Atlas Tree Service - before they decided to use vehicle graphics. .[/caption]
A vehicle magnet can be the best choice for someone who wants to advertise part time. This would be someone who might use their vehicle for personal as well as professional, or a person who might have several different businesses to advertise. I personally believe that if you are going to advertise, you need to advertise all the time, whether you are in the church parking lot, the grocery store or on the freeway. . Magnets tend to be a little more expensive for square foot than cut graphics, (just to let you know). The following is a list of dos and don'ts for your magnets.
Expectations
Your sign is made from the finest state of the art magnetic material available to bring you the best in magnetic mobile advertising. As with anything kept outside, it will weather and fade over time, but proper care can make it last longer.
Note: We can not be held responsible for any misapplication or misuse of your signage.
Installation:
First wash and wipe your vehicle clean, and then dry it.
Second, wax the vehicle surface in the spot where you will display the sign.
Third, touch the magnetic sign to the vehicle. If it isn’t exactly where you want it, remove it and replace it, don’t slide it. Do not apply a magnetic sign to a newly painted vehicle. Allow at least 60 days for fresh paint to cure. (Check with the paint specifics for your state.)
Cleaning
Remove your sign from the vehicle once a week and wash both the vehicle and the front and back of the sign. Relax the vehicle, Put the sign back on in a slightly different spot each time. To clean the surface of the face of the magnetic sign, use a sponge and mild detergent. Do not immerse in water. Wipe dry. Never steam clean signs or take them through the car wash.
Storage
Magnetic signs must be stored either flat on a metal surface or rolled up in a tube. WARNING! Do not store magnetic signs unrolled and unprotected inside a hot vehicle. The passenger compartment of your car, truck or van can reach temperatures similar to an oven, especially when the windows are closed. These extremely high temps can distort and destroy your signs unless they are rolled up in a tube. The best way to store magnetic signs when not on your vehicle is to keep them rolled (with the magnetic side in and printed side out) in a common, inexpensive mailing tube. A 3 inch diameter tube is is ideal - do not use a smaller tube. Do not roll signs tightly - roll as large as can easily fit into the tube. Temperature need not be a concern when the sign is attached to the side of the vehicle. Do not damage signs by folding, creasing, or putting heavy objects on top of them. If signs should get severely bent out of shape due to poor maintenance, do not use them. They can usually be straightened by placing them on a flat metal surface for a day or so, such as a filing cabinet, desk or refrigerator. . . This is also a great way to store your signs when not in use.
