    I know it's insane! WTF can you do :frustrated: What i charge for 4x8 full color MDO is less than what you charge for your 4x8 coro. And still ... This week a long time customer of mine has gone elsewhere because they got a cheaper price for MDO than what i quoted them! The only reason i am...
  3. OMG, How Do I Compete?

    We have some shops selling 4'x8's to real estate agents for 75.00$ Yes they are produced on a flatbed. That is what they call agent specials. Standard prices for a printed 4x8 on 4mil coro goes for 160.00$ around here. I am starting to think that these UV inks are making people stupid. I'm more...

  8. Rookie signmaker, or customer directed?

    I like Andy's take on it. I myself would not have lettered that van like it is ... but probably would've tried to sell him a wrap with all that crap as background "fodder" (<- is that the right term?). I definately would not have done the words in black .. more like a light grey. I would have...

  15. CLEAR SHIELD experience

    Gotta disagree with you guys. I have signs outside that have been coated with Clearshield and its been around 6-7 years now and the prints still look pretty good. And the only reason they are starting to look old is the ink is fading away ... Nothing has hapened to the surface texture that would...
  16. CLEAR SHIELD experience

    When it dries it's like a plastic ... I would "assume" it would also expand and contract with the wood quite well. I have used it lots on large prints and i have never seen it crack.
  17. CLEAR SHIELD experience

    I have a friend who does hand carved signs and gold leaf and he started using Clear Shield a few years ago after i started bringing him prints that were clear coated with the stuff. He said it worked beautifull and i remember seeing one sign he did with mahogany that was clearcoated with Clear...
