  3. Core sawing

    I have a single side 4x8 sign to install on top of a concrete wall that is capped with bluestone. I want to sink 2"x2" square aluminum tubes for support behind it. Never used a core saw, but can rent one from the local tool place. Just wondering if anyone has any experience/tips. For instance is...
  4. Vinyl for raw wood outside

    I have a food truck that has some wood tables they put out when they are doing events. It's smooth but raw,no varnish or poly. First- I was thinking of using a sidewalk vinyl, does that make sense? Second- If I do use it, will it shred the wood if it is removed? Thanks
  5. Coroplast Sign Stake Options

    Spider stakes look nice but in my experience aren't sturdy enough for 18x24s that are out any length of time. If clients want something to hold up better I recommend the heavy duty metal stakes

    We've done many asphalt tankers with edge printed Gerber 220 with no issues

  13. Unusual (maybe) mounting options

  14. Attaching Printed Poster Paper to Painted Wood ?? Glue Type?

    Was going to mention the adhesive back paper, for next time. I would probably try a spray art mounting adhesive
  15. does anyone clear the edges of sign gold?

    When we first started doing SignGold jobs we used the Sealit pen. Now we apply a cast clear overlaminate over the whole thing with a 1/8" or so trap.
  16. Wondering if you might have a suggestion for static cling for unique application

    Gerber lexedge has a backer but is not adhesive back. There may be other manufacturers making something similar
  17. Outbid by competition - fight or flight?

    The bucket truck thing can work the other way too. Some big companies will send a bucket truck and to install a sign I can do with a pickup truck and ladder, so in those cases I have the advantage.
  18. Wondering if you might have a suggestion for static cling for unique application
