is concrete wall wrap vinyl an option? stuff sticks great, no drilling required.

hate to nitpick, but i think its too low now. actually i lied... i LOVE to nitpick other people's work.

simple replacement. at those dimensions you can go with polycarb or acrylic. reference above to subtracting 1/4" from horizontal/vertical dimensions isn't so much for expansion but rather for the actual fit of the plastic.... as the frame itself is up to 1/8" thick material, so the insert...

well, then hopefully the OP will keep this thread updated with the results... because I believe you're giving the OP false hope, given the information provided.

specs are one thing, and can be tweaked to cover the intent, or adjusted along the way for approved upcharges, but missing items & quantities are another.... and the bids are almost always on the package, not just a few items on the list you decide to pick/choose. if you don't make it in-house...

regarding the address lettering, if there were no specs for it then write up a quote for vinyl lettering & 1hr install for them to consider credit.... maybe even provide an additional quote with a +$$$ uptick for painted dimensional lettering that you could flip in a pinch to make it the right...

had this happen a few times. gotta suck it up and make it right. Had a project for a new university dormatory, and was mind-boggled at how many signs a salesman had missed in our quote. easily $5k worth of product buried in their architectural documents & overlooked... but we won the bid, and...

overthinking it, i believe. but if you're really worried then roll-on some killz latex to the backside of your letters prior to install day.

its a TRAP! doubt there's sinister intent, but literature is posturing to hang you on a new paint job if a lotta things don't go right.

+1 perf cut. tangle/feed issues aside, through-cutting will break-down the cutting strip on your plotter really really fast.

I've never installed wallpaper over old wallpaper... recipe for disaster.

spoiler alert, hotels in the midwest are $100/night. roach motels are closer to $50, or $15/hr.

the machine will run with the old head rank id numbers, but the purpose of them is to fine-tune their function as tested by the manufacturer. (i think) uncertain exactly of the downsides, but I've run a few new heads in my lifetime with old rank ids because I had accidentally installed them...

+1 IJ35 is calendared, and "garbage".....by the standards of 3M media. but its my go-to for flat signage that is only expected to last ~5yrs. still think this is a loaded question for a sign forum, and slightly unhelpful considering your supplier or media availability might be different than...

little giant/gorilla/etc. ladders & scaffold plank span'd between them

I've heard Primer94 helps, but only from posts on this forum with no follow-up so I can't reference/vouch for its longevity. I assume it would work as a chemical-version of corona-treating (flaming) a surface, but that stuff can be a mess to brush/dab.

its been hashed out here before, a few times, powder coat needs to be treated like a LSE plastic. Arlon DPF8000 would be my recommendation. edited to add the description of powder coating, if anyone is interested in the what&why

you're gonna damage the building either way: simply tape & silicone to building, or drilling holes for mounting hardware. got a pic to work with, or maybe additional details like brick & mortar or aluminum siding or whatnot? otherwise, +1 MBS-standoffs for a great reference to the kind of...

multicolor screen printing is all about the setup. design software that allows you to work in layers is extremely helpful. youtubes available detailing the steps.
