  1. Is this a polycarb sign face?

    It looks to me like the face was made like a channel letter. That gold trim would be something like Edgelite, glued to the edge of the face. It doesn't look real big so it could be acrylic or polycarbonate. To take the face off you unscrew all those screws around the edge and it just pulls off...

  3. Phasing out phone calls

    If your customers are young Gen Z-ers maybe you can do things without verbal communication, but I find that I get a lot more out of a few minutes of conversation to determine the actual needs and budget of the person who is calling, and can then guide them towards the best solution for their...
  4. Not sure if I'm using the correct terminology................................................................................

    I was never a user nor a dealer. But the terminology was so pervasive back then you couldn't avoid hearing it as a child and teenager, even if you weren't exactly sure what they were talking about. Cheech and Chong albums being played on the radio were a large part of that.

    I believe your answer is in this old thread: https://www.signs101.com/threads/saving-as-a-pdf-from-flex-8.56353/
  6. Not sure if I'm using the correct terminology................................................................................

    Nickel and dime bags were named for the cost, not how much was in them. And then there was a lid, which was a volume measurement based on a jar or coffee can lid.
  7. Not sure if I'm using the correct terminology................................................................................

    We don't use liquid laminate. I also don't consider a 12"x22" decal to be small. We'd have laminated it if it needed protection.
  8. Suggestions Smoothest Gloss Overlaminates

    Avery DOL1360Z, which is optically clear also. We use it as our standard wrap overlaminate and it doubles for window perf.
  9. Installation code of conduct agreement?

    Some of the nearby school districts use these payment services. They claim it makes it so you get paid quicker. I am not really sure why they would use them, but I suspect that one of the primary reasons an organization might use them is to prevent embezzlement by a secretary.
  10. Best practice for cut vinyl ACM sign

    Although ACM is less expensive than sheet aluminum, I disagree that it is always "cheap" in terms of quality. Particularly since in colors other than white, aluminum is typically only available in .040" thickness. And, regarding another comment, colored sheet aluminum is white on the back side...
  11. Getting a new Epson Printer!

    The Epson Edge on your computer must be an entirely different animal from the Epson Edge I have on my computer. Unless the bundled version of Onyx is called Epson Edge. I don't have that any more because when they came to install mine they took the bundled software away since I had bought the...
  12. Best practice for cut vinyl ACM sign

    Fixed it for you
  13. Getting a new Epson Printer!

    Epson Edge is just a printer and media management app that runs from your browser. It doesn't print. So you will need to talk to your dealer about buying a RIP.

    Marker Felt Thin
  15. Getting a new Epson Printer!

    I just noted the OP is from Hong Kong. Who knows whether any RIP is included with the printer there. Or what RIP you can purchase. Nonetheless, I recommend starting out with a full RIP product that can print, panel, cut, profile, all of it, and learning that from your install instruction.
  16. Best practice for cut vinyl ACM sign

    I've never had trouble with black ACM. Seems to be just fine to me. Maybe it's brand dependent?
  17. PLEASE CALL SECURITY - looking for reflective blue

    I'm thinking the weird bulge in the stripe is because it's a graphic designed for a Dodge Charger or a Mustang that has a body bulge there.
  18. Getting a new Epson Printer!

    We've had our S80 since January and it's been great. I liked the S70670 it replaced but the S80 is even better and easier to use. The RIP that comes with the plotter is a lite version of Onyx, but you should do yourself a favor and get the full version of Onyx, either Production House or Thrive...
  19. Need Help Mounting help w/ PVC panels

    We did a museum project many years ago with printed PVC panels that we used 3/4" MDF boards sized smaller than the print painted black on the edges that were mounted to the wall with countersunk fasteners and then used 6mm PVC for the prints, attached to the MDF with a Lord adhesive that came in...
  20. Help with Art Deco Font / Contrast / Source

    Though the house was made in 1750, I don't think this sign was. They didn't use the word restroom back then.
