  1. Ripping Off Trademark Names

    We have the similar here, I can register a sign shop business name in my state regardless of who has that name in any other state in this country as long as its not trademarked, how many sign shops are going to trademark their name. As for trademarks, only recognized in half the counties in...
  2. Conflicting Advice to Newbies

    I think most of you are missing Speedsters point, its not should he hire an apprentice, he's referring to the newbies starting their own business and the advice given by members to go work for a existing sign shop and learn the trade.

  3. Oxidised surfaces

    Have to agree with OldPaint, after working in a panel shop the last thing I would rub over someones car is thinners. When I get a vehicle in with dull paintwork I tell them to get the paint cut at a panel shop or I charge them to buff it,,,,no chemicals.

  5. Dell doesn't allow customization anymore?

    The 1GB AMD RADEON HD 6450 series Video cards that Dell has as an option all support multiple monitors, I think there are few that don't these days. http://www.amd.com/us/products/desktop/graphics/amd-radeon-hd-6000/hd-6450/pages/amd-radeon-hd-6450-overview.aspx#2 As a side note, its...

  7. Vinyl on Tent

    Banner vinyl and for the amount of time those things last before they blow down/away I have used normal vinyl (Avery700) which has lasted fine. Clean the area well first, then stick on a test piece and give it a light heat with heat gun, wait for it to cool and then try and remove it, you'll...

  9. New Website & Shameless Self Promotion

    On the ADA page you have ... No minimum order and we no not charge a set-up fee. Don't particularly like the narrow writing column, only seems to have about 4 words per line.
  10. Removing Vinyl with Scraper Blades

    I had a job of signing both doors on a truck that as soon as I saw the paint work, I told the owner it was up to him to remove the old vinyl, as the paint job was just a blow over. I suggested the usual methods and he rang me next day to come and have a look as the vinyl was peeling the paint...
  11. Roland GX-24 Camm-1

    I have had my GX24 for about 4-5 years now and have not had a problem, yep NOT one, but then I take the time to set mine up properly. I adjust my blade perfectly and that's how the cuts turn out, yet to replace the cutting strip, still hardly marked. I not only cut all my own sign vinyl, but...
  12. Complete cuts

    Check your blade "offset" or has Versa works got an overcut function?
  13. Why is my GX24 cutting like this?

    These things could cause that 1. Blade sticking out to far,you should be able to run your finger over the end of the holder and "just" feel the tip of the blade. 2. Cutting strip all chopped up, usually you can test this by cutting a scrap on the other side of the cutter where it's used less. 3...
  14. STripe Kit for Holden VE

    The Genuine kits actually not real dear to buy (not as cheap as making them). Damn, I had to replace the bonnet ones on a ute and had the rest left over, was going to keep them but gave them away or you could have had them. The ute hard cover stripes are a PITA to get right because of the humps...

  17. Bad Logo Help

    Do the job, get paid, move on. Japanese Maples are nearly always red to burgundy colour.
  18. Pub Logo

    You always do amazing work but can I say when I looked at the picture before reading your post, the first thought was "whats a PU13" as Pat said. Will the public pick up on it when it isn't explained, not sure if it needs 2 thirteens.
  19. bar logo - help

    I think Ricks looks to be a good start. I know this isn't very good, but I already done it.
  20. Storefronts - Interior or Exterior?

    I think it depends on what colors the client wants to use, darker color designs stuck outside and bright colored designs inside. Most of my customers want it inside so kids can't pick at it unless it's up high enough they can't reach.
