  1. Using Lexel For Acrylic Letters

    I have used banner tape in a pinch. But I think you should be fine if the letters are that small. You can also put painters tape on them so they stay put till installed.
  2. Using Lexel For Acrylic Letters

    I would think so, maybe Moze will chime in, he's the Lexel man.
  3. Using Lexel For Acrylic Letters

    Lexel takes longer than an hour to cure, probably more like 24 hours. Which is why I usually use it in combination with some VHB tape.

  8. Suggestions Emerging from my Time Capsule: What are the substrates of choice these days?

  11. Opinion What would you say...?

    If you want to make money installing some other local competitors wraps, then yea. It's not the same as installing corporate branding, which isn't local competition. I have had some offers like that and I just say I'm not interested, good luck.

  19. 12 Or 14ft Overhead Door?

    Always get the biggest you can. We have a 14' door and if it's on the road we can fit it in the bay. But the bay is also big enough for a 53' trailer. Some shorter equipment can get pretty tall, like garbage trucks.
