R&J definately. If you don't like the feel of Grimco's conglomeration, give your business to the small business to keep competition alive! After all, most of us are small business.

We have a CNC and a sandblaster. The sandblasted signs take more time as far as prep and cleanup. Instead of sandblasting, we try to sell textured backgrounds: smalt & cnc textures. All in all, I would much rather not do sandblasting, but some insist on it so it is worthwhile to offer...

Thinking outside the box, is there any way to tie in a Kitchen or Bath Graphic like a faucet or something? Maybe make the cloud morf into a faucet. Just exploring... Also, if they want to keep the "and", how about giving it some motion? Your update definately takes the 80's feel out of...

20 of 20. Just an all around better use of negative space!

We use Clear Path as well with no issues. Perf must be laminated, or rain drops will gather in the perf and obscure vision! Clean the window thoughougly using 50/50 water/rubbing alcohol solution. Make sure window is lint free and clean! Pay careful attention to removing moisture from all...

However, vinyl is useful when painting on concrete walls! Have used it with a sprayer with good results.

We run the Gerber Composer & Artpath programs to operate our 408. Ditto Signdog. We also tape a piece of paper to the vaccuum. It will flap when running. It's hard to hear it running with all the noise and ear protection.

Agreed. Sticks & Stones...but useful help is hard to find.

Yep, all 4 is an amazing coincidence! I'd replace the 4 at half cost-(you're a good guy but not a sucker), explain with the above info what might be going on, and suggest permanent graphics as the best solution.

Window Perf works the same as vinyl. Dry install. Just make sure the Perf is cut about 1/8" from the rubber seal on the window.

So you got a wrinkle in your glass-etch vinyl. Any wrinkle is a redo.

Dale, We have several different sizes of the Big Squeegee and they all come in handy! The smallest I have used on everything including windows and vehicles. Thanks for the discount!

Just did it dry on a window this past weekend. It was 35 degrees & everything turned out fine. My modified 10" Big Squeegee came in handy on the larger graphics. I cleaned the glass with a razor to get off any paint. Any adhesive residue on the window was addressed with All-Off or Rapid...

We use All-Off. Similar to Orange Peel. You can get it by the gallon here: http://www.rjsign.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=RSS&Product_Code=AOGL

We tape the graphic to the cutting table using painters tape. Unroll a few inches of the transfer tape and secure it to the table. Getting it flat is the trick! I lightly tack the middle edge of the transfer paper to the table and place the big squeegee on top of that and slowly work the tape...

Ahh...Letter application: We route our letters separately and gold leaf them. On the smalted substrate we have the same letters with about a 1/8" contour border that are raised and flat. That is, when the gold leafed letters are mounted, they are mounted to the raised flat letters on the...

Transfer Tape!!!

I would see if you could buy an old version of Estimate 2 that doesn't have a monthly fee. It seems this is an excessive fee, at least to me, for Estimate 2011. That is why we still run on the old version. Since you have used the old version in the past, I would put pressure on Estimate to...

Your site is full of good designs. Some do not look like your own...Dan Antonelli's. Unless you want to hire an employee, as suggested, I recommend reading up on some of Dan's stuff. He's got quite an archive with SignCraft Magazine.
