Adding graphics to a car: Airbrush or Wrap? |
|
Something I've wanted to do for a long time - have a "special effects" paint job and my kennel logo added onto my van. Anyone have any experience with this? A number of questions:
Is it better to consult an airbrush artist, or have a vehicle wrap made?
Pros and cons of each technique?
Comparative pricing?
Which technique results in a sharper, more eye-catching image?
Which technique is more resistant to the weathering of time and the elements?
Sources as to where to find an excellent airbrush artist or wrap designer?
At this point I don't care so much about the effect on the resale value, so reversibility isn't that big of an issue, though I understand the wrap is removable without too much trouble. All other things being equal, this might be a minor tipping point.
Any other input you can think of is welcome!

1. Strap a dog to each side with duct tape |
|
It'll get attention, and makes noise even when you're not moving

2. That doesn't give me... |

...the stars and galaxies effect that I want painted on the rest of the van, though! ;)

3. Around here, most commercial graphics are vinyl, I think. |
|
I think it's cheaper and can be recreated from a disc if need be.
