I'm making a couple of styrene signs that will be mounted flush on either side of a trailer. The size will be 28 X 24" - horizontal format - and I'm getting ready to order .03 styrene. Will that thickness be appropriate for this project? The trailer is used for parades, etc. and the signs will...
Sorry, I should have been more clear. The customer said he's seen motorcycle decals made from vinyl that is thicker than standard so it's harder to cause damage to. I think from some of the answers I've received on another forum that this is accomplished with a clear laminate, and someone told...
Can someone please tell me what this is called or who carries it? I'm supposed to do some dirt bike stickers and the customer asked about it. (I'm doing cut vinyl, not printed.) Thanks!
Hi, No I'm not licensed to work with electrical signs, but I didn't do anything in this case except make a new face to replace the existing one and installed it into the existing housing...Should I need a license to do this?
I installed a backlight sign a couple of months ago into an existing frame, replacing the old sign. The customer just asked me if metal gutters were available to keep water from running down the face of the sign and discoloring it (their old one was discolored from many years of this and the new...
Thanks for the replies and advice. I think if you read my original post it should be obvious that I don't intend to attempt an installation that I don't know how to do properly. That's why I posted this question (in the newbie forum.) I'm just branching into the sign business (I've been screen...
Do you use a form of some kind in which the customer gives you written permission to install a sign and releases you from liability for future problems? I can envision all kinds of potential problems without such a form...Like the customer's landlord finds out you drilled holes in his wall and...
The ones on the existing sign appear to be bolted to the polycarbonate. Do I need glue as well?
My plan is to borrow a few of their letters so that I can use them as guides to get the track spacing right.
I'm doing a sign for a liquor store and it's the kind that has clear brackets mounted on it so that one can create messages with the changeable letters. I'd like to find out where to buy these brackets so that I can include them in my bid. My problem is, I don't know what these are called so I'm...
That's what I was thinking too. They also say to clean the glass with it beforehand, but it seems Windex would be fine for that.
Has anyone used Splash? I like the idea that it's concentrated and makes a whole gallon for half the price of Rapidtac...
The Rapidtac II application instructions say that the last step before removing the paper backing from a vinyl graphic should be to saturate the backing with Rapidtac II. But I'm thinking that since Rapidtac II is designed to help adhesive bond better, would that not create more of a bond...
