Rendering: Aircraft blueprint printed on corrugated metal hangar wall

Garages, basements and game rooms are where homeowners stop playing it safe. They want the bold version, and they show it off to everyone who comes over.

Garages

  • Racing stripes and checkered flag graphics
  • Classic car and motorcycle scenes
  • Vintage gas station and road trip themes
  • Tool wall outlines that keep every tool in its place
  • Printed floors over sealed concrete, with the Floor Series

Game rooms and basements

  • Team rooms in school or club colors
  • Pub, sports bar and lounge themes
  • Arcade and retro game graphics
  • Home gym motivation walls

Home theaters

  • Marquee entrances and movie poster walls
  • Starfield or curtain scenes
  • Graphics on acoustic panels, printed in the shop

What to plan for

  • Brand logos from car makers and pro teams are trademarks. Use original designs, or get permission.
  • Garage floors need a sealed or coated surface. Check it before you quote.
  • Basements can run cool and damp. Print when the space is in a normal temperature range.

How to pitch it

The best prospects have a wall people see every day, a reason to change now, like an opening, a rebrand or a renovation, someone you can reach who decides, and a budget for decor already. Start with garage door and epoxy floor installers, home theater installers, remodelers and custom home builders.

The walk-in takes about 20 seconds:

“Hi, I’m [name] with [your business]. We print full-color murals and graphics straight onto walls, right here in [city]. Can I show you what that wall would look like with your design on it?”

Take a photo of the wall, mock the design up on it, and follow up with an email in two days and a call in a week. Most jobs aren’t lost to price. They’re lost to a follow-up that never happened.

Questions people ask

Can you print on a garage floor?

Yes, with the Floor Series on sealed or coated concrete. The surface decides the prep.

Will a garage print hold up?

Indoors, yes. For heavy traffic or chemicals, ask the team whether a clear coat makes sense.
