  1. Applying aluminum sign to side of large garbage type truck

    First he was installing, now I am LOL I still don't know exactly what it looks like as he won't get it for 2 more weeks. A couple of you are talking about angle iron and frames. Is this what you mean? Also, I don't have a rivet gun, I would prefer not to buy one if I can get away with these...
  2. Adhering 4 mm Coroplast to large glass windows ?

    Re-reading this. If you use some kind of a caulk, I would be worried about it sliding off while you wait for it to dry. Maybe a combo of some kind of tape and liquid nails? The tape could hold it in place in the corners while the liquid nails dries. The caulk option would be cheaper than all the...
  3. Applying aluminum sign to side of large garbage type truck

    I have a customer that is bought a new truck that has somewhat of a dumpster on the back. Not sure what you call it...a garbage truck maybe? Anyway, it has large ribs and it's black. He wants to use 2 sheets of 4x8 aluminum on each side. I will apply the vinyl, simple graphics and he will...
  4. Vinyl with strong glue!

    Make sure you tell them what you are applying it to, not all vinyl sticks well to all plastics
  5. Happy Thanksgiving Yall

    Yes! My mom has the same book!
  6. Client Application Form

    I think most people call this a "Vendor Form". Pretty much the info you have to use to set up your invoice and you can add things. A fillable form or a PDF fillable form on your website with a submit button might be most convenient for you and them. You can keep it on a hidden page and just...
  7. Vinyl with strong glue!

    Convex - I once called them and they are very helpful! They sent me some samples before I bought an entire roll. It looks like they sell it in the Netherlands...not sure if that helps you or not? https://www.convexvinyl.com/
  8. Adhering 4 mm Coroplast to large glass windows ?

    If you have your mind made up with using coroplast then perhaps a double sided clear VHB adhesive tape would work. the come in rolls like this...I've used both 3M and Oracal. I've also used double sided carpet tape for various projects - it's clear and cheaper! You could run it on all 4 sides...
  9. Question Is It Just Me or...?

    I don't feel a real need to use correct grammer/spelling on this forum. To me, I'm talking to my friends so that's how I type. There is a guy in town who dabbles in vinyl graphics and t-shirts. He is very nice but he cannot talk, spell, type...it's very bad. He tried hard to get his business...
  10. This font is horrible my brain hurts

    Although I don't use CNN for news, I do enjoy some these artsy-fartsy articles but the font they use is driving me to drink. It's like my brain keeps stopping every millisecond, and then go, stop, go, stop. Is there something I'm missing about this font? I can only see using this for a one or...
  11. Lawn Care Logo Help

    I don't know where Rick is, he seems like a nice guy. I do like the idea of adding the shirt in there, maybe in the final design stage...since I sell shirts also.
  12. Lettering on Chrome Color Selection

    Update. I talked to him an suggested that we use a white outline, maybe with a little shadow so it shows up nice. I explained the above with how chrome looks. He said, "I never heard of that, that makes no sense, I have it on my other truck and it looks great." I told him as long as he's happy...

  14. Lettering on Chrome Color Selection

    OK, this is very helpful! I also hate chrome and for these reasons...59 people looked before anyone commented...I guess I'm not the only one who is troubled by this. I'll try and figure something out, maybe run it past you again for final comment. Thank you!

  16. Costing Spreadsheet

    Yes, I do consider spreadsheets fun! Thanks for the updates guys, always looking to update my spreadsheets!
  17. Lettering on Chrome Color Selection

    I hate to ask such a stupid question but I find chrome difficult to letter on because it can look light or dark and in-between. Customer has chrome rocker panels. His colors/font are 3M dark green and English Vivace font. Is there a rule of thumb for colors on chrome? Do you think I will need...
  18. What should I do?

    I'm excited for an update on this! Monday??? It's so funny, the guy is probably completely normal and he's the subject of a "world wide sign-makers investigation" and has NO idea at all LMAO! I wonder how many of US are on some kind of forum for something we do that others might find odd? My...
  19. How to install large vinyl?

    OK, makes sense! I would cut and mask as one piece. Either add a vinyl line under the entire graphic or make a line with a pen. Then cut it apart into your 3 sections. I would tape all sections on using a center hinge. Stand back, make sure it looks good, measure again. I would start with the...
