Embossed Truck Wrap in Matte Purple Metallic

embossed truck wrap, logo embossing with matte purple metallic truck wrapLilac City Roofing wanted to turn their tan Ford F250 into an eye popping advertising machine. We did just that with a full metallic truck wrap, complete with custom truck embossing.  This wrap features Avery Matte Purple Metallic premium wrapping film. The company icon is subtly embossed on the driver door panel. 

Embossing is easy to accomplish, and it looks incredible.

Creating an embossed graphic simply requires two layers of film. The first layer applied to the vehicle is usually a cut logo, lettering, or even a graphic pattern. The second layer is applied and smoothed over the vehicle just like any other color change wrap. Because of the conform-ability of the wrap material, the first layer of cut graphics shows through.  For this project, matte purple metallic film was used to cover the cut logo graphic, creating an embossed effect that can be seen and felt.

The design possibilities are endless. 

  • You can use embossing for advertising effects, as in an embossed logo.
  • Add subtle personalization to your vehicle.
  • Try carbon fiber embossing, honeycomb, or other textured pattern.
  • You can even apply it in layers for more intricate effects.

Installation

Embossing adds an extra step to the vehicle wrap process, but one that is well worth the extra time. Our certified installers use the same best techniques as they use for a traditional single-layer wrap installation.  They carefully place and apply each layer. Finally, the top layer is pressed tightly around the contours of the lower layer(s) to give the best embossing effect.   

An embossed truck wrap adds a unique element of style.  Increase visibility and make a good impression with embossed truck graphics.

A Rebranding Wrap Unifies Marketing

Cash Machine Color Change Wrap

We can wrap almost anything!  Even a rebranding wrap. What is a rebranding wrap, you ask? For this project, we designed a color change wrap on a cash machine for the First Interstate Bank merger. 

Since Community 1st Bank merged with First Interstate Bank earlier this year, they had some ATMs to rebrand. Rebranding helps unify marketing and spreads brand awareness. More importantly, during a merger such as this one, it helps customers know where to find you. The sleek matte black ATM wrap matches other First Interstate cash machines and makes them easy to recognize. 

Our high performance self-adhesive vinyl adheres to almost any surface, smooth or rough. Our wrap certified installers make sure the wrap goes on smooth and looks seamless. Wraps last 5-7 years with proper maintenance, so your rebranding will look great for years to come.

A custom printed wrap or color change wrap can simplify rebranding. Wrapping film can be used to change a color or background, or it can be custom printed for advertising purposes. In addition, wrap film adheres to almost anything, so it could be the perfect solution for your rebranding project.

Other interesting wraps we have done include a change machine, a pinball machine, a countertop and a cooler. Whether you need restoration, marketing, or brand unifying, we can help with that!  What can we rebrand or re-create for you?

4 Things We Love about Color Change Wraps

All our color change wraps are done with Avery Supreme Wrapping Film, and we stock several colors including Matte Black vinyl.  We love Avery’s color change wrap film for several reasons, including how great it looks when it’s installed on a vehicle.  These four reasons sum up why color change wraps are also incredibly easy to install with Avery’s color change wrap film.

  1. Avery color change car wrap vinyl

    It’s thin. Avery Supreme Wrapping Film is thinner than many other high-performance vinyl films, so we can use less heat when installing it.  “Using less heat prevents over-stretching of the film, which compromises the adhesive.  The adhesive doesn’t get as good contact with the vehicle, and it can also create visual defects in the vinyl,” Signs for Success certified installer Chris Komski explained.

  2. It comes pre-laminated. Lamination protects the color from UV ray and other wear and tear which can cause fading over time. “It’s already laminated so that saves us time,” Chris noted.  As with any business, time is money.
  3. Air-release channels make install easy. On the back of the vinyl, you can see tiny little hexagons whose outlines form air-release channels throughout the material.  During installation, smoothing the vinyl out over contours is simple because “you can push any air bubbles out through the network of channels,” Rich said. Most other wrap vinyl requires smoothing carefully over the vinyl several times before all the air bubbles can be pushed out the edges of the material.
  4. Matte black truck wrap color change installed at Signs for Success

    Finally, it’s less aggressive, “aggressive” meaning how tacky the vinyl adhesive is. Less aggressive adhesive makes installation much easier since material can be repositioned if necessary throughout the process. Post heating the material once the placement is perfect ensures a permanent hold.  When installing the matte black vinyl for John’s truck wrap, “we exposed the whole back and were able to move it around to adjust the placement.  With [other car wrap vinyls], we wouldn’t have been able to do that,” Chris explained.

Avery’s wrapping film is a high-quality and install-friendly vinyl to work with, and we are excited to continue using it.  Contact us for more information on color change wraps, or to get a free quote on a color change wrap Spokane!
