I'm having difficulty finding something close since it's so outdated. "Calligraphy" type font right? This looks like it was hand painted, not computer generated. No cursive, has to be printed like shown.
Wasn't there a font in the 80-90's similar to this? I can't find it or remember the name...
Hi All, I'm going to be lettering a police car. I plan to letter the word POLICE with reflective vinyl. I don't use a lot of reflective so I am looking for advice on which to use. The word POLICE will be in yellow. Thanks in advance!
Hi All -- tomorrow I have my first install for translucent vinyl. It's a simple design with just black translucent vinyl size of 18" x 44". I'm expecting a temperature of 55 degrees...it states a minimum temp of 47 degrees. Is there anything I should be aware of or do differently than I would...
Monday giggles...found this on my door step this morning. The customer was in a couple weeks ago and said he would drop off his sign blank so I could letter the word "Pigeons" on the back of it.
Hi All - I have a customer who is leasing a race track. He wants to buy 2'x4' pieces of 6mil Alumalite and edging from me then give them to some of the sponsors to get lettered. He ordered 4 so far and could be 50 but he MIGHT have me make the signs...IDK, he doesn't know either. Makes no sense...
I used to have this font but I deleted it. Customer looking for the "6" for his race car. Googled it but not finding it...driving me insane right now. Thanks in advance!!
The sign I need to create has a red background and just the word "tattoo" in white on it 4'x8'. There is a two week wait for the Red Alumalite from my regular distributor and they don't want to wait that long. Would I be a fool to use 48" red vinyl and then apply the white over it? I don't do a...
I have a sign that needs to be replaced that is larger than I normally make. Size 4'11"x11'. The original artwork was on a white background...not an issue. Now, they've changed the background to dark blue. I'm looking for either a print that is large enough to cover the sign board or someone who...
I have a client who worked for "Nomad Pipeline Services" - it is now out of business. He is starting is own business and wants to call it "Nomad Surface Preparation" but would like to use the same font/colors.
I said I need to look into this. For your viewing purposes, I've created a quick...
Is there anyone in the Manitowoc/Sheboygan WI area that is interested in installing DiamonDiamonds and rear chevrons on a firetruck? I turned the job down but would like to help them find a shop. Thank you!
Hi All! I just had a customer stop in looking for some "In Memory of" decals. She wants me to replace the wording of the Harley Davidson logo with her own wording. This type of thing makes me nervous...please advise on how much I need to change the logo...or should I find something similar...
Hello, I have an alumalite oval sign and would like to put a white edge cap on it. I tried a semi-rigid PVC u-channel with some success but I'm not that happy with it - or my skills just aren't good enough with a heat gun? I found some edging from Outwater.com they told me would work. I'd like...
What type of photo resolution would I need to make a 3'x5' sign of a photo of a tractor for a barn that would be installed about 30' high on the front of a barn? The next issue is finding a photo of an Oliver 2150 tractor. Customer is an elderly man who is selling his farm to his son, the sign...
Hello, I'm working on a quote for a couple milk trucks - new account. I've applied vinyl in the past to stainless steel without troubles - but not to milk trucks. This company currently has lettering on their trucks and have been having issues with the vinyl peeling off the stainless tanks. From...
Hello, I have a small billboard in which a customer painted over the top of the old peeling vinyl lettering - looks horrifying. He suggested I letter over it but obviously, I'm not doing that. They rent the building so I was thinking of making a sign at the shop on Aluminum or something of the...
Hello! I have a police department in the area asking me to re-letter their cars. They had them lettered by a shop a few miles from me and after just a few weeks the ink was fading and the the vinyl is peeling...badly. The shop re-lettered them twice and both times, same results. I haven't done...
Hi Everyone, I have a customer with artwork that needs to go on a sign and I would like some advice on the best method. The artwork was provided by the customer via a business card which she created online but not sure where...the problem is it's an "eclipse" and it fades to black. The sign...
Hello, I'm looking for some ideas for a post and panel type sign for a business that measures about 2' x 4'. This will be my first time installing this type of sign. They would also like a smaller hanging sign underneath that says "HIRING" that can go off/on. I don't want to say that money isn't...
I have a 3 panel 6mm coroplast sign I'm putting together. Panels are 30" high x 24" wide. They will form a 3 sided sign so they need to be attached together on the 3 sides. So, I bought some plastic hinges, I have some that are 1" long and some that are 30" long. These things are a pain to get...
