In that case, I'd say you could maybe go with a 2" square post cap. It should still work, you just may need to drill and tap new set screw locations that are closer to center or use longer set screws. Another option might be to find some galvanized 2.25" OD pipe with a 1/8" wall, cut them to...

Grimco has them, although it says they are compatible with 2 3/8" posts... https://www.grimco.com/Catalog/Products/PipePostHeavyDutyStreetSignBracket

That sounds promising. Hahaha!

I got an email this morning about Duratex, a new line of banner, adhesive vinyl, and rigid substrate now available through Grimco. Does anyone have the scoop on any of these products? The ad refers to them as 'value' products so I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

This is one of the various situations where an application table can come in very handy.

We do the same thing. It's a good way to use up 631 vinyl that's left over from previous jobs. Once cut, I palm sand the edges right up to the template, peel off the template, rout-a-burr the edges, and mount and trim the print.

Whatever you do, do NOT use Primer 94 with Orajet vinyl. This has been discussed numerous times here on this forum and here is a link to an article discussing just that... https://blog.signwarehouse.com/3m-tape-primer-94-and-vehicle-wrapping/ Orajet films have aggressive enough adhesive that I...

And here I would have taken Tex for more of a fanny pack kind of guy.

Even so, when the customer insists on doing it his way after being advised to do otherwise, do you turn the job down? Heck no, you take the money, do the job, and move on.

I don't know if it's just a bad image or not, but it's somewhat similar to Lobster Two.

Been there, done that. I gave my opinion and the business owner didn't want to hear it. To people walking by on the sidewalk, the black shows up alright, but from street level, you can barely see a thing. I think the dark grey on the door may have been an even worse choice than the black.

The only butthurt here is obviously coming from the guy in the pink top and lavender blue pants. o_O

Drawing is not your forte. Photography is probably out of the question as well.

I guess when you're talking paintings, artists are possibly much more critical of the finished product, whereas our customers who just want a decent quality photo reproduction and see our samples in our showroom space are probably content enough with the output of our printer. There are days...

If latex and eco-solvent inks will last a few years outdoors unlaminated, I wouldn't even be remotely worried about indoor durability, even under extreme lighting conditions. Would it really make that much of a difference if you're only printing canvas though? Seeing as the canvas has an...

You are correct. I edited my reply.

We use translucent cal (8500) for backlit applications, as opposed to transparent. Transparent cal seems more appropriate for glass applications or any application where you would want to be able to see through, like office doors and windows. Anymore, we do most of our backlit faces printed on...

One would have thought that was pretty obvious, or at least I'm sure it was to most of us anyway. Some people are a little slow I guess. You've lost any and all credibility you might have still had left with me on that comment. You must watch too much TV. Never in my 20 plus years as a tattoo...

Nice Photoshopped gun. Lol.
