100% cleanup is unnecessary if our intent is to just gob new silione back over it in its place. I just whack it off as smooth as i can, and then embed my rough-cut vinyl halfway into the new layer of silicone. Otherwise, its a concern/cost I address with the client and majority of the time...

facebook marketplace, etsy, or pinterest if you're gonna try to put yourself out there. craigslist, however, is garbage unless you want to hire cash labor or buy/sell stolen merch.

perforated and 2 way mirror operates on the same premise, requiring exterior light to reflect off its surface and distract from viewing-thru. If you have lights on in the intended non-visible side of the glass, then you negate this effect. you may be able to do perforated on both sides of the...

Currently we design on Mac, and run onyx on a seperate PC, as well. Files are saved on our network, and readily accessible from either computer. if you wish to control your RIP, that runs on a PC, from your Mac... RemoteDesktop or TeamViewer are easy solutions.

nahhh, i got you. I just hijack'd it on his behalf :)

we're all able, but I believe the smallest rebar-cutting masonry bit is like ....3/8". I just puked a little just thinking about that hole pattern on 3" lettering.

silicone to paint? gosh, i've only had issues with vinyl to paint that's still outgassing. I think with tape&silicone there's room to outgass-around as opposed to fully-sheeting a "wet" wall with a full-field mural. The wall should be dry enough to tape up your mounting pattern anyways, so...

the white may be more prevalent, but STOP and DNE signage reads just fine already. personally, I hate the idea of non-DOT reflective signage... clients think they're getting "illumination" or "better visibility" but it really only "lights up" if you're driving right-at the sign.

my tin-foil-hat gleams bright some days :) as a Lithuanian, I'm well aware of the history of Russian annexation/occupation.... to absorb a country, the key to success is optics. 1000yr old country, almost erased from history under the guise of "protection from the Germans", as they spent...

does rebar come all the way to the surface? i just keep a klein's handy on stud letter installs in event of studs/power/etc. and just clip em down as needed to let that one or a few studs only go into the wall <1/2". small letters on brick/masonry, if I can ONLY use tape/silicone.... I use 3M...

things keep going this bad in Mexico, and our demand for Limes/Avocados/Lithium keeps increasing ...i uh, erm, I mean, our empathy the hardships of the people therein, of course, do you think Annexation is the next play? ...or even part of the grand-scheme all along? (re:Ukraine)

have you done any tinkering inside the printer lately? have you noticed any degredation in your prints/nozzletests before this started? start from scratch: clean everything. always helps to have a good starting point and cleanliness is half of the battle. capping station/wiper/printheads...

A) no spec, or brand, or model, then no idea how to direct you. B) whomever you purchase your "signboards" from, most likely has that info for you C) +1 to hiring a subcontractor, if anything to manage your "team". Experienced hands on-site is much more helpful than crowdsourcing a forum with...

in that guy's defense, he may have been a subcontractor for that Mendards' construction ~20yrs ago....and not only had to settle in arbitration for a lesser-amount than contracted, BUT also accept 25% of the payment in store credit. (not made-up as a joke, that's literally how menard's builds...

my argument revolves around fullfilling requirements, retroreflectability being the main one. still using same series reflective that's been tested & approved for MUTCD, just a different series optically-clear overlam, so I don't see how this would affect anything....hardly "cheating", and...

still love contour-cut in certain applications, as opposed to full-field print....as you get to see the contrast between dead-matte wall and glossy/luster/satin graphics, kind of a cool visual effect. that being said, I'd test a letter first.... Not knowing the wall, but the fact that you're...

i'd think you'd want opaque anyways, or at least barely trans., else lighting would cause you to see the shadow of the framework through the material.

yeah, $1.50 psf base price from Gco. I'm sure they have wiggle room for a client to haggle, esp if that's a regular order item, but today if I were to buy it its 920/roll. still, there's a difference between can't, won't, and very much possible. I don't see any verbiage in MUTCD that negates...

that would be in the semi-rigid film category, either PVC, PET, polyester, in the 8mil+ range. Polycarb is even available at .030" (...40mil?), possibly thinner, that you could roll it up "easily". Secure it with velcro or dbl. sided tape. ezpz.

it was my understanding that reflectability and pms color were the requirements, for which the reflective material and printer meet.... but I don't see anywhere that another optically-clear cast overlaminate wouldn't satisfy minimum retroreflectability requirements. 8914 would have been the...
