One Way Vision - See through window signs

Signage that can be see through has heaps of advantages. For example, it maintains your privacy, cuts down glare and still allows you to see what’s going on outside. That’s why we are often asked to produce one way vision graphics which have tiny holes to allow it be a see through sign.

Avon Truffle Company asked us to make a one way vision sign for the back window of its Great Wall X240 SUV. You can see from the photo above that they still have complete rearward vision, whereas the top photo shows how it looks from the outside.

See through window graphics can be used for offices, cars, buses, or any application in which you need to see out, but still want your graphics to be seen.

Contact us for further information or to discuss any options for one way vision signage.

Life-size Cardboard Cutouts

You may know these guys as George and Gary from a hit reality TV cooking show. No, we didn’t have them in our office, but we did produce these cardboard cutouts for Zesti Woodfired Ovens.

If you need a character made into a cardboard cutout (well, technically a plastic cutout) at life size, then we can help.

From one off to several hundred, as long as the photo is crisp, we can trick your eyes into believing that your favourite personality is really sitting in your office.

Give us a call and speak to our friendly staff about your life-sized cardboard cutout needs.

Domed stickers and badges

Doming is a term used to describe a unique process whereby we apply a polyurethane resin to the surface of stickers to create a three dimensional domed or ‘bubble’ look.

Applications of domed stickers include:

• Computer badges
• Modems
• Alarm systems
• Car badges
• Name tags
• Asset management labels
• Beer tap labels
• Fridge stickers
• and much, much more.

Most shapes are possible as long as you have rounded corners, and sizes can vary, but to get the best effect, keep it simple and small. You can use chrome, silvers, golds, special effect materials and even individual letters.

All our domed stickers and badges are created in-house, meaning quick turnaround and low prices. They’re outdoor durable and can be applied to self-adhesive and badges.

Contact us to enquire about your options for doming your stickers.

Ventureshield Stone Chip Protection - Nissan GT-R

The R35 Nissan GT-R in the photo above is worth a lot of money. Keeping it in good condition is difficult when using it around the streets of Perth but when it also goes racing, the job is that much harder. On the race track the front end gets hammered by stones and rubber and the only way to prevent that is by using Ventureshield Stone Chip Protection Film. The full front and 600mm of the bonnet were covered as well as some areas around the wheel arches. The mirror backs and bonnet scoops were also covered.

The casual observer will be unlikely to notice the Ventureshield film as it is almost invisible when fitted correctly. If you are looking to protect your car or bike or truck from stone chips that devalue the vehicle, give us a call to arrange to have your vehicle protected. If you live too far away to bring the vehicle in, we also provide “kits” that you can fit yourself. These kits provide full instructions but unless you are confident, we do recommend that you let our professional team do the job. If you only require film in lengths, we also supply 600mm film which is 100microns thick and 300mm film that is 150microns thick.

We look forward to helping you protect your vehicle from Stone Chips with Ventureshield from Perth Graphics Centre.

Logos, text and solid panels are no problem for our team of experienced installers. Privacy, light, low key advertising and safety are possibilities when using 3M Frosted Crystal™, commonly known as window frosting or glass etching film.

Fascia Signage - Handcrafters House

Our client, Handcrafters House in Midland WA needed a sign on their fascia but the deadline was quite tight. Rather than us tell the story, we thought it better to post the unedited Testimonial supplied by the owner, Michelle:

“Recently I purchased a new premises for my patchwork & quilting business in Midland. The fascias on this building are huge and I wasn’t really sure where to start.

I found Perth Graphics Centre online through the Yellow Pages and emailed them to which they replied first thing the following morning. (Note to self - prompt and professional). A day or so later Tony and I were standing out the front of my shop measuring the signage area and discussing what would be needed.

As I dabble in a bit of graphic design I wanted to design my own signage, which was not a problem for Perth Graphics. After a lot of emails back and forth, due mainly to my indecision on colour, design, size and placement (after all I wanted it to be perfect) we came to the final product which was installed less than a week later! All of this happened in the weeks leading up to Christmas, one of the most busiest times of the year.

I was so impressed with Tony & Clare’s team at Perth Graphics that I offered to write to this testimonial. The quality of their work, their professionalism and their patience with my ever changing mind is second to none. And now my artwork sits proudly above my shop for all to see! Thank you Perth Graphics!”

Thankyou Michelle. We appreciate the business too! Just a side note… Whilst this sign was being installed, we had one gentleman approach us and ask where Handcrafters House had shifted to. He saw the sign and pulled in off the street to come and see what Handcrafters House had to offer! Proof positive that good signage really does work.”

Vehicle Wraps - Half is still good!

Half Wrap Rear View

Home Icecream Half Wrap

Our client was looking for great value and despite that full wraps are all the rage, sometimes a half wrap will provide just as much exposure but at a much better price. Why just wrap half a vehicle? Full wraps require removal of quite a bit of hardware including door handles, badges and more. Wrapping only half a vehicle without removal of all the components results in a faster cheaper job and yet the exposure is almost as good as a full wrap. Value for money, a half wrap is pretty hard to beat.

The same materials as are used for full wraps are also used in this application. We use Automotive Grade vinyls and laminates and the images are printed on a high quality solvent printer to ensure long life vibrant colour prints. The overlaminate ensures that the print is not directly exposed to the elements and can’t be “washed off”. Our expert fitters have all completed training courses in how to wrap vehicles and are now very experienced in this aspect of signage.

If you’re looking for maximum impact at minimum price, consider a half vehicle wrap. Call us today for an estimate.
