Lexel has a very similar smell as the glue you would use on model cars - I'm guessing it shares similar ingredients that aid in its adhesion to plastics. It actually 'etches' the surface of acrylic and polycarbonate and 'welds' to it. There's zero way it's separating once cured (you'd need a...

I like Opera. Zero issues. Fast. Doesn't hog resources.

If there's a concern about damaging the surface, I start with 250 pound Kevlar line (<link). That usually does the trick. If it doesn't, try a thin, flexible 4" putty knife. Surround the sign with masking tape on the wall so the blade and handle don't scrape the wall.

Use VHB and Lexel, they won't go anywhere. And no need to sand the backs of the letters - the Lexel 'melts' into the acrylic.

I've had good success with 3M Command Strips. They're pricey but won't mar the wall.

I would either: 1.) Use brackets, painted to match, off the mullions (to carry the weight) and then use a combination of VHB (yes, it will adhere) and Lexel to keep it adhered to the wall. or 2.) I'd leave them the sign and let them worry about the installation and liability. No way I...

Just restating what has already been said, but use Lexel, not silicone. On something this large, a few studs to carry the weight is a good idea. Might also be a good idea to grind off a few spots of paint on the building just for extra reassurance. Apply Lexel directly to those spots and you'll...

It's really not that many pieces. You could cut a stencil-pattern. Tape it to the wall, it's as easy as putting the oval peg in the oval hole, the square peg in the square hole, etc. This was done with stencil-cut patterns: In cases where a paper pattern is provided, I used to cut the...

Users of Lexel:

I made the mistake of attending a similar show in Dallas. Bought a package deal where I could set out flyers, business cards, etc. It basically resulted in a TON of emails from SEO companies, webhosting companies, etc. They bombarded me with emails and it took months to get them all marked as...

McFarland He's great to work with and fairly priced.

I'd get a 10' sheet and avoid the seam.

It's the customer's sign, so it should be up to them. I'm with Gino on the car thing...that's one of the first things I do when I get a new car is remove the dealer-applied lettering.

For what it's worth, I'll add this: Drywall is rarely perfect. The surface is often uneven due to studs not being flush with each other, etc. If there are irregularities in the finished surface the strips will be going on and you flush-mount them with tape, they may follow/reflect/highlight any...

RP45 (half the price) and Lexel.

Looks great!

I don't understand what I'm seeing in the picture. To me it looks like two square tubes.
