SLOW AND STEADY

After 10 years of managing a commercial printing company,
Brandon Barnett went in a new direction, opening Ink Wrap
Shop (inkwrapshop.com) in Tulsa, Oklahoma, with a focus on
high-impact designs and projects.
"We've made a specialty for ourselves in creative ways to
market for our customers," Barnett explains. And, the shop
has no shortage of creative uses for vinyl. Barnett has
wrapped everything from ceilings and vehicles to trash cans
and port-a-potties - "anywhere we can place a graphic to gain
attention for our customer." This willingness to think outside
the box is what brought returning customer Safari Joe's H20
Water Park back with a one-of-a-kind request: transform a PT
Cruiser into a "larger-than-life" red-eared slider turtle. "They
didn't know how it was possible, but they figured we could
make it come to life," says Barnett.
The two-man shop got to work converting a 3D concept
into a printable 2D design, wrapping the entire front end of the
car to create a template of the intricate artwork. Barnett
traced out where the hood and fenders met, as well as where
the turtle's eyes, nose, mouth, and stripes needed to land. The
team pored over images of real-life turtles from different
perspectives to shape their own final design, printed with the
shop's HP Latex 335 onto 3M Controltac 180mC, finishing
with Scotchcal 8518. Barnett installed the wrap over the
course of a week, painstakingly aligning each element of the
design and re-templating as necessary.
