  2. Some clients...

    I get it Phil. You are in a different, though related, type of business and getting paid for your time is the only way you make an income. You're not making a profit from marking up materials or labor, it's strictly a time based income. What I can't believe is business bitched about a $15 fee.
  3. Wind speeds, post sizes and hole size and depth for a 4'x8' panel ground sign

  11. Phototex on sloped wall/ceiling

    Not asking for it, but I thought it would look better if they matched. Plus I like to look of phototex for "corporate" office wall applications
  12. Phototex on sloped wall/ceiling

    We did a couple 10'x7' wall murals in the same area, don't remember if it was Photex or another brand, and they have held well. But I it sounds like I should go with something a little more aggressive.
