  1. Problem.....WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS?

    Joe....or anyone that thinks this is an "ice" problem....have any pictures you could post for comparison? I have never personally seen this happen.....at least not on a job a year old. Further more, I haven't seen or heard of a problem with any other van in the area this winter. This guy has...
  2. Problem.....WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS?

    Anything is possible.......but I don't think cleaning (or wax removal) was the cause. 2 reasons.... 1) the adhesive is still there 2) she has OCD when it comes to prep. The vinyl was a new roll, and the excavating & equipment was one apply (23" tall off a 24" roll), so why not the bottom row...
  3. Problem.....WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS?

    A couple points you made..... That was the first thing my wife said. I'd have to reject that possibility, only because you can see the adhesive left behind, where the vinyl is chipped away. Perhaps he is a sleep walker, and was picking without knowing he was doing it? :Big Laugh
  4. Problem.....WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS?

    My wife lettered this van almost a year ago. The customer called the other day, and told her the lettering was "Falling Off". Naturally, she is going to take care of the problem. When she went to look at the van, this is what she found. After viewing the pictures, I formed 2 possibilities...
  5. F-550 with Altec AT37-G

    Sold Truck is sold. Got the 14 I was asking (which was a steal). Darn truck has great reach for a 550. She will be missed...... but onto bigger and better things.
  6. For those of us with bucket trucks....

    ive owned a few, and have had excellent luck. What kinds of trucks/problems have you encountered?
  7. Large lit sign

    Any suggestions???? Really? My first thought was to suggest you call a "sign" company. To put this into perspective for you....what if someone posted a thread, such as this. I have a customer who wants a "knock Your Socks Off" logo.......any suggestions? How would you begin to answer that...
  8. Removing reflective from aluminum street signs

    The vinyl zapper is NOT the tool for this job!!! It would take forever and the cost of the wheels used on each, would be more than the aluminum.
  9. New Logo

    AGREE. Looks like the little kid from Home Alone
  10. New Logo

    LOL good a reason as any :thumb:
  11. Removing reflective from aluminum street signs

    Coincidentally, I had asked this question to a national supplier (all they do is street signs) many years ago. At that time, they said they USED to strip them, but had given that up a few years before that. Now they sell them to recyclers who strip the vinyl and scrap the aluminum. They said...
  12. New Website

    It may be a little busy, but all the services you offer (tabs...whatever you call em) are easy to spot, and I didn't have to "hunt" to find anything......so......I think the "busy" is just fine and a matter of taste. All in all, I think its great. Considering all the services you offer on the...
  13. How can I stretch out banner better?

    is that banner cut to fit inside of the black frame? You didn't remove the frame to install the banner did you? Edit: After looking at your picture again, I think you can easily get the wrinkles out on top......but the bottom looks like most of the wrinkles are caused by the seam job. (but...
  14. Sq Ft Charges

    Not giving anyone a hard time....Perhaps just a little insight as to why he may not have gotten the most cheery and helpful response. Many have a distaste for posting pricing in the open forum. "Sales, Marketing & Pricing" would have led to more helpful posts, and less snarky ones. my 2 cents.
  15. Sq Ft Charges

    So nice of you to notice :smile: .......of course, your not the first to tell me that :rolleyes:
  16. Attention Oldies...

    Thats the most interesting, and thought provoking thing I have ever read on here. hmmmmm..... (thats my "thought provoking" sound I make now that I'm getting older) LMAO Let me guess..... do you find yourself making involuntary sounds throughout the day.....like "hmmmm" ?
  17. F-550 with Altec AT37-G

    I was asked by a couple to show more pictures. Here ya go. (specifically the seats and controls.....& yes it does have hydraulic tool hookup) Seems a common question is..... Can you stop and start the truck from the basket? The answer is yes. I've included a picture of the employees on...
  18. howzit? ...thought I'd post a sign I installed today

    is the stone work yours also? I'm not "feelin" that sign at all. Do you have any better pictures of the finish technique you used? No offense (probably not possible) but my first thought was....perhaps that was the old sign you replaced.....and not because the "antiqued" look is that...
  19. a "SIGN" spring is coming

    I watched that on the news last night. They were recapping the situation, and debating whether the local officials should prepared a little better (ahhh yeah). So you were one of those wiping the shelves of milk and bread? Hope you didn't forget the eggs and syrup.
  20. a "SIGN" spring is coming

    It was -20* F (yes, below 0) yesterday morning. Today at 5am, it was -14* What a difference that 6* made. :rolleyes:
