    In my case, it was on carpet. But one time in 5+ years... I'll take it!

  3. Maroon Aluminum Clad panel?

    I'll contact my rep and see about getting a color chip. Thanks
  4. Maroon Aluminum Clad panel?

    Excellent idea. I hadn't thought of painting red panels.
  5. Maroon Aluminum Clad panel?

    I was afraid of that. Thanks for the input. I have bought maroon in the past, but it may have been someone else's overstock for all I know.
  6. Maroon Aluminum Clad panel?

    Hey guys, I was just wondering if you knew of any brands (i.e. Max Metal, Compbond, Signabond, Alucobond, etc) that offers a D/F 4'x8' panel in maroon? I have several signs coming up that will have a maroon background and don't want to wrap the faces with vinyl or paint them if there is a...
  7. hello from Fairfield Glade Tennessee

    Hello from Murray, KY. I used to play a lot of golf in Fairfield Glade in my younger days.
  8. Does this happen at your shop often?

    On the flip side of the equation, I sent a guy a small jpg of a mock up for his sign. I did get an artwork deposit, and even made the sign, but about a year later, I saw one of his business cards that had used my original low quality thumbnail jpg. I would have gladly sent off for his cards...
  9. Rant - my turn

    Consider yourself lucky. I've been asked, "how much per letter". Typically those kind of people are looking for mailbox numbers and they only have a couple of minutes to prove themselves before I direct them to Wal-Mart.
  10. Long Lasting Outdoor Signage

    I also haven't had luck using an acrylic overtop. I did that on one sign, and it got condensation between the two. The condensation wasn't bad, but it was like sunlight through a magnifying glass and absolutely nuked the vinyl. Redid the sign without acrylic and the life span is almost...
  11. Oracal 751 and 951 cast vinyl compatability

    The only thing I've ever encountered is sometimes I have to wipe over the 951 with alcohol or prep-sol before adhering 751 directly to it. Vise versa seems easier, but I have no problem mixing the two.
  12. Does anyone know of a removable adhesive vinyl that isnt 54" wide?

    Oops, I skipped a part. So are you thinking more like Oracal 3621? Available in 30, 36, 50, 54 and 60" widths?
  13. Does anyone know of a removable adhesive vinyl that isnt 54" wide?

    What about Oracal 631?
  14. Bright Pink Wrapping vinyl

    I really need a 3M color book!
  15. Bright Pink Wrapping vinyl

    Hey guys, I have a customer that is entertaining the idea of wrapping a 4 door jeep for his daughters birthday present. He doesn't really want to paint a good jeep and be hung with it a few years later when she is ready for a new vehicle, so he was asking about wrapping it. I use a lot of...
  16. Best source for PVC sign kits?

    I use Denver Sign Supply for the standard size, plain jane kits. http://www.denversignsupply.com/category.cfm?catref=478C6B11-D7AB-39B6-8C23C99DD9F77133&catname=PVC%20Sign%20Frame
  17. Using Pvc for hanging sign

    If using 1 inch, make sure you have the bracket anchored well, and if on a pole, make sure it's in the ground really well. That's a lot of weight over time and we have all seen our fair share of drooping, hanging signs over the years. If I were going to make a sign like that, I would fab up...
  18. brightest green cast ?

    I use Oracal Lime Tree green quite a bit. It's not the fluorescent they usually want, but it will last. If you use a fluorescent that fades out in less than a year, the customer is going to be much unhappier than settling for a duller green.
  19. Coroplast Signs

    In my opinion, the signs will be destroyed or stolen before you notice any significant fading.
  20. Vehicle Wrap Pricing in Arizona gone crazy?

    Bingo! However I have noticed some customers coming back after they make their rounds.
