My customers amaze me..

My customers

I was asked today if a diabond sign would be bullet proof or could I use any material for this customer sign that is bullet proof... Seriously??

Anyone know where to get a sheet of 4' x 8' Kevlar??

 

[Slamdunkpro]

3/8 cold rolled steel will stop most small arms fire.

lol are the neighborhoods that rough out there?

 

[mikey-Oh]

Always heard Lexan was bullet resistant, though I've never put it to the test.

 

[SummitSignsandmore]

You gotta be tough to live on the Summit that's for sure. And firearms are pretty common around my parts...

 

[Alti-Plotter]

Some types of Lexan are bullet proof.
I hope your price for installing the sign includes the body-armour and Kevlar helmet you will need. Do not forget to check if your medical insurance is up do date and wave a white flag before you visit this customer. :Big Laugh

Get paid first, then tell him to hold the dibond in front of his head and fire a round off.

They stock 4x8 sheets and its suppose to be bulletproof. Maybe try finding a video of it or call and ask if they can show proof?

 

[S'N'S]

We used to make our pistol targets from 1/2" Bisalloy which wasn't real dear.
Not sure how a jacketed high calibre rifle bullet would go.

 

[routierracing]

I wouldn't want to make it my responsibility. I would tell find a bullet proof substrate on their own and then you will apply graphics transform it into a sign.

 

[signage]

I do not see what bullet proof substrate would do, the vinyl would be damaged even if the bullet did not go through. Also if you used a bullet proof cover of 1 1/2" Plexiglas it will craze when struck by a bullet. Just tell them it would be cheaper to just replace the sign!

 

[Craig Sjoquist]

If this customer is serious a brick wall should do the trick enough re-barb and concrete fill to solid up walls ..Then hire a sign painter to letter bet the cost would be total lower and have a much better image.

 

[Signed Out]

time to break out the 30-06 and test some lexan?

 

[Gino]

We had the same thing just yesterday.... these guys got a bullet-proof truck because they were afraid of getting shot at....... yeah right..........
