Or instead of routing the background, sandblasting it will give you a pebbled finish.

And at fast food joints, and I noticed one at the local grocery store deli... Yeah...it bugs me too.

Wow, that's crazy. It's weird that they give you a link to go to a browser that is capable of going into the dark web. (Since my wife and I watch CSI Cyber, and all the talk of the dark web, which I took as tv hype, is actually real... I started reading on it and found out about a couple of...

Ok, I'm not sure how to post a response without sounding snarky, but here goes. .. By starting off with your price redicously cheap, it will be almost impossible to get up to where you need to be to be competitive, much less profitable. If you are the cheapest guy in the area, word...

There's (3) options when it comes to gold. R tape has an outdoor durable gold, which is more like a mylar film. It will last a couple of years, and is the least expensive, and looks it. Make sure that you get the outdoor durable, or it will fail quickly. Sign Gold, which will last a lot...

I'm not sure about that program, but can you outline the elements and rout those areas with the 1/8" bit, and the other areas with the larger bit... It may look ugly on the screen, but it should work. The only thing is you will have to be dead on with the depth, or your going to have...

Yeah. It sounds like a nice project.

Dead on advice...

If they did that, how many customers would they loose? It's about time for me to upgrade, since I'm only on x5, but personally, if they attempt subscription rates, I'll stay right where I'm at...

+1. I am still very hesitant to use Avery, and I definitely don't use their reflective. Having to change reflective on one car 4 times was more than enough. (I worked for a guy at the time, and that's all he wanted to use... )

Have you thought about Gemini letter track and thin polycarbonate inserts?

And I thought I was getting shafted.... I got free shipping on anything over $100. But, they were trying to earn my business from Fellers, and pretty much matched or beat prices. The only short fall was they won't offer vinyl by the yard, which I know I pay a premium for, but it beats stocking...

I like Grimco's online ordering, and my sales rep, Scott, works his a$$ off for me, but I feel like I got screwed late last year. I ordered some vinyl, including an outdoor durable brushed silver. I called and got a price from Scott, and ordered it, and paid for it. A day or two later, I...

Exactly. When I first started, years ago, my boss would put in a fresh blade, and weeded for 2 minutes, then wander off. I would pick up the xacto, and I just couldn't seem to grab the centers. I would throw it into the table and couple of times, and start weeding. I would put the blade...

Several years ago, One Shot changed their formula to make the EPA happy. The issue is that without some of these additives, the paint shows signs of premature fading. I have one sign that I did 4 or 5 years ago with a very nice rich blue. I thinned it down according to instructions, and...

Somebody's nephew now has bragging rights. Wow, what a mess...

I highly recommend picking up several books and read up. Mastering Layout by Mike Stevens, and both Logo Design for Small Businesses by Dan Antonnelli. Logos can be difficult for some people to create, and designing one for yourself can be that much more difficult. If you find yourself in...

I wouldn't use rapid tac on any glass, cold or warm... I've tried rapid tac 2 before, and it took forever to stick... dry is the way to go. Just apply in small increments.

Long story short, I just did a job for someone that was in the sign business, but is retired. The job was letter a window for one of his old customers, and he gave me some material to do part of it. The material in question is a vinyl that looked like, felt like, and had a horrible odor...

Except I don't print, and don't want to. If I had a printer, I would print out a pms color swatch, and find a close match to the vinyl I have to use... I order my printing from a national wholesale supplier, because I am not going to spend thousands on a machine and stress about color...
