How to Apply and Care for your Magnetic Signs

Magnetic signs are a great way to transform an ordinary vehicle into a "rolling advertisement" without having any permanent graphics applied to your vehicle. Magnetic signs are easily applied and easily removed. They are very popular for people that use their personal vehicle for work, but still want to advertise their company. They are also popular for people that live or work in areas where "work trucks" are not allowed.

The following article will give you some tips on how to apply and position your magnetic signs to your vehicle. We will also give you some advice on how to care for your magnetic signs so they will last for a very long time.


Applying and Positioning
Applying your magnetic signs to your vehicle is a very simple process as there is no adhesive involved at all. It is literally as simple as sticking a magnet to your refrigerator. Positioning your magnetics, on the other hand, can be a bit tricky. First, clean both the car and the back of the magnetic sign. Soap and water is all you need. To position your sign, we recommend holding your magnetic sign by the sides, allowing it to dip in the middle, forming a "U" shape. Place the center (low part of the "U") first, and then place the sides. This technique better allows you to see if your sign is straight. If you don't like the position of your sign, DO NOT slide your magnetic into place. Sliding it will cause you do drag any debris from the car right across your car's paint job. Simply lift the magnetic off of your vehicle, and reposition it again until you are satisfied.


Care and Maintenance

• Store your magnetic signs on a flat surface. Keeping your signs on wavy surfaces will cause your magnetics to become wavy, especially in cold weather. If this happens, it is more likely that your signs may come off during driving.
• Clean your magnetics regularly. Every couple of weeks, remove your signs, and clean the back of them as well as the area of your vehicle that you use your signs.
• DO NOT drive on the expressway with your signs on your vehicle. Although the bond of magnetic signs is very strong, they are not made to withstand the winds caused by traveling at high speeds.
• Remove your magnetic signs before going through a car wash. The high pressure hoses, as well as the brushes in car washes can knock your signs off your vehicle.

Getting Work From Your Work Truck

Many people don't realize just how many people see your vehicle on a daily basis. With vehicle graphics or magnetic signs, every car you pass is a potential customer. Every other driver on the road can see your company name, your services, your phone number and your logo. You can transform your work vehicle into a rolling billboard for your company. Whether on the road or parked in front of a job site, your work vehicle can be doing your advertising work for you! The best part of having graphics on your vehicle is that your advertising always reaches YOUR customers because it goes where you go. It works where you work!

Vinyl vehicle graphics can be applied to your company vehicle in any color, size or shape you like. You can add your logo or any other artwork you like to draw the attention of your potential customers. Large photographs can be applied to your vehicle as well. Your vehicle can be as simple or as flashy as you would like. The possibilities are only limited by your imagination.

Although vinyl graphics are removable, maybe you don't want something quite as "permenant" as putting vinyl directly on your vehicle. Magnetic signs are the perfect solution. Magnetic signs are outdoor durable and can be applied to any vehicle. Although usually smaller than vinyl graphics, magnetic signs are still a very effective way to advertise your business, while still having the option of removing your signs at any time. This is a great option for people that use their personal vehicle for work, or if your homeowners association doesn't allow work vehicles in your neighborhood.
