Promoting the Spot

InstantSpot

Dave and I ordered some vinyl window stickers to put on our vehicles...24" wide "Get Spotted!" and "www.InstantSpot.com". The guy who sold them to us warned us not to try applying them when it is cold outside. Being the know-it-all guy that I am, I figured he was just full of it, and that I was all of the sudden an expert at vinyl sticker application.

Well lets just say, I am NOT worth a crap when it comes to stickers! It took me almost an hour to get those stickers on, sorta centered, almost straight, and not-too-bubbly.

I remember seeing guys putting vinyl graphics on cars, and they put some water down on the surface allowing them to position it just right, then squigee (sp?) the excess water away along with the bubbles. Well, either that is just some really convincing special effects, or they weren't trying to do it in a garage that is 35 degrees.

Once I get a chance I will post some pics of the finished product. I think it turned out decent enough.

EDIT:  here are the pics

hahaha I have tried the soap and water trick in the winter and agree that it isn't the best idea in the world unless you have a heat gun. I had a friend over here do it and he used my heat gun afterwards to remove the soapy water. Just have to hold it pretty far away and be patient.

Post some pictures of the stickers when you get a chance... This should attract some new people.. Next time I get a $50-100 adwords credit when getting a client hosting I will forward it to you guys.

I'm sure if you really did want to be a rolling advertisement for us, we would find a little budget room for that! :)
