Thanks for that reply. I thought about that, waiting to cut the engraved areas. Priming and painting the flat areas, lay a mask and then cut the recessed with the mask on. Then prime and paint that area. Pull the mask off and clean up and leakage. I should try that.

I used a gravity fed paint sprayer with latex paints. Currently I'm just trying to learn. I appears that Matthews paint would be the best way to go if you were doing this all the time.

I am getting interested in doing HDU signs. I just cut our logo out of some painted it. There are some raised parts and engraved ones. I sprayed the whole thing with primer and then sprayed it with a darker background coat. I handpainted the the engraved portions and raised parts. I think...

Are you using Gorilla glue? If so, which one? If no, what other polyurethane are you using?

Using some ACM in the middle is a good idea. If I decide to do one two inch piece and buy a longer router bit to cut the perimeter, are there any good tricks to getting registration to cut the other side? I can print registration marks on styrene and place the styrene on the non engraved side...

Hello, We have glued HDU panel together in the past, but it has been a couple of years. We want to do some double sided oval hdu signs that are two inches thick. I figure doing two 1" inch hdu signs and gluing together is easier than a two inch hdu sign. All my router bits are only two...

Thank you!

Although we have been in the sign business for several years, we live in a town with very strict sign ordnances. Over the past several years we have produced only a couple signs faces for back lit signs. We printed on Translucent Vinyl and applied it to white Polycarbonate. Both times the...

We have been asked to create stencils for a Pizza restaurant so they can paint large letters (about 30" tall) on a wall. Light background with bright letters. Just curious if anyone has done this and what the best approach would be. I am thinking we will paint the bright color first, cut...

We have had our Mimaki JFX 200 for less than a year. We did some MDO signs for a realitor several months ago . We printed 4 x 8 sheets on Primed MDO and they came out great. We did this a couple of times without issue. Some time passed and we tried printing on primed again but got blemishes...

Yes, I should have asked "Is there a good option..." but I was in a hurry. I have heard Frog Juice is crap. I do not know one way or another. We hust printed a small sign for a customer that liked the idea of direct print. They like the look of the sign but an employee of theirs banged the...

Would you mind sharing what that would be?

We purchased a flatbed a few months ago and love it! But I was wondering if there is a good option for giving some extra protection to Diabond prints without overlaminating. Is there a spray or something?

Yes, The high price is what I discovered. I was really looking for a good outsource for it. I need two prints.

Does anyone have a good source for flex face?
