Anybody know any reasonable painters to paint a box truck? or would it be cheaper to just wrap it without repainting it?????

Its NOT cheaper to wrap it over painting it. Let me explain.. You will have to pay someone to remove it ($500-$1,000+) in 3+ years and start all over again. Your average out of pocket expense to wrap an entire box is around $3,000 depending on quality of material and whether it has a laminate to protect it. Something to consider, if your paint is in bad shape you need to sand out areas that are peeling so they don't cause massive bubbles under your wrap. I suggest painting and then wrapping it or using cut vinyl (lasts 5-8 years on vertical surfaces) to display business info if that is your intent for the truck. At least this way you don't have to start over so soon and will only pay once in 6 years. Option 1 - printed/solid wrap estimated cost over 6 years - prep surface // $0-$200, wrap // $2,500-$3,500, remove wrap in 3 years // $500-$1,000, paint or rewrap // $1,500-$3,500 Estimated expense over 6 years $4,500-$8,200 Option 2 - paint and cut vinyl cost estimated over 6 years - paint // $1,500-$2,500, vinyl lettering // $500-$1,000 Estimated expense over 6 years - $2,000-$3,500 I have a guy that has been doing paint and body for 30+ years in Longview that shoots paint for me under retail. I have been doing cut vinyls over 11 years. Let me know if you would like more info. www.synfxonline.com Portfolio www.instagram.com/synfxcreativeservices 903-375-5016
Does anyone in the Tyler area do custom vinyl names? I need a very small name "KAT" in like a curlz font maybe 2 inches tall? And I need it by Thursday... Can anyone help?i also have a few more I'd like but this one is the one I need the quickest.
