  1. Silicone recommendation for dimensional letters with stud/spacer

    Inside just about any silicone would work
  2. Suggestions Diamond Plate Vinyl

    These are some good options above, but my concern would be legibility. Anything using a full shiny diamond plate background is going to be hard to read. So using it for the letters with a contrasting outline, or just using it as a border or accent would be my suggestion to the customer. The...
  3. Mounting ACM panels (dibond) to an uneven wall

    Foam tape on the high spots and lexel.
  4. Big magnets

    Nope, I'll make it if they insist but they will sign off on the design that has my disclaimer on it.
  5. Need Help ProEdge Systems Out of Business? Anything else available?

    They're out of business because of UPS? They never heard of Fedex?
  6. Attracting Customers with Limited Portfolio.

    Nothing wrong with using concept drawings for a portfolio till you get real jobs.
  7. Suggestions Vehicle Vinyl Removal Issue

    yep, if the vinyl was on there a while it's a good ghost. I'll try buffing with polish compound, but it's risky, especially on dark colors. You end up needing to do the whole door, then the fender looks noticeably duller....
  8. Need Help vinyl sign banner/felt

    You want an 8oz-13oz scrim vinyl. Like bannertime said, the printable versions work with vinyl, but I would think you'd be paying a premium price. Any vinyl you can use on a sign is OK, but generally banners are temporary so a cheaper vinyl is OK. Also they are called grommets, not rivets.
  9. Need Help vinyl sign banner/felt

    That is going to be tough to find nowadays. You may want to try a "canvas" fabricator that does awnings, boat covers etc. But you have to be sure the material is compatible with vinyl lettering. They used to make a liquid clear coat to make non compatible vinyl banners work with vinyl. You...
  10. Cut vinyl prices peeling after 1 month

    Sign looks dirty, should be cleaned right before application. Looks like it didn't stick.
  11. Interior vs Exterior Window Perf

    I learned the hard way. Some perf films are better for this than others. Our solution, though not as satisfactory as I would have liked, was to put really dark tint on the private side.
  12. Question PVC or Aluminum sign blank and how to prime

    Hooks & Lattice is a very reputable supplier, so I would trust them to use the correct PVC for an exterior sign. And I would use at least 1/2" thick
  13. Banners on pylon sign

    I'd just go with your original idea and have webbing in the hems.
  14. Which Type Glue?

    Single face sign? Screw from the back with some lexel for good measure. As has been said, best to leave unpainted when gluing.
  15. New Guy hi all from Ire

    Welcome! Where in Ireland are you? Can't help you with the Roland, but you should post the question in the section for Hardware/Rolands you'll get more response
  16. Need Help need help engineering concrete needed for sign installation

    "Should be obvious why cities have engineers - we get big winds here and all hell breaks loose with signs flying away and walls falling... since the majority of sign people seem to only be printing stickers, thank goodness for engineers and codes... My point was the city engineers don't actually...
  17. Wood lightbox – ever seen this before?

    I made one out of wood to display a piece of stained glass...inside. Don't know why anyone would build an exterior box like that. It looks like it was actually well done, so weird.
  18. Looking for a supplier for lighted sign cabinets

  19. Question Cast Laminate on Wood?

    Personally I wouldn't want laminate on my wood table...I'd use a good furniture sealer/ wax to protect it.
  20. Need Help Gold Leaf Foil

    Really hard to tell from photos, but the T looks like either a "fake" gold or even a printed gold effect. The A looks more like Signgold. But as has been said you need swatches from the various suppliers to compare. And those won't help with real gilding or printed fakes.
