When it comes to best sled wrap design tips and designing a sled wrap, there’s a lot of things to take into consideration. They aren’t cheap, so you better make sure you get it right. You might feel a little overwhelmed right now. That’s normal.
The good news?
We’ve made a difficult, time consuming process EXTREMELY easy for you.
Follow the hacks below, and you’ll be sure to have the most fun you’ve ever had designing up a snowmobile wrap!
Know Your Plastics
It’s crucial that you keep the color of your snowmobile in mind when designing up a sled wrap. The base colors of your tunnel, tank, side panels, and hood will be slightly visible in-between your decal cut lines. This is normal.
What is not normal is when you design a wrap that COMPLETELY clashes with your snowmobile stock colors.
If you have some red on your side panels, it doesn’t take much, simply just a splash of red within your design and that will blend everything nicely.
You can also pull an image up of your snowmobile in cases where you don’t have it – ex: with a snowcheck. Look closely at the image of your snowmobile and design your wrap using splashes of the existing colors.
In the video below, we walk you through how to match up wrap colors with your stock colors. Watch it!
Figure out your design style
Use the filters on our sled wrap catalog pages to dial in the design types that you prefer. This can save you a bunch of time. We have 100+ designs to choose from. Take advantage of those filters! 🙂
Customize with colors that flow well together
You might be asking yourself, well what colors go good together? Super valid question and we’ve made it super duper easy for you to stack colors together that look awesome.
We recommend using the Canva Color Wheel too.
It’s really simple. Let’s say you like the color blue and want that to be a main color in your wrap design. With the color wheel tool, select blue. The tool then gives you options for complimentary colors.
Takes all the guess work out of it!
Add Logos In All The Right Places
Below you’ll see a video we created to help you with proper logo placement. It’s worth a watch if you find yourself needing a little extra help.
In a nutshell:
- Pay attention to angles and decal cut lines
- Look up stock manufacturer sleds and see where they place stock logos. You can mimic that using our wrap customizer.
- It’s helpful to make all wrap colors white so you can see all the decal cut lines, and then place your logos. Once finished, adjust the wrap colors to what you want.
- If you see sled wraps online that you like, pay attention to how they place their logos and use it as a blueprint for yours. 🙂
Don’t Stress.
Don’t stress if you are unsure if everything is exactly lined up. Especially if you are designing your wrap on a phone or tablet.
Once you place your order, we work your file and get it ready to print.
We then send you a mockup to approve before we print and ship. If we need to adjust some things, no big deal. We want you to be 100% stoked before we print and ship.
And yes, we mirror your graphics/logos to the other side of the machine. 🙂
