Agree, way too cheap

I was being facetious.... An .040 aluminum panel screwed to a wall generally looks cheap, all wavy and pocked where fastened. I would do a 3mm ACM on an aluminum tube frame and clips to fasten, add a nice raised border to make it look even better.

I was just considering switching to Square. Isn't that still cheaper than a lot of others? And no terminals to deal with.

.040 screwed to wall? Why not a banner?

Standoffs?

I have had no problems with either the z6100 or z6200.

If that is your only machine I would seriously consider getting a newer (used or refurb) model. Parts are getting harder to find and the problems start getting closer together. I know, I used up three 5000 series HPs and even though I got proficient at repairing them I found I made more money...

I use the same materials in my z6100/6200 as I used in my 5000/5500

I know I wouldn't try it. I'd buy a used/refurb first.

We replaced our 5000/5500s with HP z6100 and z6200. Both are very similar to the 5000s and have take up reels. You can find them as refurbs with warranties or go with whatever the latest version of the z series is. You may also consider the HP latex printers, much more versatile.

Translucent paint is not that easy to get right, especially without a lightbox to spray on. I wouldv'e started with new faces to begin with. But it sounds like it may be simple enough to sheet the background with translucent vinyl, then cut out the letters and drop them in (with a little trap)...

Yep, I'd want something that big to have some serious fasteners, preferably lots of bearing surface on the wall and thru bolts with interior plates. When we build shaped signs like that with dibond faces we often use HDU cut offs to make the edge solid. If you've got good metalworking...

If the posts need a more finished look we use some type of post wrap/ cover either store bought or shop made

It was that hard to remove with a razor scraper?

We still use ours.

I've had "temporary" coro signs last five years, last thing I worry about is how long coro will last.

Maybe it's not productions fault, maybe it's management/ownership having unrealistic expectations. " I get my *** chewed out every time something is wrong and there's ranting and raving about it, despite every other job and item going out perfect and in a timely manner.(We usually have 1...

Can you print a white basecoat first?

So race track owners are just as cheap as racers

and all of your bosses decisions/projects are 150% right, yea that's it.
