Reveal of the Automechanika Birmingham 2025 graffiti wall
Located at Raze Murals workshop in Derby, Leigh Irvine of Raze Murals, said: “It was an honour to be asked to produce this installation for Automechanika Birmingham. The project took around 20 hours and just shy of 100 cans of spray paint! It’s been a few late (and frosty) nights but I’m so happy with the final piece. The most difficult part of the installation was adhering to the brand guidelines for each logo, whilst keeping the style street art and make it pop.”
Some of the industry’s most well-known figures were in attendance for the Automechanika Birmingham graffiti wall reveal including Specky Painter of Walcom, 3M, Car-o-Liner, ProXL and FLP Group - giving event attendees a glimpse of the talent they can expect to see, meet and hear from at the 2025 show.
Commenting on the installation, Lee Roan Regional Sales & Marketing Manager at 3M, said: “It’s great to see lots of key brands coming together to support this creative activation. We at 3M are delighted to be part of the project and feel that it will really appeal to the younger generation – and as an industry with a skills shortage in market this installation is a great way of attracting younger talent.”
