I'm looking for a pre-finished panel, preferably 4x10, in dark/navy blue. It could be 3mm ACM, fluted core, or 080 aluminum or any flat rigid exterior material which would take vinyl letters. My vendors don't have anything, even in their custom architectural panels. I could go powder coated...

You have to import the eps file into Omega and then assign the spot colors individually. And check the files to make sure there aren't extra paths. When importing into Omega there will sometimes be doubles, especially with centers of letters.

"Yes, that's the way to go except when you are out doing estimates and don't have your lift/bucket with you. When using a ladder and you're up 15'-20', you cannot pull a 5'x10' sign out safely" Which is when you guesstimate the size and include the cost for a return trip to pull the faces in...

If you have to have 4x4s shipped it may make it too expensive. I would source the 4x4s local sheet with reflective and do cut vinyl lettering

We have done the the overlap strip, not great but it works

Been discussed a hundred times. To help avoid this in the future add a disclaimer to all orders "All artwork is the property of XYZ Sign Co. etc." As far as this client goes you have to make a judgement call, if you think you may get them back continue to sell them the files, if you think they...

How much are you asking?

It's an interesting problem....lots dance floors are fairly slippery, so you use a non-slip laminate and somebody's ankle twists when they hit the non-slip after sliding across the smooth floor. Then you get sued for causing their injury? Maybe just skip the whole thing.

Are you sheeting the letters or applying a cut vinyl letter that has land in a particular spot?

Just looked this up, story says no one was hurt, thank goodness.

For that type of sign and height I'd also use ladders and two men

To answer your question "D" To add to the critique, it took me a minute to figure out it was the birds wing wrapping around the cup. Lose the sleeve on the other wing so it's more obvious. Is that the color of the tea, it's a really unappetizing shade. There's something going on with the other...

Do you have the border set as "clear"? If you do just remove the clear fill, have it with no fill.

I agree with Kerning, let them make the offer. If you are really thinking it's time to move on, don't get greedy, small independent sign businesses with no assets are not as easy sell.

We are using Imron right now.

Yep, worst was when I was slicing some vinyl between lines of text and somehow slipped and stuck the xacto in my gut...

We carry paint markers in the truck for little touch ups

Yes

Yep, we did the same, shipped it to them and they fixed and shipped back. Worked great.

I sold some useless to me HP printers for a couple hundred bucks on Craigslist. One guy bought one to try to get going for his sister who was studying architecture, the other to a guy who wanted to do art prints.
