Can Slide-a-way paint existing curtains?
|
|
| No. Graphicsider is a fully integrated product using special vinyls and inks. The vinyl must first be printed and then fabricated into a curtain set. |

|
Can the Graphicsider be repaired?
|
|
| Most tears or punctures of the Graphicsider can be easily and quickly repaired without any noticeable deterioration of the visual image by our authorised on-site repairers. The Graphicsider picture is made up of millions of dots of ink and because each dot is so small, there is not 'flaking' of the paint around an abrasion. In this way, the Graphicsider is more durable than many hand-painted truck curtains. |

|
How long do Graphicsider curtains last?
|
|
| Most clients anticipate an advertising life of 3-5 years for each Graphicsider creative. Whilst the curtains themselves will last much longer, carriers should expect Graphicsiders to be replaced in this 3-5 year time span. |

|
Can Graphicsiders be made for all truck types?
|
|
| Graphicsider curtains can be made to fit any size of curtain-sided rigid body or semi-trailer, irrespective of the body builder. Slide-a-way measures each vehicle prior to curtain manufacture for precise curtain fit. This includes positioning of buckles to avoid cross members, lights and wheel arches. We also stock a vast range of roller types to match any existing track. |

What if the truck does not have side-curtains?
|
|
| For solid-sided pans, we produce Graphicsider . Clients receive the same high resolution graphics imagery printed on high grade, adhesive vinyl. Trucks are required to have flat, clean surfaces for optimum decal installation. |

|
Who approves the artwork?
|
|
| Artwork is generally supplied to Slide-a-away by the advertising agency used by the client. If requested, we can provide carriers with a copy of the artwork for them to approve prior to Graphicsider manufacture. |
