    And your final quote was?
  2. Election Signs

    Good find. CAVEAT: never use anything less than true .024. That's the min. thickness you want. We use that stuff and give a written warranty that the signs will last the life of the campaign be it one day or one year. Hurricanes included. If you don't wish to print but still offer campaign...
  3. stencil

    Here is where a Gerber or Summa shines. I had a fellow sign shop make me a boat name with graphics on a Gerber Edge and no lamination. It has been on at least 5 years and looks great. I plod along in saltwater and when it sits on the trailer in the Florida sun the decal on the transom isn't...
  4. Best flatbed for corrugated plastic

    Getting poly sheets from anyone that are truly square can be a chore. Sometimes just getting a sheet that is the right size (not off by an 1/8" or more) can be frustrating as well. Most folks will be happy to know that several suppliers are working on a top coating to facilitate flat bed...
  5. Election Signs

    I have a local paper converter who also makes display boxes that carries it. They buy it on huge rolls, cut it to size and do the die scoring and deliver to our door. You need to buy local. Freight is a killer. if you were in the Northeast I'd say try American Cardboard in PA. In your...
  6. Vinyl On Bare MDO / Plywood

    Raw wood holds moisture. When the moisture evaporates, it pops off the vinyl. Maybe if he hit it with some spray 90 before applying it would hold for a while.
  7. Solar Lights?

    I can't tell you where to buy them but you may query your state highway dept. Panels about 2' x 3' and a battery pack right under the panel. Put it on an 18' pole and cover the pole with anti-climb paint (keep folks honest). Run the wire down to the sign lamp. A local light shop can sell...
  8. Vehicle Wraps.. now Body Wraps ?

    This works too.
  9. Bullnose Effect

    Hmmmm....just like a rounded squeege. Good luck with that on a sign edge if you don't have a good router setup.
  10. Stock logos for everyone!

    Am I the only one who sees this at that page?
  11. Election Signs

    We have been printing the 22" x 28" fold overs for years (scored 2 different ways) and we have custom-made sign frames for them. But you have to offer both coro and poly-coated paper.
  12. I wasn't going to buy a house until I saw the real estate agent's face on the sign

    Yesterday I got a sales brochure form a RE co. I used to do a lot of work for. The pic of the agent, at least to me, heavily emphazied her chest assets mor than anything else. Sex sells!!!
  13. Copyright Notice Examples

    What year was that? After 78 it wasn't lawfully an IP case. I have no idea what you are referring to but it could have been a case where PHYSICAL property was stolen (photo's, drawings, etc.). That is a state jurisdiction issue. I can't understand how you can cling to your...
  14. Windshield price lettering

    Never shoe polish. Glass Wax. It can be tinted and applied with a brush. Washes off in the rain, though. Good enough for the third-rate 'buy-here, pay-here' places...lol!!!
  15. font help

    Possibly Aarvark Cafe.
  16. Font ID Please

    The script looks a lot like Libby Script.
  17. Suppliers now competing for business

    I'd also send off a nasty-gram to the vinyl companies they rep.
  18. what would u charge

    A bullnose is a corner with a smooth radius. You can buy bull nose bricks and tile to get a nice effect. What it means on a sign is anyone's guess. That should be specifically specified in a drawing/blueprint.
  19. Serialing / Badging in X3

    Corel forums have scads of info as that is a common question. EX: http://coreldraw.com/forums/t/18582.aspx Just search "consecutive numbers." Supposedly Sign Tools makes that easy. I can't attest to that.
  20. Roland Printers from Indonesia

    If the seller mentions Western Union or any such pay option ... run for the hills. If you do get lucky and have SOMETHING delivered, it won't be a real Roland. Just a cheap knockoff.
