Hey guys, Looking for some suggestions as far as brands/types of adhesive vinyl that would be best for concrete wall application, around a 3 month uptime, in a sheltered but open environment (could be out below freezing temps). Thanks in advance.

Hey thanks for the suggestions guy. Dual lock I've looked into before, problem is even if you could eventually get the adhesive off (if you needed to remove it at some point) optimum application requires scuffing the paint which I think they aren't going to like. I was debating where the...

I would be impressed by any department that has the resources in this day and age to spend time on something like that, if that is even illegal(?) Seems weird. Considering the volume of obscene bumper stickers, window stickers, plate surrounds, hitch toppers, etc I can't imagine there is even...

No no no, he's quoting his 100% factual opinion based on his many years of experience in the insurance industry. Better do what he says, he's a random guy spouting off on the internet.

I'm not sure why you insist on continually being a knob, but ok. Sorry, I must've missed all of the other definitive answers that have been thrown out here, including yours. You know how you know an opinion based statement? When it says IN MY OPINION. Yeah, you know how much there is for...

So as I've been working on getting my media/advertising company going (and//or bringing about the apocalypse, depending on your perspective) I've run into a potential client with specific concerns. Running this past my local sign folks but thought I would ask here as well and see if you guys...

So in the same line of thinking if a bus runs an ad for a chain of restaurants, it needs to be put on the restaurant's auto insurance? No way. The definition of employee vehicle is if it is driven for work purposes, i.e. for deliveries or sales. Slapping what amounts to a large sticker on...

Because it's coming. It's ALWAYS coming :) Such a large chunk of the year is under 50 degrees it's important to know. Plus, by the time I get through the first round of contracts so sign those to rep it will be Fall or later before I can actually start selling to where there will be something...

Hey thanks for the responses, guys. After the post I read up on Rapidtac - interesting that it lowers the temp to make the signage adhere. Cool stuff. When using heaters/lamps around something like glass, any concern about cracking it from the heat differential?

Bing! I would just like be able to know a little of the process so I'm not relying 100% on what contractors are telling me and hope I'm not getting jerked around. Kind of like reading up a little on car repair so I will have an idea if the shop is jerking me around or not. Doesn't mean I...

Thanks. Northeast. Judging from your name you're Central?

THANK YOU. Speaking with local shops here it doesn't seem to be uncommon, you would've thought I said I wanted to turn coats made of kitten pelts or something. :) I'm glad some of these guys don't work in the construction industry.

Tip for you guys- The reason BofA is giving him a problem about the name is the fraud problems they have with business accounts. A $4k fraudulent check chargeback can trash a manager's annual incentive (as in, they wait the whole year to get it). If you think of a business account like a...

Thanks ;)

In the Midwest where I am, it's below application temperature for most of the adhesive-backed products about half the year. What do you guys that don't have a lot of space in your shop for vehicles or are doing outside window (etc) application do during cold periods? One rep I spoke with had a...

That is correct. On lower amounts its unlikely much attention is paid. However, if someone catches it they will reject it. And that could be several business days later, even if you have already spent the money. And then you have transactions bouncing all over the place. The "Just Deposit...

I'm sensing a little bitterness here. You've made so many predictions based on nothing but assumptions on your part I might as well just wrap it up right now. Bottom line, you can believe what you like - as it stands in my area the transit agencies I have spoken with have one or two suppliers...

Since we're talking about my post I'll toss in my clarification I posted in the other thread - I'm strictly looking at it from a perspective of brokering advertising, not signs. To add to the conversation here, if I wanted to actually be in the sign business, I would absolutely spend the time...

Ah, I see the disconnect. I'm brokering the advertising space, not the signs. The signs are a tool, not where I'm looking to make money. I want to have a little knowledge to be able to be able to explain the process to clients on either end and to make sure my sign contractors are...

Believe it or not I had considered it for the frame of reference.
