Last week a friend of mine with the Dothan Police Department referred Cottonwood Rescue to me to letter their new ambulance. The ambulance was purchased used from the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. Upon receiving the ambulance it still had a 6 inch wide orange reflective vinyl stripe which did not match the other ambulances in the Cottonwood Rescue fleet. The state requires all ambulances within a company to have the same fleet graphic colors. At least that is what Cottonwood Rescue explained to me.
The first task at hand was to replace the orange reflective stripe with blue reflective vinyl. The blue reflective vinyl was cut on our plotter to 6.120″ wide from a 24 inch wide roll of 6.9 mil, 7 year outdoor durable reflective vinyl. Once the blue stripe was in place we could place the rest of the vinyl graphics on the ambulance. We cut the “star of life” logo and placed it on each side with Cottonwood Rescue above. They requested their slogan “Just a Heartbeat Away” with a heart rhythm line to be placed on each side of the ambulance below the star of life graphic. We also cut Cottonwood Rescue from the blue reflective vinyl and placed it on the drivers and passenger doors to match the other ambulances in their fleet. From there we had a few other small elements to cut and place on the ambulance. They requested “Cottonwood” to be places on the rear doors in blue. The last of the blue added to the ambulance included “911″ being placed on the rear and each side toward the rear of the ambulance.
After all of the blue reflective vinyl was completed we then cut the truck number and a 5.5″ tall “Ambualnce” from orange 6.9 mil, 7 year outdoor durable reflective vinyl. The truck numbers were placed on the front fenders on top of the blue stripe and one on the rear of the ambulance. The two “Ambulance” words were placed on top of the blue stripe on the sides of the ambulance.
