  12. Before & After

    you made an improvement but these signs will always suck. there is absolutely no sense in listing every business on a sign within a centre, if you will. You cant read it and it is confusing. If they would make a sign that empasizes the title of the centre and play off that, I think that would...

  18. Printed Acrylic exterior Business Sign Plaque Question

    clear acrylic outside is not very good. you are actually making this small plaque to expensive and overthinking it. I would make it out of 1/4" aluminum with a digital print laminated on outside of it, BUT of course that would be expensive
  19. Need advice on install

    scuff the back of the sign, and use silicone. It will be there forever and it will not fall, of course this will take two trips to install as it will have to be duct taped to wall. I would place about 16 quarter sized "dots" on it and install it, you done need to glob it all over it
