  1. Vinyl lettering on soft side trailer

    That's what I'm afraid of, and if it requires hand painting with vinyl ink, I don't need the headache (literally). I'm getting a sample of the material to test.
  2. Vinyl lettering on soft side trailer

    I have a client buying one of these (see pic) Looks like they digital print the whole thing, but my client wants us to do the same vinyl lettering we do on their hard side trailers. Years ago I did some that rolled up but these are whole different thing. Anyone ever dealt with one of these...
  3. Sign on a Hanger - Painted or Digital??

    Is it corrugated metal or standing seam siding? As I said "I would build a aluminum tube frame, face it with ACM, and add a nice bent .040 frame around the edge. At that size I'd build in a couple pieces and assemble on site." The graphics can be applied in any way you like
  4. Sign on a Hanger - Painted or Digital??

    A hanger, like an airplane hanger? I would build a aluminum tube frame, face it with ACM, and add a nice bent .040 frame around the edge. At that size I'd build in a couple pieces and assemble on site.
  5. Best board for 8'x16' metal frame?

    If the customer could be talked into doing it right I would add the vertical supports and do it as two faces instead of one double side face. But I can almost guarantee that wouldn't happen. Just look at the shape the old panels were in before they fell down.
  6. Best board for 8'x16' metal frame?

    Is there a flange to fasten to? I can't tell how it works from the photo. In any case I'd use 6mm ACM or 1/4" Alumalite with some type of batten
  7. Need Help Pole Banners Ripping

    First, banner fail in high winds, especially solid banners. You could try mesh, but personally I don't like the way they look, especially double sided. They need horizontal poles top & bottom. Then the banner should be secured to the vertical pole/or pole bracket top & bottom Also put a piece of...
  8. Best board for 8'x16' metal frame?

    Double sided? How are the panels fastened at the edge?
  9. Simple Sign Critique - too simple?

    I like what Brad did, though I think where and when are equally important and the date gets a little lost. I also totally agree about the $ sign, I always downsize it.
  10. Conformable reflective

    Which 3M did you use Strickly?
  11. Conformable reflective

    I have a client that wants black reflective on their food truck. We work with reflective a lot, but this will be the first time I've had to go over any rivets. So I was going to try 3M 5100 conformable reflective. Has anyone used it successfully over rivets? Thanks
  12. Question Custom Shaped Coroplast cut on graphtec?

    Yep, for a one off job just apply pattern or vinyl & cut.
  13. Small Engine Turn Gold vinyl.... why so hard to find?

    The only fake one I like is R Tape's Vinyl Efx, Gold, 1/4" Small Engine Turn (15" x 10yd) - nepcosignsupply.com
  14. Rose parade signs

    Looks great
  15. Shop truck critique

    I think player is implying that the new design looks like a vinyl lettered truck, it doesn't emphasize the "wrap" aspect, though that may just be from viewing as design thumbnail. I like the nice clean look and the blue. But if you want to sell "wraps" you may want to up the ante and go for a...
  16. Suggestions Setting up a large format printing facility in Huntington NY

    Similar to Bigfish, is it to support an existing base or to grow a new business? Because boy are you moving into a saturated market...
  17. Reflective Paint? Reflective text?

    I agree, we can't be responsible for handling. Providing a sleeve for storage and a big warning label on the back is the best you can do.
  18. Turnbuckle failure after 7 months.

    I agree about the eye bolt style being the problem. But I would think having wind load specs and using a piece of hardware that is supposed to handle that spec should work, no matter the style. Of course I always like to step it up on any hardware.
  19. Where to purchase weighted stands

    There are suppliers for municipal and institutional clients that carry some very nice options. Octagon Sign Bases | Bollard Company.
  20. Three sided Sign Referal

    We would make that with three pieces of pvc with three pieces of "triangle" molding from Outwater Plastics.
