. We will quote you separately for this on receipt of artwork.
We will keep your design on file for future reordering, thus avoiding this charge again.

Finally, please visit our Help Page, where you will find instructions on fitting your signs, and remember, take your time and don't panic, and you will find that it is relatively easy to do, fun and satisfying.
