T-shirt idea contest !! - 05-18-2007, 09:44 AM

Thought I should ask the 'creative' and collective minds of DC for some help. I have had many requests for a t-shirt from vendors, customers and peers recently and I thought I should oblige. I currently have embroidered shirts with the company logo that could work; however, for some time now I have wanted a screenprinted t-shirt with a catchy/double-meaning/provocative phrase on the back and thought this would be the time to put one together.

This is where DC comes in. I really can't think of one that I like. This is a poor example but will give you an idea of what I am looking for:

" Detailz, where Maineiacs go to get BUFFED "

Don't laugh too hard at me, I never said I was creative. Services that we offer that may help are: interior/exterior detailing ( autos ,boats, trucks, motorcycles...), wetsanding, compounding, shrinkwrapping boats, interior repairs and paint chip repairs. So anything related to our business could be used.

THE REWARD: the winning idea will receive a t-shirt with said slogan. The judge will be MY boss (the wife) and my staff.

Thanks in advance for all the help

On my business card I have.

"Restoring beauty one car at a time"

or the one I used to use with friends...

"Taking out more scratches then I put in"


I like beer. On occasion I will even drink a beer to celebrate a major event such as the fall of communism or the fact that our refrigerator is still working.

It took me weeks to think of a slogan....
Then thought of what I do compared to the carwash and came up with this...

''We begin where the car wash ends.''


Be unique, Be distint, see Detailz.....
Think outside the box ...Joe
