  1. Solar windows film installation

    Maybe there is a window tint forum somewhere online? Most sign shops don't window tint. I send all my customers to my friend who's tint guy quit so he's in the same boat as you with learning. He begged me to teach him but I don't know how to do it so that was a dead end, hence why I send them...
  2. Check fraud scam, new on me, at least this way

    For real? That's really cool! I'll have to ask about that once. I was using my phone but with my Wave accounting software it's easier if I do one bulk deposit.
  3. Check fraud scam, new on me, at least this way

    I wrote my BF a check for $300 and the plumber for $360. Six weeks later neither were cashed. One thing I hate is I only have a PO box and the post office opens after I get to work and closes before I leave. They are also closed for an hour over lunch so I usually only go on Fridays.
  4. Check fraud scam, new on me, at least this way

    I prefer to receive checks but hate writing them out. If I send you a check you have about 7 days to cash it before I cancel it. I don't have a check register, I just use my online banking to send money, everything comes out right away, you always know your balance. Except when some idiot...
  5. Universal Brand Silver Metallic Pinstripe...

    Looking for a couple feet of this Universal Brand vinyl to cut a few do-dads to add to the end of the stripes. I have some FDC Ultra Metallic Silver but it's too metallic. Oracal Silver Metallic doesn't seem metallic-y enough. It's a long shot but I figured I would ask, I'm not able to find...
  6. Labor/Service Cost. How do you charge??

    You could use the SignCraft pricing guide for some labor rates for a starting point. I just checked my last book which is from 2020. The labor rates are in 4 categories. $59hr, $82hr, $104hr, $126hr. Around here they are around $65-80. Something you might find helpful is to fill out a labor rate...
  7. Todays school aged kids get gentle grades...

    You make an excellent point! Not only are the kids responsible for their own grades in college but for themselves as well. My son was always a bit shy and he decided to go to college 7 hours away. There were several times he called me crying and wanted to come home the first couple months. He...
  8. No Snowflakes or Bleedinghearts need to post

    We were just talking about an older guy in town that was in the CIA then brainwashed upon discharge. Brain is mush and he’s like a teenager. It worked. Of course it’s not like he has a doctor excuse listing brainwashing but it’s what the family and friends say happened. He was quite high up in...
  9. Unrealistic requests/deadlines

    Just some random scruffy guy that walked in and said he made one with a sheet and his buddies picked on him so he wanted to show off with a professional banner lol I didn’t have any banner blanks and the banner roll was on the printer so I just printed it quick. Thanks! Just sitting here waiting...
  10. 2022's new overused business word.

    “By rights…” that one is over used as well Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. Need help fast!

    I see nobody answered this so I'll take a stab. I used to make those decorative wood signs using the same paint mask on pine wood. It rarely sticks completely to the wood. If I had an intricate design, I sprayed from a spray can a light coat of clear coat and let it dry good. No matter what, I...
  12. My gray has a pinkish to it

    I'm not a color expert but I've been using only shades of black for gray and my pink problems are much better now.
  13. Unrealistic requests/deadlines

    I'm leaving tomorrow for the rest of the week to go camping with my family and about 25 others. Anyway -- some guy came in 15 minutes ago asking me if I could make him a banner by Friday...it's printing right now... I could not turn this last minute order down...too funny!
  14. 2022's new overused business word.

    I feel so blessed to be able to read these posts... "Blessed" - the most overused word on Facebook EVER. Reading my friends posts who constantly #blessed or say how blessed they are today...ugh, gag me with a spoon! The church would burn down if half of them stepped inside!
  15. Looking for this panther clipart in vector format

    Post #2 Fred identified it as his...post #5 he states that he sells Adobe the license for some of his artwork
  16. Looking for this panther clipart in vector format

    Bobaloo58 vectoring artwork is frowned upon on this site. However, helping a member with vectoring a customers logo or assisting with fonts or design is fine. A few months ago I asked for assistance with photoshopping some photos and Boudica helped me. I think last week someone was looking for a...
  17. Short Introduction

    WOW...that Rick Archer guy is a nut job! Sounds like he had some kind of obsession with "Chris Art". I hope Boboloo isn't actually Chris...LOL
  18. Plexiglass or lexan ?

    You can use ACM board which is cheaper than 3/8" acrylic. If you use 1/8" you might have to put some screws in the center, I would think it would warp? You can use the 3m ACM and screw it to the plywood to make it more rigid. Gosh...painted plywood, must not be a real high end dance place, more...
