We have a job to install 10" high letters on a Corten steel wall panel. Originally we were going to use stud mounted aluminum letters but the contractor is suggesting we apply a sealant and glue the letters using APS 500 sealant instead of stud mount. This will eliminate the aluminum/steel...
I'm designing a sign for a day care business. The building is a barnyard red color. They want "kid friendly" colors on the sign as well as the barnyard (burnt) red. I'm not good at choosing colors. I know there is a science to working with colors. I'm looking for a program where I can pick a...
Interior office wall - wants to install lettering and logo on this surface. Looks like job I don't want or is it no problem? There are 12 letters 12" to 18" high plus a rectangular word panel 6" x 45". Naturally the letters would be stud mounted. Not sure about drilling in to this material...
I have a client who wants vinyl wall graphics in his new office. We waited a week after the wall was painted and tested some different vinyls on it. The test pieces failed. We don't have any problems putting vinyl lettering on exterior signs that we paint with latex exterior house paints. Is...
Try to avoid using very dark colors on 1/4" PVC. I'm assuming you are painting the PVC. The 1/4" thickness can become distorted when in direct direct sunlight. White or light colors are OK.

This is my concern- that the municipality would hold me accountable for the sign being un-permitted and make me take it down or suspend my license. Then the customer would be mad at me also in addition to being in trouble with the city. I guess the only way I would know for sure if this would...
We have always done things on the "up and up" when it comes to business. We are licensed to install signs in several counties. Sign permitting has gotten much more complicated and expensive in the past few years. I'm tired of losing business to other companies who undercut our pricing and...
This makes sense to me. I'll try it if it happens again, which is hopefully never. My tech person said I should be checking for updates manually every week or at lease once a month to avoid problems. But it seems to me that the updates are what's causing the problems.
Recently had to call my computer tech person to fix a problem with our in-house computer network. For some reason we couldn't share files between computers. I was told that because I was missing updates all sorts of problems occurred which was the cause of losing the network. How can that be...
