  1. Canopy lettering help

    IF you were going to put a letter on it I would use a flat crylic with a couple of small drops of silicone, and yes that will hold it. last thing you need to do is punch holes thru this thing. The other method is more expensive is to have an awning shop heat transfer down 3m vinyl with the...

  4. Standing my ground....

    if I would have gotten this email i would have done a layout and submitted it.

  9. lettering on an old awning

    I do tons of awnings and this one sound like vinyl. I would take it down clean the hell out of it and then spray it with semigloss or satin acrylic latex.
