cover up pharmacy signs

[Norman Clifton]

reaching out for any suggestions on the most affordable and practical way to cover up backlit signage
client has closed a store and needs his existing signage covered for legal reasons
all i can think of is a block-out vinyl with removable adhesive

 

[Boudica]

Can you tell us what the legal reasons are?

 

[Norman Clifton]

not sure - client just called and was adamant that he has requirements to cover it up
i didn't want to argue with him

Around here most places just roll black paint over the whole thing, or you can flip the acrylic panel around and turn off the lights

 

[Norman Clifton]

oh i like roll black paint over it - easier than laying vinyl- preference for paint?

Happened to a 7-11 accross the street. VHB tape and colored coroplast.

According to the size, just bungee it with a block-out banner.

As for legal reasons, they generally do not pertain to us, so it's not necessary we know the reasons, just that we do it by the date submitted.

If the sign is not being reused, paint, if it may be reused, a tarp

This will only work if the lights are off.. it can shine right through flatbed coro and some coro's with vinyl

I think black coroplast and VHB is the simplest, quickest and least damaging option.

Just remove the letter "P" now it does not say Pharmacy

I as just remember hearing that back in the day if someone didn't pay for their sign you would roll it out with black paint, that was a signal to other sign shops the place was a deadbeat. Never did it myslef but did see it done a couple times.

Roll this on there... One coat and you're done.
