I don`t do a lot of posting of work, just takes too much of my time (single parent, 3 teenage boys, running own businesses... k - nuff said?) but maybe this will change.... Anyway been doing these trucks for a few years now, Monster, Kawasaki, KTM, Yahama, etc...
These are of truck #2 for this year`s MDK team (pic`s of #1 & #3 will follow sometime soon). These are Vinyl wrapped and when they apply the wrap, it leaves behind some fairly healthy marring/scratching. After many sessions of testing on scrap pieces over the years I`m happy to say that I`ve nailed down processes to remove them without damaging, burning, or fading the material.... (don`t ask -- I`m calling it a "trade secret") to leave them looking great for the first race of the season. I`ll divulge that is a two step process and I do have to break out the Rotary (yes, the rotary). This vinyl unfortunatly, is even scratched by micro-fibers so the first time they brush wash these black beauties at a truck wash, they`ll be on their own).
well without further ado... here we go...
(man that`s allot of black!)
(side one done....)
(side two half way there... look close under the "MU" and you can make out the scaffolding)
(side two done... )
(little closer of the finished product...)
(thanks Hugo--couldn`t do these monstrosities by my self)
We (three of us) also did the cab & wheels.
And, for those who will ask, arrival time 10:30AM -- departure time 4:15PM (includes a 45 minute lunch break).
