Preparing a excavator or loader for lettering in Montgomery
The bond starts with the panel, not the squeegee. Before a Montgomery excavator or loader is lettered, the application areas need to be sound, dry and free of wax, silicone, road film and failing paint; vinyl cannot correct a weak surface underneath it.
Counterweight, cab and boom are inspected around compound curves, grease points and high-contact edges. Those are the places where contamination collects and where a shortcut in cleaning shows first as a lifted edge.
A normal wash is useful but not sufficient. Waxed wash products can leave a residue, so final preparation uses products intended for graphic application and fresh towels rather than whatever is already in the vehicle-cleaning cabinet.
Peeling clear coat, fresh bodywork and rust need a decision before the Montgomery appointment. We can work around unsuitable areas, but covering them hides the warning without improving adhesion.
Montgomery is served from Lombardo Lettering’s Chester base as part of Somerset County, with this page focused specifically on surface preparation for a excavator or loader; the Somerset County service page explains the wider coverage area.

Placing identification on Montgomery equipment
Equipment lettering supports the Montgomery surface preparation goal only when it stays away from grease points, steps, counterweight contact and service access. The largest available curve is not automatically the longest-lasting location.
Unit numbers and ownership information should remain visible when the machine is parked in its normal orientation. Photographs taken with booms, buckets and doors in their working positions prevent the proof from using a panel that is routinely hidden.
Surface preparation: the Montgomery approval checklist
Use this surface preparation checklist before approving the excavator or loader for production in Montgomery; it keeps the review on decisions that affect this application rather than on generic sign-shop language.
- Wash heavy dirt from the vehicle before the Montgomery appointment.
- Tell us about recent paint or body repair.
- Remove tools that block the application panels.
- Provide a dry work position if rain is expected.

Montgomery surface preparation questions
Should a excavator or loader be waxed before lettering in Montgomery?
No. A clean vehicle helps, but wax and silicone must be removed from the application area before film is fitted.
Can vinyl be applied over damaged paint?
Sometimes, but the film can only hold as well as the coating beneath it. Unstable paint should be repaired first.
