Ryan Upchurch, a professional scooter stunt rider and upcoming photographer asked me to be a partner of his in creating some advertising for him.
I did 1,000 business cards, 3 dozen t-shirts and 300 stickers for him.
The t-shirts were printed on black Gildan t-shirts with a two color print on the front only. Screen printing shirts will last years and is a create way to create and wear your own brand.
The business cards were printed on both sides on thick, glossy card stock for a professional look and feel. One thousand of the cards were printed up for Ryan.
The 300 stickers were cut out of die-cut vinyl since these were going on bike/scooter frames, ramps, skateboards, helmets and other areas related to stunt riding. Die-cut vinyl means only the design and lettering is applied, no background or anything like printed stickers.

Here is something that has become very popular over the years for my customers.
Auto Ads are really “billboards” advertising a business or equipment manufacturer. Often these products are placed on the back of automobiles and are seen by thousands of other motorists everyday. In short, Auto Ads are cost effective advertising.
Available to be printed on reflective, chrome, brushed aluminum and clear vinyl!

This was a fun project JM Graphics finished up this week. This is a 2010 Nissan 370z supercharged.
Jeremy, The owner of the 370z called Monday wanting a appointment to shoot some ideas around for some gloss black vinyl stripes. The meeting consisted of gathering measurements and ideas together to start working on a stripe design. Each panel of the car was measured for the best fitment during the install.
The vinyl used for this job was Premium Avery brand vinyl with air egress channels. What’s air agress channels? They are small channels on the adhesive side of the vinyl that allow air to pass through for a virtually bubble free installation. Once applied firmly, the air channels flatten out becoming invisible. This is on mostly white and black vinyl and ideal for large vehicle graphics.
The stripes are 7.5″ wide each with a 4″ gap in the middle.
This job took just 3 business days to complete from meeting with the customer, producing the graphics and installing the stripes. Jeremy had said a competitor had stalled on this project for 6 months and it took JM Graphics only 3 days to complete the entire project which is the way business should be. JM Graphics prioritizes each customer no matter what size the job may be. Without you the customer, we would not be here.
If you would like to get a custom vehicle graphics such as stripes or side graphics on your vehicle please Contact John!

Now here is a project that was truly fun. Chuck who has been a good customer of JM Graphics for years now restored a 1989 YJ Jeep Wrangler. He wanted the stickers to look factory with a slight twist to them. That’s just what i did.
All of the stickers are black gloss with silver vinyl letters. The torch red YJ Jeep really brought the custom stickers out.
The stickers on the lower portion of the Jeep only came single color from the factory. Chuck had me do them to match the rest of the stickers to bring together all of the graphics. Consistency in vehicle graphics or advertising is very important for a positive impact.
I haven’t seen online Jeep overlays two tone let alone for the YJ style Jeeps that actually fit. These are a one off custom sticker that was made from scratch to fit this model Jeep. The up close photos show you how they fit into the embossed area.
You can purchase any of the stickers seen above in a variety of single colors as well as 2 tone colors for the YJ Jeeps ranging from 1986-1995 starting at just $30. Not local to Maryland? We ship!

If you haven’t noticed, JM Graphics has many ways to make your business stand out. Traditional vehicle advertising on doors is very popular but another option for those not wanting to apply vinyl to their paint is printed see thru window vinyl. Windows are often overlooked at being used for vehicle advertising.
See thru window vinyl is applied on the outside and is full color printed and laminated with a gloss over-laminate to protect it against dirt staining the prints and sun fading. Laminate on see thru vinyl is very important. Why? Well when it rains, lamination makes the rain run over it as if it wasn’t there. If you didn’t laminate it and it rained then the tiny holes would fill with water which creates a obstruction of view. The gloss laminate lets you clean the vinyl with ease. If you didn’t use laminate, The tiny holes in the vinyl would build up with dirt and pollen and scrubbing to get the dirt out may ruin the print.
See thru window advertising can be applied to vehicle windows as well as store fronts.
In the photos above you can see the finished product installed on the JM Graphics HHR SS and a view from the inside after the installation.
Please contact John today for a quote on getting your windows covered in see thru vinyl!

Terri from IV7 contacted us wanting to advertise her germ defense product on her vehicle windows. We arranged a personal meeting with Terri to put together ideas. Once the design was completed by us we then installed the advertising on her windows.
You can see what the vehicle looked like before and then after we put advertising on it. This is a mobile billboard and is the cheapest, most effective type of advertising you can do.
Newspapers and yellow pages are simply a waste of your advertising budget since they are old technology. Everyone is going online to search for services and what can be better than a billboard on wheels displaying your services and contact information?
IV7 is a antibacterial, antiviral, anti-fungal disinfectant that is odor free, kid safe and has a 24 hour protection on the area it’s sprayed on.
Check out Terri’s germ defense product at http://iv7productsales.com and tell her that JM Graphics sent you. She is a great person and will be more than happy to help you.
We can design, produce, install and or ship your window & vehicle advertising.
Contact John to put to work that bare space on your vehicle or window today!
Please show your support and leave a blog post comment below.
