  4. Hard Coat for Inusaltion Board

    I have a customer who wants a couple "dog bone" post for her sign. The budget won't allow a real 3d sculpted post so I thought I'd cut two faces from dibond or signply and mount to two sides of 4x6 posts. Then fill in the open sides with insulation board, apply a hard coat then paint. In...
