My client is planning on buying a Tesla truck for his pest control business. The body is stainless steel and he asked me if my vinyl will stick to it. Anyone have experience with high performance vinyl on a Tesla stainless steel body? I am wondering if there is a coating on the surface that...

I have jpg files on my hard drive, mostly sign drawings exported out of Corel Draw, that are appearing solid black when I try to import them. I just did a test and emailed one to myself and when I clicked on it I get a solid black rectangle. I can see that the image is there but it seems to have...

I have an old Graphtec plotter that plugs into my old computer via a "female" connector. My old computer died. I need to plug into my new computer that does not have that type of port on the back of the computer. Can I buy some kind of adapter to plug into a UBS port on the new computer? What...

I've been happy using EstiMate software for the past many years. Recently my hard drive crashed. I replaced it and re-loaded EstiMate but the data files I backed up are not copying over to the new install. I am looking at alternative estimating programs that may be similar. I want to be able to...

I'm thinking about using a piece of glass mounted to a lobby wall for a directory of tenant's names in vinyl. It's easy to remove vinyl on glass, unlike other substrates, just use a single edge razor blade and scrape off the old letters and stick on new ones. What are the down sides to using...

I ordered a roll of middle blue vinyl 751 Oracal in November from Grimco. Been getting the runaround. TubeLite can't guarantee when I'll have it either. They are saying Oracal is unresponsive to their inquiries. I prefer the Oracal 751 over 7125 3M or HP Avery since it weeds really quickly...

I have to install a rear window perforated film on an SUV that has a windshield wiper near the bottom center. Should I cut and patch around the wiper housing or try to remove it for installing the film, then put it back on the glass. Thanks.

I have been asked to paint some letters and graphics on an interior concrete wall. The surface is bare, unpainted concrete. It appears in a photo to look very smooth. The graphic has a stripe in it which I am assuming will have to be freehand painted since tape will not stick tightly to...

We are making a sign to go on an interior wall, size of sign approx 2'x3'. It will have LED lights to form a halo behind the sign panel. The lead wire will go through the wall up above the ceiling. Then it will connect (by an electrician) to the power from in the attic. Should we put a timer on...

I need to supply to my customer some decals to go on the body of a chemical/petroleum tank body. Need material to be resistant to chemicals. Just need one color lettering on a white background, small quantity. Who makes/sells these? Any merchants here make them?

We have a job to install 10" high letters on a Corten steel wall panel. Originally we were going to use stud mounted aluminum letters but the contractor is suggesting we apply a sealant and glue the letters using APS 500 sealant instead of stud mount. This will eliminate the aluminum/steel...

Thanks in advance.

I'm designing a sign for a day care business. The building is a barnyard red color. They want "kid friendly" colors on the sign as well as the barnyard (burnt) red. I'm not good at choosing colors. I know there is a science to working with colors. I'm looking for a program where I can pick a...

Interior office wall - wants to install lettering and logo on this surface. Looks like job I don't want or is it no problem? There are 12 letters 12" to 18" high plus a rectangular word panel 6" x 45". Naturally the letters would be stud mounted. Not sure about drilling in to this material...

I have a client who wants vinyl wall graphics in his new office. We waited a week after the wall was painted and tested some different vinyls on it. The test pieces failed. We don't have any problems putting vinyl lettering on exterior signs that we paint with latex exterior house paints. Is...

We have always done things on the "up and up" when it comes to business. We are licensed to install signs in several counties. Sign permitting has gotten much more complicated and expensive in the past few years. I'm tired of losing business to other companies who undercut our pricing and...
