If I want to be sure that a banner won't get scratched up too quickly, I apply a coat of ClearStar original with a 6" foam roller.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/4781806/ns/technology_and_science-security/ Yeah, it's a scam.

I got a phone call for something like that the other day. I felt like the salesperson was being sketchy, trying to mislead me into thinking she was from our local high school, when in fact she was with the company that sells the promo items. Especially the way she was acting like this was...

The retracting mechanism will jam up completely - at the top or somewhere in the middle. I'm making sure there is plenty of clearance on either side and it's taped on straight. I reinforce the hold on the bottom with power tape that lays completely flat. The material itself isn't too thick...

I'm working at 100%. Every single retractable banner stand I've sold in the past year has failed on my customers, usually on their first use, and left me looking like an idiot. I've done my research, tested multiple brands, assembled everything as carefully as possible while following the...

yup, urban myth

If I know a banner is going to get abused, I roll on a single coat of Clearstar original semi-gloss.

True, but does Tititata have the option to go to the boss and tell him that he just wasted a huge pile of money and that it's impossible to work in the space that's been allotted? Can Tititata show the boss this thread and expect it to convince him to let Tititata out of this assignment? Or...

Hi, Yeah, space is going to be an issue, but to address your specific questions; 1) I think 12 feet is good enough. The only time I've heard sign guys complain about ceiling height is when they need to wrap vehicles. 2) Yes to AC and fans, your machinery is going to put out its own heat and...

I love it how the English just keeps getting worse and worse as the email progresses.

All my art and customer files are on an external USB drive so I can maintain full productivity whether I'm at my shop, at home or on the road. (Whether you'd consider that a convenience or a ball and chain is up to you.) I also have three backups that also contain disk images of my main...

I live and work in Manchester. Everyone at least knows someone who knows someone who works there, so it's definitely casting a shadow over the town.

If you want to go to their big conference in Atlantic City in December, the cost of admission is much less for members, so you can save money by joining. I went last year and went to seminar after seminar and worked really hard to learn and see and collect as much information as possible, so...

Suppliers don't carry the inventory these used to. You can't count on having instant access to even the most basic supplies. I was shut down for a few days waiting for Magenta last year, so now I'm never without at least one full backup cartridge. I hate having the extra $500 sitting on my...
