The apprentice is in the frozen section.....?

Yeah, I've had them. They're good, but not out of this world good. I've lived all over NY and even my podunk hometown has better.

Are those from Anchor? :rock-n-roll:

I prefer GrubHub. They're typically less expensive. If I'm out of town installing, I typically use them for dinner so I can sit in the hotel and get work done.

It's stamped concrete, you can see the vertical seam where the forms met up.

That's blasphemy. I'll pretend you didn't say that.

Bob Schneider and Old 97's are my most frequently played...

You should give the Old 97's a listen. Start with the Graveyard Whistling album.

Looks like 3" steel tube since the corners are rounded. Might try Metal Supermarkets in Dallas. They'll cut it to length and pretty sure they can weld it up for you too.

Tucking 1/2" of vinyl is a pain? Sounds like an installer issue....

I'd avoid the headache and get a new set of clear-coated letters from Steel Art.

It should be pretty straightforward. This was air egress. Customer wanted it inset with the border but there's no reason you couldn't go full coverage and give it a bit of bleed and run it past the door. You'll need to cut around the opening for the drop key.

Coming from someone who has had to remove a number of signs over the years that I have personally installed with Lexel, I would love to see a product that adheres as well in the situation being described. The stuff does not let go. If it does, you did something wrong. For those of you with...

Silicone doesn't adhere well to acrylic/polycarbonate/plastics. Use Lexel (available from Lowes, not Home Depot) or stud-mount.

I've seen them but don't have one. Lots of mixed reviews on durability. I like my Fatmax and Komelon tapes.

Paint the insides of the letters with Matthews High Reflective White.

You're hitting rebar. Use Bosch Bulldog Xtreme bits. They'll go through rebar without issue, assuming you're using a decent SDS rotary hammer (and it WILL cut through rebar in seconds). You're not going to hurt the concrete by drilling the rebar. No cobalt or diamond bits needed. No regular...

Taping them would be fine. A 2'x3' piece of ACM weighs a whopping 6 pounds. Three 1"x1" pieces down the sides, four along the top and bottom (you don't even need that many - it's mainly to keep it from looking wavy by having multiple points of attachment. A few dabs of Lexel or silicone and it's...

Haven't read all of the comments but the easiest way is to just paint the backs.
