You could try buying blanks and having them painted or powder coated locally. Or if it's a large enough order maybe you can source them with a cast white vinyl face.

I would doubt it...and they don't wear skates but it still probably wouldn't work. I would look at some suppliers of synthetic ice surfaces and see if they even offer graphics.

yep, officially confused. I took it to mean he was bonding .063 faces to 1" PVC with tape & silicone.

Use PVC, pick the appropriate thickness for the track

I'm amazed sometimes at what post & arm will hold. You say he will hang it, if that's the case it's his responsibilty to make sure it will handle it. That probably originally held a wood sign, or maybe even steel framed sheet metal. I would use 3/4" MDO, it should be heavy so its doesn't flop...

I'd run it by the client, but knowing how these signs are used, and that it's a rush, probably to meet an inspection deadline I think they will accept them as is

I remember the Danas name, they made screen ink?

I will try a quart of the Clearshield.

I have the UV cart, scratch guard cart...but they don't give the same finish as the liquid. Plus I don't want to use up my printhead applying clear

No Edge users out there using liquid clears?

Customer specs, and lettered with cast vinyl. This is a small job, but could lead to more. Most of our jobs are small custom orders and usually .080 with Engineer grade is fine.

We love our Gerber Edge and have used Frog Juice since it first became available to finish them It not only gives some UV protection it also "popped" the colors nicely and gave a nice gloss. But now they have been sold and I am not happy with the new version, something changed. It's much harder...

Follow up...Vulcan's prices and turnaround are very reasonable. They may become my new go to for these jobs. Thanks

and if it's for a stage be prepared to supply fire rating documentation

I just say..."Thank you sir, may I have another"

These are what you want along with some resin bond to mount them to the letters. There are ways to make them yourself but sure is easier to buy them https://www.nglantz.com/67634/Category/Letter-Mounting-Accessories I would tell the company you bought the letters from to overnight the mounts.

You say it will have spacers, so can you use pre tapped acrylic mounting blocks? You should be able to get them in a day. Is mounting with tape an option? That would be east to fix, glue or tape spacers to the back and put tape on them. Whatever you do the paper template should work for...

I remember in sign school the lefty's were told they would have a tougher time with some of the work, especially working wet over wet, like outlines/shading and may need to use a mahlstick more than others (we were mostly using hand over hand). I'm a right, but shot left playing hockey. After I...

I used ITCSymbolStd-Bold to start with when copying something that looks like that. and if you are matching something exactly there's always the vectordoc

I agree, set it up as a large pole pocketed "billboard" banner.
