Everything was planned for an outside installation which would have give a better impact of the fluorescent colors, but the 50 MPH wind blowing the snow on the windows made it impossible. Being 150 miles away from the shop, we finaly installed it inside.
The car part is 16' high by 36' wide and took an entire day to achieve.
"Tirage" which means "draw" is 72' long.
Another work that we are very proud of!

The "Tirage" part took 5 hours to paint. The car took almost 9! It was a 3 hours installation(3 men), but the drive took 5!
It is all painted on Tyvek paper then applied with double faced tapes on the windows. Usually we install outside, they look better, but sometimes the weather simply does not cooperate!
Window splashes is 100% of what we do!

Looks great Pierre! It seems that you do these splash's really Fast, Do you use the projector for the lettering as well as the car? Also when applying them outside, what do you use to apply it to the window?
