  1. Grimco buys Advantage Sign & Graphic Solutions/Advantage Sign Supply

    I don't know about the (opti-koat 30#) , but I have aways used the kraft paper from Grimco. I did have to send one back for being smashed in the middle.

  3. graphtec eye help!!!

    Without knowing the model, it just sounds like maybe the front or rear set got changed. I think if you hit enter after you pull lever it will switch front or back. I could be wrong but I would just check that.
  4. Any TSF-45 users want to share advice?

    Thanks for the reply. I have some on the way to try out. I talked to Coastal today and they said mostly just try a few technics, but hopper gun sounded like the best way to go.
  5. Any TSF-45 users want to share advice?

    Thanks for the reply. But I'm looking for advice on TSF-45 only. It is a product for HDU to give it certain textures. I'm not talking about Drivit type products.
  6. Any TSF-45 users want to share advice?

    I have a project coming up and I am thinking of using TSF-45 for a stucco or knock down kind of finish. Any tips would be great. I was wondering if a hopper gun would be best or just mitt it on and sponge/ roll for desired effect. I am trying to get kind of that Peachtree look onto signfoam...

  8. Optically Clear Laminate for Window Perf?

    As someone else pointed out, 8518 is a no go. Curvalam works good.
  9. Optically Clear Laminate for Window Perf?

    We use the clear mostly on vehicles. Store fronts, not so much. On vehicles, it lets you see out when its raining. If not then the holes fill up and you can't see out at all.

  13. Warped/Bending GatorFoam

    So it wasn't Gatorfoam brand? What is Gatorboard? Is it the same as Gatorfoam? We use a lot of Gatorfoam here and sometimes foam core for short term use.

    I have always used RTV 6708 on plastics like pads. Never had a failure, but it's about $23 a tube. Cures pretty fast too.
  17. On the way home last night................................

    It's not too common to see them here. We are 2 blocks from the city center area. But there was woods around the Jefferson Laboratory up until recently. Must have scared them out. This area had a bad Feral cat problem here a few years ago. I would come to the shop on a weekend and they would be...

    I spoted one of these guys the other day running by neighbors shop, I've seen 3 since then. They are currently ripping wooded sections out nearby for Lidl store, near the Jefferson Labs.
  19. Need some insite on sandblasting wood

    I agree with Gino on the steel frame. My experience is that steel frames cause more damage in the long run. I think it's probably due to the different rates of expansion.
