Thanks for the picture. I often have issues with my channel letter coil as well having an edge that has slitter issues. I'm probably the only one that notices if the burr is beyond spec for such things because I do trimless letters. Anyway. I was going to try Evercoat featherfill g2...

I usually make stuff like this out of 5052 H3 aluminum 1/8" with MMA adhesive backer. I guess what I really need to try is a fast dry high build primer. My epoxy primer says you need to wait 4 days in order to sand it. I don't wait 4 days but I also haven't done much sanding beside...

Awesome. very helpful.

Not sure what you mean by outer .5" is that just outer edge of sheet?

I am not extremely picky but my clients are and my router is only a 4x8 which is fine since I mostly do smaller channel letters but when I get a 5' circular logo it kind of sucks. I have tried nearly everything mentioned that you do with some success but it seems that whether I spend 4 hours...

My process is taking .090 aluminum butted and there is a back piece of .090 going along seam with MMA adhesive. Seam is rock solid, I'm just looking for the best method to get a perfect finish without seeing either the seam or the bondo lines. My application requires a high level of finish...

We occasionally make larger signs out of sheet aluminum that have seams. We have struggled with hiding the seams after applying bondo and sanding several times. The finish hasn't been as good as I would like. Can someone suggest a good method or resource on getting a good finish. I'm...

Sorry, I tried to delete post. Since it got answered, I went back and inserted the question

What is the best way to build a seamless face lit sign for a larger logo.

Anybody have a trick to get stubborn channel letter coil masking off?

Hey Brad, do you have a good source of where to buy the threaded blocks?

like the square knot idea....I also usually make one shorter than the other. I personally don't like the design--looks too black and white for my taste....also has a set of reverse that are black returns with white faces.

Ok. Final results.

Time to try to 2447 or I like Ryze Signs suggestions of the clear with light control options

We don't use 2447 for face lit just push through and edge lit with the exception of black perf vinyl on face. The 2447 will have show through with clear adhesives and screws whereas the 7328 does not

They want 2447 so it looks best at night and we are going to do an aluminum skin on face that will be prepainted white. I will post pics when done. Thanks for everyone's suggestions!

These are great little machines....no takers?

I don't know much about vinyl unlike most in the sign business...can you install vinyl over vinyl in my case white block out vinyl over white vinyl from 3m.

I'm looking for suggestions on the best way to get an opaque face for a trimless channel letter that will have 1" acrylic face (maybe 7/8" reveal) that is edge lit with the face being opaque and white. I've done this in the past using white blockout vinyl that has a black back side. I wasn't...
