More Edge work and Reflective srtiping...Note to self Reflective stripes suck to put on...The customer actually refused to pay full price for these trucks. I guess it could have been worse.

Why did the customer refused to pay full price for these trucks?

They felt that some of the flaws in the reflective that we had to over lap didn't look right, I felt that we didn't do that bad a job considering these are three seperate stripes not pre-masked stripe kits. Trust me it was one of those things where it was easier just letting it slide.

If you think THAT sucks, Don't let them convince you to REMOVE it

as a note firemen can be some of the pickyest customers to work for. You must charge for the time it takes to make the job perfect. I have lost count of the number of fire apparatus i have striped in the last 5 years. The truck looks good from the pictures. parallel lines down the bodyline of any vehicle are tricky to get strait, with no bubbles, wrinkles, or blemishes in the reflective.

the bad thing is when you let it slide you are empowering them to do it again.
