What I do to make bank...

Post by mike93hatch »

to do 75 vans a day is 12 hours for you...

you put them on with no water or heat gun? how do they not get bubbles?

im suprised how you could just rip the backing off the decals after putting them on. ive never put any decals on that i was able to do that lol. must be some damn good decals..

Actually, the decals are pretty crappy quality, otherwise I could do it a lot faster. As for the no bubbles factor, it's just an experience thing.

Since they're all going on a relatively flat surface there's no need for heat (I actually use a propane blowtorch; it's a lot faster) and the fact that I don't use water is the reason I can peel the premask so quickly.

I've been doing this for almost 4 years now and I never use soap or water for anything; it just slows me down. Lol

I'm gonna ninja some decals away from work and on the next cruise the Fodo will be available for rent from U-Haul for $19.95!
:biglaugh:
It may as well be a U-Haul. It's usually one of the biggest cars at the cruises anyways.
Ribs. I had ribs for lunch, that's why I'm doing this.

thats an awesome job man, probably fun to do, but i'm sure it takes some practice. I mean who is good at wrapping vehicles like that? must be hard to find people that do that. Good Skill! Good Idea.

Hey! I have a life!

It's just that I only get to live it 3-4 months out of the year.
