I have a client asking me to make 4" thick letters. It's a smaller budget, so my plan is to cut 4" foam and apply either 3mm PVC or a thin sheet of wood to the back of the letters. The client thinks they can just Velcro the letters to the truss. I am worried that they would fall during the...

We are going to flush mount a 6mm cnc cutout of a 4'x4' crossroads configuration for a client. It has reflective vinyl on it and we don't want to drill holes into the face. What is the best way to mount this outside securely so that it doesn't blow off the building. What hardware would you...

I’m looking for a method of mounting the clear back of a fabricated aluminum halo letter to the letter itself. We used to use these small plastic tabs that we attached to the polycarbonate backs with rivets. We would then put a screw through the side of the letter into the tab and that would...

I am looking at buying a new laminator. We do a lot of vinyl prints for vehicle wraps, decals, etc... also a lot of mounting onto Alupanel sheets from 4X8 to 5X10. We presently use an EZ Taper that has served us well over the years. What is everyone using for vinyl wraps and board mounting and...

Hi all, I got an inquiry to do a short run packaging boxes and cake boxes. The cake boxes are not as thick as the packaging boxes. I only have an HP Latex 335. I'm not sure if there is anything (cardboard) that I can load into the hp latex directly. My idea is to mount vinyl to cardboard and...

Hey guys! It's the slow season and the owners are upgrading our old warn out awning for a mounted 4x16 foot rectangular sign with new overhead lights. We're brain storming how to mount it to the building because we don't want to go with the standard 2x4's and drilling through multiple spots of...

Hello All - We do giclee printing on high end photo papers that we then use an optically clear adhesive and mount those prints to clear acrylic. It's a great product but is somewhat challenging to do perfectly. Also, the material and labor costs can be very expensive, so we are looking into...

I am looking for a 2nd laminator in the 50"-60" range to be used for mounting prints to mainly ACM and aluminum material. It doesn't have to be a name brand. Any suggestions on some of the "off brand" laminators? I would like to stay under $2K. Thanks Larry

Hello everyone, We have a challenge on our hands. A customer of ours likes Illuminated channel letters but wants them mounted to the Glass wall of one of their conference rooms. I have never done this before and am having a hard time figuring out how these would be mounted without having to...

Hi Everybody, This might sound like a daft question... But what is the best way to separate the release liner / carrier paper on a double sided adhesive mount film ! Our 1st attempt at mounting a print to a board today, looked amateur at best ! It took 2 of us about 5 minutes to pick at the...

I am new to the sign making industry so thank you in advance for your help. I have a 5' x 10' sign (1/2" alumalite) being mounted between 2 4x4 posts. The posts will have a white veneer. Is there a product manufactured specifically for mounting alumalite in this application?

I am trying to quote 100 signs that are made of .080 aluminum that need to be mounted to a brick wall (sings are 20"W x 8"H). Anyone know a way to mount these other than drilling the brick and using anchors? Would something like construction adhesive or Liquid Nails be sufficient in holding...

I can not seem to find these anywhere. The set screws are so old and corroded that I can't get them out. I worked on one for about 1.5 hours and finally got it out, but that is just ridiculous when I have to do 24 more signs. Anyone have any ideas?
