Hello, I am looking for advice regarding filling holes from removed pin mounted letters. I was hoping to conceal the holes as much as possible by covering them with a colour matched silver cast vinyl to match the ACM cladding. My only concern is what type of hole filler would be best for...

Well since this was posted I have been doing cuts for 3 other shops which helps fill in the gaps. So far I have been charging a 75 dollar minimum based on an hour. I’ve just been going by “feel” so far and it’s been working out pretty well. Most jobs are 150-250 for signage related stuff. I...

I am applying the letters directly to the lexan in this case.

Hello sign making friends. I am fabricating a “push through” style sign here and wanted some final advice prior to applying the logo and letters. Acrylic to polycarb. Can I be confident attaching these with High Bond tape only or should I take the extra step and add a few blobs of Lexel...

Just ordered some to try out. Thanks!

I have a project where I am facing acrylic letters with brushed gold ACM. Wondering if I can attempt to save a step. Has anyone done this before and if so, what kind of adhesive might work well for this. Thought it was worth trying. Obviously want to avoid seeing the adhesive along the edges...

It would be a largish sign at around 8x4 feet.

Dude... That's not a bad idea! Love it

Hey everyone, just wondering if anyone had any really cool ideas for storage of finished graphics. Example would be masked graphics or produced vehicle graphics. Something that uses a small footprint. Would LOVE to see some photos of your storage techniques! My idea was to make wide shelves...
