If you are using professional spray equipment, this stuff makes a good looking chrome finish: https://spectrachrome.com/ This company has spray, spraycan, and even brush on chrome paint. I've never used or seen it used in person though. https://alsacorp.com/easy-chrome/

New Jersey does have additional regulations about commercial vehicles and lettering. Google it.

Most issues will be with municipalities or homeowners associations. We have one in our area that doesn't allow even a commercial vehicle to be parked outside with advertising on it. So, for example, if you are an electrician and your service truck is lettered, you cannot park it in your own...

The laws for handicap parking signs are federal, and are in the ADA. Here's a fact sheet about handicap parking ADA compliance: https://adata.org/factsheet/parking There is no letter size requirement there, but the general ADA rule on lettering signs is contrasting colors, plain block letters...

According to F150 enthusiast forums, this has been a common problem since 2015 or possibly earlier. There are two solutions which users post, both of which seem to work. 1. After cleaning off adhesive the normal way, leave it outside for several days and the yellowing fades away. 2. "I have an...

I'm still trying to figure out what FCO means.

I'd say the problem lies in the manufacturer's description on their website. A 2 year outdoor lifespan. It's designed for very temporary use. It also comes with a removable adhesive, which I find basically means no real adhesive. I've had removable adhesives fail in less than a year even in...

That's just poorly autotraced Impact, stretched and slanted.

I don't think no banding with latex is true. You should see my competitors' signs done on latex (though the ones that use old Rolands are even worse) With the Epson, the red ink and orange ink still isn't listed as having the outdoor durability that the CMYKLcLm have. I use an S70670, and what...

The improvement isn't so much in the prints, though they are sharper/clearer/brighter than 10 years ago, but in the solvents. 10 years ago you couldn't stand to be in the same room with the printer more than 5 minutes. Now it's no problem. Also the ink dries much faster now. Most of my...

I buy the 18x24 and 24x36 sizes 5 at a time and stock them. Don't see why you couldn't do the same with the oddball size. If you have them you can sell them. If you don't, you'll never offer them. Not sure what the per piece price is on 5 of them, but it's probably around $20-25. The price from...

Might be a piece of lint stuck on the edge or a printhead. Collects ink mist in heavy ink areas, then brushes it onto the print.

Considering that this type of art is typically drawn in chalk, I guess paper that people tear up and take with them is about as durable.

I don't have a DTG, but I've never gotten a DTG shirt from any vendor that I was happy with. I've been embarrassed to hand them over the counter to my customers. When I go to trade shows the vendors hand out beautiful DTG t-shirts for teddy bears as samples, but I have yet to find a vendor that...

Thicker material will accentuate the problem. Thicker edge for the water to grab. Vinyl lettering has to be washed with the wand held away from the surface, and straight down on the surface (i.e. at right angles to). It's a washing technique-dependent problem, not a material problem. If the high...

Forgetting all the unicorn rainbows and solid financial advice being tossed back and forth, and going to the actual question you asked in the beginning, "What would you pay for this," here's what I think. This business is being run by a couple who are doing it like the ones I first went to work...

Old Block from Letterhead Fonts

Just buy the 5 from Bull Steel and keep the other 4 in inventory. Add this size to what you offer realtors.

You can get one from Amazon for $55 with "free shipping". It comes from buildasign.com, and they list it for $38.55 not including shipping.
