( the old signgold I would run about 70gr ) This stuff is much thicker than it used to be.
And at 105 gr I STILL couldn't weed...
I have a customer that has all oval signs on their property. I have been sealing my aluminum covered plywood (Lusterboard) with epoxy. I have also used silicone but I'm not convinced that silicone will last the life of the sign.
Any other suggestions for sealing the edges of round signs...

So, I am doing a back lighted sign over for a friend. The top portion is black with white letters. The old sign had a flat black vinyl on it.
I don't have any flat black. Is there any reason not to use gloss black?
He is a good friend so if flat would work for better for some reason I'll get it.

I was told that if I want to print out to the edge of a contour cut that it has to dry overnight and then be laminated.This will prevent the edges from curling.
How can I hold the contour cut overnight?
I am doing a job that I don't want to see a white outline around the print. In my past experience when I print to the edge of the contour cut, the vinyl wants to curl up as it dries. Is there any way to stop this?

I saw the ad for Find my Font and it sounds like a very useful tool.
I waste a lot of time looking for fonts! Has anyone purchased this?
If so how has it worked out?
I'm trying to find a couple of logos for a customer, I've tried Brands o/t world and the internet with no luck. This is for an authorized distributor so I think I'm ok with copyright .
Their smaller companys (Dragon racing fuels, Excel racing chains) so thats probably why I can't find them...
I havn't done any gold leaf work for many years. I agreed to restore a carved gold leaf sign for a good customer and started looking at gold prices, WOW! I noticed that some companies offer 23K gold leaf online at very reasonable prices. I live in the boonies so getting it is not easy.
