Jolly to Pungky

Jolly Beans had an upgrade and is now Pungky Brewster.

Working with Marie was a delight. Keep it the same but different! Same polynesian feel with the greenery and flowers, but wanted this logo to more reflect her own character. So was born the caricature with her signature head band. Same colours, different fonts.

Installation of the Pungky Brewster van wrap

For a van this was a great one to wrap. Perfect size, flat, lights and fittings were so easily to remove. It was a dream!

Using the Hexis cast film made the installation a breeze as this product is specially dedicated to full wraps, wall wraps or complex surfaces (rivets, corrugated metal). The combination of highly conformable cast vinyls and the HEX’PRESS technology offers high-quality results while reducing the application time

HEY HO Knights LETS GO!

Another season for the Newcastle Knights means they score these awesome sponsor cars from Kelly Suzuki.

Have you seen the brilliant blue signs at Active Kitchens yet?

They look amazing! The blue triangular design really pops off the wall and hits you as you are driving up the road. Contrasting with the now grey not green it looks even better.

Great start to the 2018/19 wingless season

Brock was in awesome form for the start of his season racing. One would say he had wings not wingless.

In heat 3 he was positioned 6th and by the first corner was in 2nd position challenging for 1st position and he made the pass on lap 3 where he stayed for the rest of the race finishing in first position with a best lap time of 16.418 this was also the best of all the heats

The had a problem with the car in his 2nd heat dropped them to 4th before coming into the infield and shutting it down for the night even though

So proud of the way Brock drove in the first head it was home on Sunday and the preparation for this Saturday night is underway

They are racing at Valvoline Raceway Parramatta if your looking for a fun family night out come on down and say hello at the end of the race meeting come into the pits say hello meet the team and have a look at the car

Lucky their brand was well designed to accommodate for any format, so were able to design the decals to fit anywhere on the vehicle body.

The Think Team design was a bit different to what you would normally see on a traditional racing vehicle.

Instead of using a script font combined with a bold letter they created a modern look to suit the young driver Brock Gardiner.

Sharp, dynamic lines, bold colours contrasting against the stark black and white background with highlights of clear blue popping at different moments.

Meanwhile the truck holding the Racer was kept to a minimal design.

Very clean and easy to read from a distance keeping the sponsors happy.

Brock 

Gardiner Driver

Having first stepped into speedway in  the 2013-14 season, joining the Junior Sedans class where he raced a Ford Laser, Brock Gardiner spent 2 seasons honing his skills in the class, with his time being high lighted by a third place finish in the NSW Title at Grafton Speedway, I what was only his fourth ever race meeting.

After making the move into wingless sprints in 2015-16, the 19 year old racer from Heddon Greta has gained significant experience, along with building on his confidence and consistency, which he hopes to continue doing as he prepares to launch his third season.

What do you get when you cross a cat and a lemon? A sour puss

Racingsigns.com.au were racing the clock this week as they had to wrap a car ready for the Lemons 24hr racing rally.

It’s a breeding ground for inflated egos and God like status… in their own minds. It's where Mercedes and Mazda, Toyota and Hyundai do battle for the glory of gloating rights.

With the rules the car is not a pretty sight to start with so we didn't have a great deal to work with from the beginning.

But we managed to turn a lemon into lemonade.

LOL Racing team- Nana, Snowy, Cletus, Rowdy, Shiny and Loopy bubbled with excitement when they finally got to see the finished result

How good are the gold rims!

A mixture of vinyls were used on the job, but mostly Hexis car wrapping film for it's flexibility and ease of use.

Splash of colour here and there, simple layout as requested, and there you have it a race car!

                              There are some crazy and funny designs entered 

A layout was provided to us but we tweaked it a little it to make the Hunter Galvanizing logo pop that bit more.

Diamonds are forever

It is rare to find such gems to work with, but we were lucky enough to help Diamond rebrand their office space and vehicle graphics.

Jodie and Sam were great to collaborate with on this project. They knew what they wanted which really helps with the decision process. You can see the ladies seated in front of our privacy screen we installed for them

View fullsize

It was a bit exciting as the ladies were wanting to surprise their staff so we had to do a secret squirrel, which I found out meant we were undercover. This meant we had to attack this under the protection of darkness so no-one would see us.

Now I'm not sure if you know it but it is pretty hard to get water to evaporate in the freezing cold temperature, so this posed a little problem for us, but under the commandment of Jodie our mission was accomplished before the sun rose

Entering the building we installed a wall mount perspex sign with their logo-clean, simple

Diamond design team created some great posters which we mounted for them on PVC so they could place them around the office walls.

Pacific Holden has Courtesy wrapped up

Recently we applied new signage to Pacific Holden Gateshead's Customer Courtesy Vehicle. This not provides a great service to us the customers, but acts as a mobile advertising billboard as their happy customer drive around in this Astra.

The vehicle wrap was kept in same design as Pacific Holden's other vehicles 

This makes it easy to recognise and a memorable advertisment

Bold lettering, easy to read, a slight angle for a dramatic effect, and simple colour scheme with a band of red to grab your attention, is all that was needed for this sign to work.

Ned a great gift idea for that special person? Then we have it right here freshly wrapped and ready to go!

It's a new car!!!! The nifty Fiat 500 or the spacious 7 seater Freemont.

We recently did this job for McCarrolls Newcastle. This style of signage is designed to be eye catching and straight to the point. It only has a short term lifespan perfect for promotional purposes. Just ask Heath!

Keep an eye out for it on the road.

“Just thought I would let you know that I have had several comments about the sign writing, especially the Fiat 500. They look AWESOME!”
