  1. ADA and Braille Liability

    ADA and Braille Signs. Can the sign maker be liable for not having the signs be legally correct? I have a long time customer that is remodeling. This is the first time we are doing ADA signs for them, and they keep saying they don't care if the sign is legally correct or not. Yes, they know they...
  2. How to match up a design across sign boards?

    I have a sign that will be 4' H x 16' W. Because of the size I'll be using two 4' x 8' ACM panels, and applying vinyl over the top. Part of the design will be split in two where the sign butts up. What application technique do you guys use to make sure the design will match up once the boards...
  3. Trailers Made Of Metal Panels

    I'm wrapping a food truck that is made of 4 metal panels that overlap. There are no bolts or rivets on the outside. Would you bridge over where the metal overlaps, or should I slice down that line? Also, the first and the last panels are 25" while the center two are 48". Would you leave any over...
  4. Need Help Installing a double sided traffic sign post

    I have a customer looking to have 5 double sided traffic posts installed in their parking lot. We print the signs ourselves, reflective vinyl on aluminum, but I've never installed the post portion one. I was looking at Grimco and saw their square posts as the base, but I didn't see any mounting...

  6. Opinion Need A New Heat Gun

    My heat gun finally kicked the bucket, so I'm looking for a new one. What do you guys recommend or use? My previous was a corded Makita. Has anyone tried the cordless heat guns?
  7. What To Have In A New Work Space?

    Hi guys. My company is in the process of working on the plans for building an addition on our building specifically for vehicle wraps. We are an established sign shop, but never had a garage to do vehicle wraps. As for my question, what are some necessary, or helpful things to have in a wrap...
  8. Streaks in Frosted Window Film

    Is there any way to speed up getting these streaks out? I contacted my Mactac sales rep and they said to try a felt squeegee. I tried another test install today, with that felt squeegee, and it was worse. It's like every single squeegee stroke leaves a mark, no matter how hard or soft I press...
  9. Streaks in Frosted Window Film

    Not sure if this is the correct area to post this, but I just installed my first frosted window film with cut graphics. This was done in our shop for practice. After we took the masking off we noticed there is white streaks going across parts of the film. It is extra noticeable when light is...
