Like they said, the sales/manufactures reps are a good source, combined with online research. It does take a while to get a feel for what works best in different situations and often there isn't only one good solution. That being said, we are also in a time of constant new and improved products...
I'm not sure about that framing detail. I did a quick search for similar shapes and they all seem to have a peak as part of the structure. And I agree, with all the detail in the frame I hope the sign shape and details are similar
Are they on blocks or threaded directly into letters? If they are flay we trace them (or plot a pattern) and dab the hole with a paint marker and lay in place and push.
If they are blocks we use the shorty stud method.
Varies according to the item. Like a bag of concrete is cheap, but we have to spend the time to pick it up. Something that gets delivered to our shop by a vendor doesn't have any added cost. And more expensive an items can be way more profitable with a smaller percentage mark up.
ACM would be OK for this application. You will have to sand the edges after cutting, and if they drop it, it won't break. I would use 1/2" gatorfoam for tradeshow signs a lot. It's light and strong, but can be broken of mishandled.
Like the storefront, hate the sign (and name). Looking at their website they have a ton of experience in garments & wraps. They have no signs in their portfolio
yep what they said....it's one thing to do a one off for a customer, that usually can be gotten away with, but to be out there marketing on the web you will probably get caught. and depending on who catches you it could put you out of business and worse.
I have done a few. I used reverse edge print on matte lexan for one.
Printed decals with clear for another.
Of your options I think print on wrap vinyl and matte lam (applied to a painted surface) is a good and simple choice
Depends on the budget. If the current sign is in good condition I would clean, paint frame if needed and reface with ACM or just apply a print over it.
