#1 - High Quality
#2 - Durability of Product
#3 - Improved Performance Gains
Our Target Audience:
- Performance Enthusiasts (from weekend racers to pro race teams)
- People that are passionate about cars (customers are typically educated males aged 30 - 70)
- Performance Automotive Shops (resellers of our services)
Color Preferences
Blue/Grey/Silver/Chrome-Like (colors must convey a cool/calm feel sophisticated feel) - open to other color variations as long as they convey this feel
Our Ideas and Additional Information:
We take automotive parts (i.e. headers, pistons, intake manifolds, valve covers, etc) that typically get very hot and add a protective ceramic coating to reduce the heat to those areas - think of it as "heat management"
We are open to seeing EnduraCool as one word or two words.
Our website will be build around the logo. Logo will also be used on t-shirts and decals and some mailings to businesses.

Diamond Contest
We're sorry, but this contest is presently open to a limited pool of designers.
Hello! Here are some hints for getting the most out of your contest:
~~ Rank designs daily -- this will encourage more participation. ~~ Ranking designs daily will also keep your contest from getting cluttered. ~~ The more feedback you provide, the better results you are going to see. ~~ Designers are not offended by "Not Interested" ~~ Over-use of "Not Interested" discourages participation. ~~ Ranking is a non-monitary means of showing apprecaition for designers hard work. ~~ Designers earn points for ranked designs. We like to earn points.
1st place - 50 points 2nd place - 20 points 3rd place - 10 points 4-6th place - 5 points 7-10 place - 3 points 10th on - 1 point
We like the way #6 and #7 look, but we're not sure if they work for our company. The font may be too futuristic looking. We think we'd like to see something with a more American feel rather than a "Fast and Furious" feel (if that makes sense).
Definitely like the color play of #4 and #5, but concerned about using too much red because red speaks heat and we are trying to convey heat management (i.e. headers run cooler with a ceramic coating).
Also, we are not very excited about using a logo with a black background. We plan on designing the website based on the logo and do not want to use black background pages. Every customer will also receive a decal (very big in the automotive industry), so the logo needs to work from a decal standpoint, too.
artiobg - we'd like to see #6 and #7 with a white background beyond the encircled lettering.
joombadoo - the logo is a little bit plain for what we are looking for.
Alexis - the logo felt too big
Thanks to all 3 of you for being the first to put something out there for us to critique!
To reiterate, we'd like to see some new designs with a more American feel rather than a "Fast and Furious" feel (if that makes sense), to see if that style would be a better option for us.
We'd like to see some options with "Performance Coatings" added as a tagline to the designs. The tagline should not overpower the "EnduraCool" portion. We are also still open to all new innovative designs. Thank you for the continued submissions.
