  1. Painting 1″ thick letters gatorboard (ultraboard)

    Thank you! Yes, CNC cut. Yes, indoor. I like the premasking and krylon idea. What other rattle can paints can I use with that material?
  2. Painting 1″ thick letters gatorboard (ultraboard)

    Hello. We are about to paint some dimensional letters made of 1″ ultraboard. It's a rush job and we have to paint them with a brush or roller. The letters are 24″ tall. Are there any tricks to it? So far I have learned that we are supposed to use latex primer (2 coats), sand it 220 and two...
  3. Wall Mural Quote and Method

    Thank you! I appreciate your feedback. I did not get the job. I will post a picture of the updated wall in a couple weeks. Or months. As somebody has noticed, the idea of the estimate "anywhere from $10000 to $16000" is to save time. It's not the only job I bid. I should have provided more...

    No support in the back. Just a 2″ x 4″.
  5. Wooden sandblasted sign 120″ x 60″ restoration pricing.

    Thank you! We used the original sign. This project is an interesting lesson for me. I did all wrong pricing wise. The reality has not matched the expectations from the very beginning: - Taking the sign down: the sign is 12' x 6' and it did not fit our suburban. I rented a trailer (+$50.00, +3...
  6. Wall Mural Quote and Method

    I am glad to post the design but it does not exist yet. I sent the estimate on Monday and have not heard from them yet.
  7. Wall Mural Quote and Method

    I am looking for some guidance/reassurance on a plan I have developed for a wall mural project. It is for two walls that need to be pressure washed and prepped (spot primed) then fully repainted with a new design. We are thinking that the project will take 2 weeks labor with 2 workers at $60/hr...
  8. Buying My First Bucke Ttruck

    Looks convincing.
  9. Buying My First Bucke Ttruck

    How should I look for that type of the truck? Flatbed bucket truck? Did you consider buying the lift and a flatbed truck separately? Would that be more expensive?
  10. Buying My First Bucke Ttruck

    I do not have a lot of experience in sign service. I am going to get the electricians license. Learning is part of the game. I do have some experience working on cars, that's why I like the flatbed truck option with a small engine (5.7 gmc). Owning a bucket truck has a lot of business potential...
  11. Buying My First Bucke Ttruck

    Thank you. I should think about it. I assume the setup time is longer with the trailer.
  12. Buying My First Bucke Ttruck

    Thank you for the replies! I would prefer keeping it simple: a flatbed truck with the boom. What is your opinion on this one: '02 GMC ALTEC 45' ARTICULATED TELESCOPIC BUCKET BOOM TRUCK NO CDL 25900GVW
  13. Buying My First Bucke Ttruck

    I love the 350! How is that type of the bucket is called? Did you buy it locally or on ebay?
  14. Buying My First Bucke Ttruck

    Hello. At the ISA 2017 trade show, I learned that sign service is an interesting field. We have a cutter and a printer. I want to buy a used bucket truck now. I would like to use it for sign installations and sign repair. The budget is $10.000. What should I look for? - height - type of the...
