  2. 3'x15'x1.5" HDU Sign Install Question

    Thank you for the response! Okay I started rethinking the install to make it as easy as possible, and came the conclusion that maybe aluminum french cleats would work better.

  3. 3'x15'x1.5" HDU Sign Install Question

    Hey everyone I could use some insight on installing a 3'x15'x1.5" HDU Sign to a stucco wall. First should I use a backer on the sign such as .040 aluminum? Second would you glue studs in the back of sign or use anchors such as tapcons to mount it to the wall? The sign will be installed...

  10. Orajet 3105HT issues

    I honestly don’t know. But that thought crossed my mind I bought it from Fellers in 54”x10yrd rolls and I don’t think they move a lot of them at my local warehouse. I also noticed that the vinyl had shrunk quite a bit around the edges of the backing paper when I pulled them out of the box.
