The tow business is a highly competitive industry. If you follow these steps and take the time to get the method down, you should be able to add custom signage to own truck.A look at the tow truck before the graphics! It’s wise to practice and make as few mistakes as possible. You can use acetone to remove mistakes, but it might also strip off your truck’s patina. If this is your first time doing something like this, you should practice quite a bit before applying paint to your actual truck. We suggest using our steps as a basic framework and building off of them to suit your own truck. We hit him up about doing the GMC, and he decided that it was right up his alley and got right to work.Īlthough we had help from an artist, our goal was to demonstrate how just about anyone can handle this mod. Since we’d done some work with Chad Carothers of Chadcan’tcolor, we knew he was a talented artist who also works on trucks. To get the artwork done for this story, we found an artist who could not only design the logo but also apply it properly. Since our truck is the same thing minus the new paint job, we came up with “Rust-O-Speed Shop” for the name of our fictitious shop.
Stock-looking trucks with a few upgrades are regarded as restomod trucks. Because this ’62 GMC has a 383-ci Stoker small-block engine, it’s pretty fast even though it might not look like it. Though we don’t have an actual shop ourselves, a name was a must. Seeing several trucks with shop logos inspired us and got us thinking about what we could do.
Since we already had a patina-style truck, we wanted to take it to the next level. If you can’t come up with something on your own, you will more than likely find a suitable design on the web. It also helps to research designs that will fit the part before you get started creating art specifically for your truck. Certain brushes and paints can be combined to create the right piece, but there are a few insider tricks that can make your art look legit. The problem is that if you lay down paint using a traditional technique, it might look too new for the truck’s style, and you’ll need to break the rules to make it look right. The solution is to make your own signage, but this can get tricky.
