Attaching HDU Logo to Tile

[PaulyD]

Hi Guys,

Newbie here looking for guidance on what would you suggest is the best way to attach the concept logo below (made out of 1" HDU foam) to granite tile or drywall? The client has not yet finalized what they plan on using for the final wall material. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thx

Studs and silicone.
If the sign is really big, use anchors.

Thank you GaSouthpaw...I apologize for not including the image originally...it's in there now. The logo is going to be 60x60" which is quite big. Would you have a reference image of how this can be done using anchors? thanks in advance.

If it's tile or stone, I think VHB & Lexel would hold it fine. A few studs if you are really worried, but then there will be permanent holes in what looks like an expensive wall. If drywall studs & silicone

Thank you Billct2, I was thinking the same thing...maybe clear VHB 4910 or 4915 if the client chose to go with granite tile or patina'd metal.

IF USING TAPE & LEXEL ONLY, BE SURE TO PAINT THE BACK

Good point Spectrum. I always paint the backs so hadn't mentioned that.

VHB should be fine with drops of silicone or lexel. Why so thick though on that logo

RJPW go figure...HDU was spec'd by the interior architectural designers. We did try to get them to go PVC but they were set on using HDU. Thanks for all the great feedback.

another job that could have been cheaper to the customer but was wasted on another dumba$$ architect and thier world of imaginary unicorn products
