  1. What do you collect

    My wife and I travel a lot and I used to travel a ton when I did sign surveys. Trying different beer is a bit of a hobby for me. I have over 500 different beer bottles. The worst one I've ever had was Cave Creek Chili beer. The bottle comes with a chili pepper in it and tastes like what you'd...
  2. Adhering plexi on wall, but with face-mounted vinyl on it...

    Common terminology: Vinyl on the face side of something is often referred to as 1st surface. Vinyl on the back side of something is often referred to as second surface. Does the vinyl cover the entire 2nd surface? Do you have artwork or photos of the sign? How large is the sign? Details......

  5. temporary sign covering backlit

    Sounds like you've got the info you need. Just thought I'd clarify the banner bag (or commonly called "toaster cover") method of covering a sign cabinet. Having a banner sewn similar to a toaster cover (with grommets at the bottom) enables you to just slide it over the top and tie it together at...
  6. Help locating a product

    We always got it straight from Wagner. Keep in mind there's a top track, middle track, and bottom track.
  7. Installing one inch aluminum letters

    Below are some pretty small letters I had to install recently. I used VHB tape (the thicker stuff - customer spec) and silicone and was just really, really careful. The stroke width was extremely thin, so where silicone did show, I wiped up what I could with a Q-tip and then came back with a...
  8. Installing one inch aluminum letters

    If it were me, I would apply the clear VHB tape (the thinnest one - I forget the number). If you are that against using VHB and they sent a pattern and they're drilled for studs, I would use the studs and tiny dabs of silicone in the holes. The problem with thin strips of VHB tape is it can...
  9. Adhesive for Metal Letter Install On Exterior Tile Wall

    The quick answer: Yes. Would I want to install 14" letters without a stud or two? No. I would always worry. That being said, if you use VHB and silicone - it would take a lot to remove them. But I would still worry. That being said, I would use a little 1-minute epoxy as well. If you use...

    Thank you!
  11. Full window vinyl install...

    That looks great - and, agreed - nice shop! I suppose it's the rule to eliminate/discard the lettering that falls where the mullions are, correct? In other words you don't split a letter and just move it over. (make sense?)
  12. Full window vinyl install...

    I know!! There's a funny (kind of) story behind that... So, Phillip designed my logo. We went through a ton of revisions and finally arrived at the finished product. A few months back, I was eating at this awesome Salvadorian restaurant that is by the sign company I worked at for 10 years. I...
  13. Best Sandblast mask for raw HDU

    Hey - someone from B-ville. I lived up that way for a while (Fulton/Oswego). Welcome to the site. Marcus (a member on here) is from Oswego. Maybe you can feed each other work. Sorry to hijack the thread. :peace!:
  14. Full window vinyl install...

    I'm purposely leaving information out to string you guys along. jk...I'm a bit tired and am leaving out details, sorry. There are multiple windows. The estimated time was per window including drive time. It's local, so no big deal there. And that's exactly how this job is - not sure what...
  15. Full window vinyl install...

    I know, I left a lot of needed information out. This is pretty preliminary, so I don't even have much information quite yet. Just wanted to put some feelers out to get some others thoughts. I believe the windows are all lower level/1st story and easily accessible. They'll definitely have to be...
  16. Full window vinyl install...

    Curious where you guys would be at time-wise on a window measuring 100"h (±) x 66"w (±)? There are a few vertical and a few horizontal. The vinyl will be digitally printed to include text/graphics which will need to be staggered around the mullions. Thanks!
  17. Engraved Steel Tags

    Joyce can do it - I promise. Forgot to ask - what's the diameter of the exhaust primaries (assuming that's what these are for)? I was on that site until low 11's became slow. :noway:

    These guys do great work and are simply great to work with. They've been around since the mid-50's I believe. If you call, ask for Randy and tell him I referred you, please.
