  1. Keeping Small HDU Letters in Place while Spraying

    Hello, I have looked around and didn't find anything, so forgive if it has been mentioned before. We are painting some smaller (8-10"H x .75" material) HDU letters with an HVLP setup and are having a hard time keeping them in place while also keeping them elevated to dry. Being so light...
  2. Searching for Polarized Clear Acrylic or Adhesive Film

    Hello, all! We are searching for a solution for glare when viewing exterior clear acrylic. Unfortunately we aren't able to use the P12 or P99 acrylics, beause there needs to be optical clarity all the way through the sign. Does anyone know of a polarized clear acrylic, or perhaps a film or...

  4. Anyone taken the ISA Idealliance Color Fundamentals course??

    Hey guys, we have been trying to get our color management dialed in for some time now. Has anyone taken the Idealliance Color Fundamentals course through ISA? We have a color training DVD here that we've studied, but it's at least a decade old and still didn't clarify everything for us. The...

    Hey everyone! We may have some van and shuttle bus wrap removals coming up and I thought I would poll the masses and see how all of you deal with wrap and graphic removals in general.

  9. Shipping orders of multiple ADA signs?

    Happy Monday everyone! For those that produce ADA signs, or plaques, and ship, how do you package them safely? This is something I have been fighting and trying out different solutions for a very long time, with not much luck. To give you a better idea, we produce a lot of ADA signs with 1/2"...

    Hey everyone! We've been slowly working on our first vehicle wrap for our own company F-250. So, it got me thinking, I'd love to see what all of you have done for your own company or shop vehicles as far as graphics go.
