The "Seaglass-mobile" gets wrapped

Have you seen the newly wrapped "Seaglass-mobile" around Clifton Park these days? What began as a silver Rav 4, in one day transformed into a transparent water scene with the Seaglass Logowear logo & the information of what we provide...embroidery, screen printing, banners, vinyl lettering, trophies, awards, engraving...and now vehicle wraps! 

To begin, the car was cleaned & prepped with alcohol, extraneous pieces removed (side mirrors, back tire etc) and now ready for application. The printed vinyl sheets went on in sections, 2 pieces for the each side, 2 for the back door, 1 for the hood & 1 for the front grill. The windows were completed last with perforated window treatment (a view-thru material so you can still see out). With many choices for materials on the main body of the car, we used a cast material with laminate that conforms to complex curves (...basically my entire vehicle) and has superior durability. With many helpers, this vehicle transformed over the day with precision layout, squeegeeing and trimming.

Our vehicle now advertises for us, without us going above & beyond our normal daily activities. Research into vehicle wrap effectiveness has shown that an average vehicle driving around town will garner 30,000-70,000 impressions every day. That is 1.6 million people seeing your vehicle every year. Have you seen the "Seaglass-mobile"?

February Facebook Promotion

January has ended, yet the snow has continued. So, as I sit here on my snow day, during the 4th (or whatever number we are on now) major snow storm of 2011, I ponder the promotions that can benefit our Facebook fans. To encourage participation and sharing on Facebook, I have decided to offer a discount based on the number of fans we have. Here is how it works....

During the month of February, invite your friends to Seaglass Logowear's Page. The number of fans as of March 1st will determine the discount. At the time of this post, we have 429 fans, which would equal a 4.29% discount. However, if we hit 830 fans, the discount for March will be 8.30% and for 1000 fans, a 10% discount (and so on; you get the picture!). As of March 1st, all fans on that date, will be allowed to participate in the discount for the entire month of March.

The bottom line, every fan gets a discount during the month of March. The size of the discount depends on you!

Who visits a "t-shirt place"


I have had the pleasure of showing numerous visitors Seaglass Logowear, but have never enjoyed a group quite like the one I had last week. A group of young Girl Scouts setup a time to tour Seaglass Logowear, see the the equipment and create their own masterpieces. In advance, the girls had come up with a logo and I was able to prep it before they arrived. 

Once they settled in here, I brought up their design on the big screen and we played around with the colors and the logo itself. The girls saw how the decals were printed, and were able to take them home to show their families.




Once the decals were done, the t-shirts came out! We used single color, cut vinyl to print t-shirts for the girls. A picture of Charlie, my famous puppy, was placed into a star, printed and pressed onto t-shirts as well. Some of the girls have Charlie on their shirts so they will always remember the cool dog at Seaglass Logowear.

Thank you Girl Scout Troop 2278 for visiting our shop, and for the beautiful frame with all of the pictures for our wall. Visit us anytime!
