  1. Client Error wants Warranty

    How did he chip through it? Chisel, pocketknife?
  2. Kawasaki Green

    You can actually come close with PMS 369. But it really depends on the year of Kawasaki and/or brand and batch of plastic. The plastics are not all the same color, and Kawasaki changes it from time to time. Years ago we could use PMS 376, but now that's too bright.
  3. Cold-weather silicone for exterior Gemini/stud installs?

    We use GE clear Advanced Silicone 2. The purpose of sealant when installing Gemini letters is not to glue the letter to the wall, but to seal the hole. The studs will hold the letter to the wall by friction alone. The silicone will enhance that, and prevent water intrusion into the substrate...
  4. Suggestions Supplier for Router-cut ACP

    Looking for a supplier of custom router-cut 6mm aluminum composite panel sign blanks. I browsed the merchant area but it doesn't seem any of them do this. Anyone know of a good one? I've searched and there are none within a reasonable drive of us.
  5. CorelDRAW Upgrade Protection Program Is Ending

    One of the new features of Corel365 is supposed to be integration of Google fonts
  6. BEWARE of South Water Signs

    They owe us too. Installed an HR Block sign for them. But the sign was damaged in shipping and required the replacement of a couple of letters. They sent them and we changed them out but they never paid for the repair labor even though they sent us a purchase order for it.
  7. CorelDRAW Upgrade Protection Program Is Ending

    Other than the obvious revenue stream of Corel365 (which they are getting from UPP subscribers), it appears to me that the practical reason they need to change the software and subscription has to do with new cloud based services. When I look at the feature grid for the new products, it is some...
  8. Vinyl, stencil or freehand these signs?

    Except that for him in Nova Scotia it's ACA compliance.
  9. Calendered vinyl with a good shine?

    Avery 750 is nice and glossy. But in short supply right now.
  10. Polished edges on acrylic

    What are you making from your acrylic? Things like room number signs where the edge is in view? The quickest way of dealing with the edges is a sanding block. And then you don't have the potential fragility that flame polishing causes. You said you're mostly using 18x24 and 24x36. Signs that...
  11. Question IS GRIMCO LIKE THIS WITH EVERYTHING?

    I don't have any issue with pricing from Grimco, no problems with variable pricing. However, before I ever placed an order with them, way long ago when I started in business, I opened a credit account with them. Now, I get my pricing all the time, whether I call them or just order online. And...
  12. Gemini Lead times

    I ordered some acrylic letters 2/7, received proof the night of 2/8, which I approved 2/9. Received the letters 2/22. All pretty normal times.
  13. Swim caps

    Speedo makes both latex and silicone caps.
  14. Menu board for a bakery/ice cream shop

    Having done menu boards for a caramel corn/popcorn place using coroplast for a quick temporary sign while we were designing their permanent sign, I can say that coroplast will not endure the heat. Warping and sagging made them ugly in just a couple of weeks.

  17. FOUND IT! Thanx anyway... :)

    I didn't see your original post but the version I have on my computer is called Homoarakhn
  18. Stainless steel rocker panels - how do they line up?

    You have the stainless steel set for a Double Cab HD truck, but the truck in your picture is a Crew Cab HD truck. The back door on the Crew Cab is bigger.
  19. 3M IJ180 Controltac alternative?

    The Avery 2923 is a decent vinyl, but it's not anywhere near the same kind of material that the 180C is. It's a calendared vinyl whereas the 180C is cast. That means it's thicker, stiffer, less conformable, and less dimensionally stable (it shrinks and pulls back from being stretched). It has a...
  20. 3M IJ180 Controltac alternative?

    You can get something in the other 4 inches of the vinyl, and print and contour cut it with no leader or trailer? I am talking about how much material is used to make it and how much that material costs.
