Custom iPhone Skin for A&W Lawn Kare

Monday, May 10th, 2010

dsc_9993Lawn care companies are like any other company looking to advertise their goods or services.  A few months ago A&W Lawn Kare needed custom full color lawn care business cards, and vinyl graphics to advertise with their lawn care trucks.  A&W Lawn Kare wanted to carry their branding over to their company iPhones.  509 Media designed and printed custom iPhone skins with the lawn care theme from their business card layout.

The A&W Lawn Kare iPhone skins were printed on 3M CV3 and laminated to protect the ink.  The skin can be removed from the iPhone without leaving adhesive back.

iPhone Skins for Droopy and Kim Sears of Rock Out Racing

Thursday, January 7th, 2010

pinkrockout_iphoneIf you have been anywhere around rock racing over the past few years the names Droopy (Nathaniel) and Kim Sears will ring a bell.  Droopy and Kim are a husband and wife team competing in professional rock racing. Their team name is Rock Out Racing.  It is very cool to see female drivers getting it on the course.  Be sure to look out for the Droopy and Kim Sears in featured articles on the net and printed publications.

I should mention the iPhone skin as the skin is the reason for making this post.  Droopy sent a message to me a few days ago asking for some iPhone skins to help promote their race team brand.  He wanted to a graphic design for his wife with pink elements added.  Rather than changing the color of the logo to pink I dropped in a pink pattern in the back ground and added a few effects which resulted in what you see.  If you would like to discuss branding opportunities with 509 Media be sure to contact us.  We can build custom graphic designs to suit the need of your race team or company.

For more information on Rock Out Racing and rock racing be sure to visit their website.  You will find pictures from events such as King Of The Hammers, XRRA, and more.  Tell them 509 Media sent you.

RC Rock Crawler Wrap Losi MRC

Monday, November 16th, 2009

dsc_6679I have been involved in the sport and business of rock crawling for many years.  I built an internationally known business building real rock crawlers and parts for them.  Along the way I found an interest in radio control rock crawlers.  RC rock crawling over the years has developed from people who have the real ones to those who only do rc.  I never thought I would meet someone who knew nothing of the full size industry but I did.

I have owned many different rc rock crawlers.  I have even built a few custom tube chassis my rc rock crawlers.  While messing around with the cars I began printing wraps for them.  Wraps are graphics printed on 3M vinyl just like we use to wrap a real car.  I bought a Losi MRC 1/18 scale rock crawler for my son.  I left the hobby store and went straight to my shop to design and print a custom wrap for him.  At the time I was still involved with Blue Torch Fab so the wrap has BTF all over it.

The graphic kit pictured can be purchased from here on 509 Media or through TCS Crawlers. It is a quick easy way to change out the boring graphics on the stock Losi MRC.  Installing the wrap is very easy.  First remove the factory stickers.  Clean the lexan body with a little alcohol.  Make sure it is dry.  Then place the wrap on each panel and make sure to push any air bubbles out.  You should not have an issue with bubbles because of the vinyl used.  It is the same 3M Controltac vinyl we use to wrap vehicle and trailers. btf_losimrcwrap

Losi is a great company.  I was introduced to Bill Jeric, the president of Horizon Hobbies / Losi in 2008 at the Off-Road Expo in Pomona, CA.  After the show Bill and I got on the phone and exchanged ideas through email.  When the 2.2 Losi Rock Crawler was introduced a few months back we help with a promotional giveaway on Pirate4x4.

if you have an RC body and think there is a need in the rc industry for a wrap kit please contact me.  In the message please include what the body if used for and the model of the body.  We can also build graphic kits for RC planes, boats, and more.

Tricon Aquatics iPhone Wrap

Tricon Construction in Rancho Cordova, California contacted me about putting together a wrap for their company iPhones.  They wanted the wrap to serve a few different purposes.  One to help promote their brand, protect the phone, and last they wanted a “call if found” number added to the skin for the honest people who may find their phone.  These skins or wraps if you will are easy to install.  They are printed on high quality vinyl that will not leave glue behind when removed.

If you are interested in having a custom iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPod Classis be sure to use the contact us form here on our site.  The pricing is a lot less than you may think.
