  1. Install 4 x18 on brick wall

    So it will be installed in individual 4x8 panels flat on a wall? Depending on height ladders would be fine. But my concern would be the finished look of .063 screwed to a brick wall. I would try to talk the client into a sign on a 1x1 tube frame or at least use ACM.
  2. Do you ask, “How did you find us?”

    "turned left at Greenland"
  3. hand painting on raw concrete

    I would talk to the paint supplier/manufacturer to find out if there is a clear sealer-primer they recommend. Taping may work for the stripe, especially if you can apply a clear first. You can pull sections as you paint and touch up the edges. Can't expect perfection on concrete anyhow.
  4. Question Vehicle Graphics

    Yep, you have to eye it up. Sometimes you can design to work with the angles, or at least negate them
  5. This year's card

    Ole peg leg Crosby. Tough to find a decent resolution for this image.
  6. Sans serif search with cr*ppy image

    Thanks Adam!
  7. This year's card

    Thought I'd use a classic image of the old sign hanger Bing....seems appropriate considering all the New Yorkers fleeing to "rural" Connecticut
  8. Sans serif search with cr*ppy image

  9. Wooden sign pole AND cabinet

  10. Suggestions buggy or trolley to carry tools and material

The one that gets a lot of use for vinyl jobs is what we call the "granny cart" the folding wire grocery cart. Fits a lot of tools and rolls/boxes upright and when you get to a stair one guy...
  11. Need Help Getting started with HVLP Spray and 8 Gal. Portable Tank

    Look up the manufacturers specs for your gun. I'm no expert but unless it's an airbrush i think you are out of luck
  12. Favorite Movies

    and Tom Hanks tribute to the genre
  13. How to handle previous owner's mistakes

    I agree, explain that the previous owner may have used the incorrect material and that it should normally last X amount of time. Then prorate the replacement.
  14. Question Insurance payout after fire

    A friends shop had a fire in the unit next to it, no fire or water damage but the unit was filled with smoke. Like Canuck said, the techs all said anything that got touched by the smoke was damaged beyond repair. That included viny/laminatel rolls
  15. Formula 1

    I follow it and that Bahrain race was wild, haven't seen a crash like that in years. Was amazing to see him rise out of those flames. I do find F1 boring at times, prefer things like Blancpain GT, British Touring Cars, IMSA
  16. Bidding on Projects

    I will try to get them to find samples of what they are looking for...they are all over the internet. I hate these types of jobs because you never end up bidding apples to apples.
