  1. Kid Proof

    That's probably true.
  2. Kid Proof

    We do a lot of signage in hospitals (including children's hospitals) and there's honestly only one surefire way to keep kids from messing up signs and graphics: put them out of reach. Is there a soffit above the desk you can mount to? If you want to keep what you have, maybe some stand offs...
  3. Mounting acrylic to brick wall options

    The disconnect is amazing. Gino, you're dumb, you're bad at English, you're a bully. End of story. I honestly wish you'd go away, because you are HANDS DOWN the most toxic member of this community. The problem is that you're too dumb to see it and you lack the self awareness to take a look in...
  4. Mounting acrylic to brick wall options

    Gino, ever notice how you tend to be the center of these spats on the forums? VERY RARELY is there any drama between anybody else. It's you and your little buddy constantly needling at people and trying to get under their skin. You're a bully, which is why I keep coming back. I don't tolerate...
  5. Mounting acrylic to brick wall options

    Clearly you care or you wouldn't keep posting, but you are seemingly incapable of any kind of self restraint. I'd like you to find a few examples of where I'm tooting my horn. I offer up suggestions based on what we do at our shop. I never say, "This is the only way! Anything else is wrong!"...
  6. Mounting acrylic to brick wall options

    I actually do work instead of spending 24/7 on the internet, Gino. You have a tentative grasp on either English or reality. Either way, you turn every thread into The Gino Show. "One of the main reasons we repair and replace signs" isn't the same as "we mainly repair and replace signs" and if...
  7. Mounting acrylic to brick wall options

    I didn't say our mainstay was replacing stolen and broken signs. I said ONE OF the main reasons we REPAIR and REPLACE existing signage is because it gets vandalized (or stolen). Second, I never said that we're repairing or replacing signs that we put up. Nice attempt at a dig though, Gino. As I...
  8. Mounting acrylic to brick wall options

    Vandalism is one of the main reasons we repair and replace signs. Second, people pulling signs off walls is one of the main reasons they come down. A properly installed sign doesn't just fall off a wall. 99% of the time one of our signs comes off the wall it's because someone made an effort to...
  9. Weight?

    50 yard roll? Depends on the manufacturer and thickness of the vinyl, but you're generally going to be in the 35 pound ballpark.
  10. Mounting acrylic to brick wall options

    Sure, I don't doubt that, but how big was the sign? What was it attached to? How much "glue" did they use? What kind of glue was it? That's like me saying, "Yeah, I was in a car and it wrecked, so nobody should drive cars." If you don't believe it, test it yourself. There's an acrylic sign on...
  11. Mounting acrylic to brick wall options

    That's your prerogative, but if you honestly think that construction adhesive and VHB won't hold a tiny piece of acrylic to a brick wall, I'm not sure what to you tell you.
  12. Mounting acrylic to brick wall options

    Is that the only type of brick wall that exists? You don't own a level? [Edit: I'd bet dollars to donuts it's going on a flat brick wall, probably in a school or university.] [Edit 2: Will stand offs look better? Yes. Is it the only solution, or even the most cost effective solution? No.]
  13. Mounting acrylic to brick wall options

    No, it won't. The right adhesive plus VHB will work just fine and last for years. Moze is right about silicone, but even silicone will work for interior installations. Lexel, PowerGrab, Gripfill, and most other construction adhesives will work just fine as long as they're rated for plastics and...
  14. TimToad & Gino

    Your wit is only matched by your artistic ability. Sorry for your luck, maybe you'll find something you can excel at someday!
  15. TimToad & Gino

    Where are the preceeding panels with the mouse talking out its rear?
  16. Hanging 2'x3' Corrugated Plastic Signs

    You can also get smooth coro now too.
  17. Press Operators, how much do you pay them?

    Did you try checking salary.com or GlassDoor?
  18. Press Operators, how much do you pay them?

    $15.23 an hour would be slave wages in NYC. We have a really low cost of living here and operators who are starting out fresh make $15 an hour. Good operators with experience can expect $18-20 in this area, more depending on what else they can do.
  19. How do you dress at work? Uniforms?

    That's a nice looking shirt. I'd even wear that off the clock.
  20. New Local Sign Shop

    I'm not even sure why any of you even care. It has zero effect on you or your business. Why is this even a topic of discussion? This is like a neighborhood discussion group talking about the neighborhood "thugs" wreaking havoc when it's just kids walking home from the bus stop. This is dumb...
